  • Oct 14, 2011 -- It's been a busy year for Derek Trucks, who released the first album (Revelator) with his new group, The Tedeschi Trucks Band. Formed with his singer-guitarist wife Susan Tedeschi, the band also has toured extensively. In the midst of the craziness, the SG-playing slide guitar virtuoso recently stopped by Gibson's New York Showroom to share his memories of legends such as Les Paul and Joe Walsh and talk about how he developed his unique playing technique.

    His humility is incredibly refreshing, and it has everything to do with what makes him such a great guitarist. It's all about the music for him. Ego never gets in the way. And that's a rare thing. Love him!

    I'm really touched by their Les Paul story. Them being on stage with Les Paul, Him playing guitar and Susan singing and their son, 6 months old at the time there with them. Susan and Derek are such beautiful people, I really admire and respect them so much and I hope one day that myself and my family can have the privilege of hearing them play In person.

      Tyler Pettit​ I know it.
      They're me and my family's absolute favorite musicians.
      Its definitely my dream to see them with my husband and our daughter.
      If my husband wasn't sick with lung disease and I wasn't disabled by EDS, I would so b there!

    Trucks is the best! His needs are simple. One guitar, a slide, no pick...and yet the sounds he gets with very little or no effects. Truly special musician.

    Favorite guitarist- speaks through the guitar better than I could dream of. I thought something was wrong when I couldnt quite play as comfortable with a pick as my fingers. Even though classical, flamenco and folk is not really my style. Best example of being you and don't fight it just be your best at it

    Joe Walsh messaged me on Twitter and I was getting a bit negative about my life he started speaking to me in a very profound philosophical way I demanded to see that it was really him and he suggested to video chat then I've decided that was enough and never got back to him.
