I like the way that the three speakers kind of break up at low volumes. As far as effects go, I’ve got a Fulltone Octafuzz, Ibanez Tube Screamer, Malekko Delay, Analogman Delay, and a Crybaby Wah. That’s about it. Nothing too crazy.Last time I looked a Fender Vibro-King was about 5,000

      +71hammyman All of my guitars are Epiphones. But we both know the brand as it is now isn't the same as it was historically. Epis aren't manufactured in the US anymore, for example. The materials and components aren't of the same level as the guitars produced by its parent company, for another.
      However, my point was simply that, as a fan of Epis, it's nice to see talent like this playing one.

      Eeh, I hesitate to compare him to Hendrix just because they both black and rock a dirty guitar. Gary Clark is definitely more blues than Hendrix. Hendrix did blues plenty too of course, but GCJ has more of a focus on it. Now if GCJ did Red House, I would cum...

      Yes he is more blues then Hendrix but when I hear him it makes me think of Jimmy. Maybe it's the type of distortion he uses and the way he plays solo idk.

    I saw Gary at Brazil, when he played before Eric Clapton's concert for 50,000 people! He is amazing, I loved "I Don't owe you a thing"! And in the end, he played the encore "Crossroads" with Eric. It was amazing!

    My favorite "new" artist. Crazy it took so long for him to really get noticed.
