For this tour Bonamassa stripped his “pedalboard” down to bare essentials: a Joe Bonamassa Signature Cry Baby Wah and a Way Huge Overrated Special. The pedal, designed as a joke by Jeorge Tripps and based on the company’s Green Rhino, may see a formal release in the future. Behind the amps sits a TC Electronic Stereo Chorus+ Pitch Modulator and Flanger on a subtle setting.
