We get the lowdown on the former CCR frontman’s rather surprising road gear (including his vintage Les Pauls and rare “bat guitar”), and talk to son and co-guitarist Shane Fogerty about his setup.
Fogerty’s effects rack—which is controlled from offstage by Whiston—includes a Wren and Cuff Box of War, three Xotic RC Boosters (named Moe, Larry, and Curly), a Boss RV-5, a Voodoo Lab Tremolo, and a Strymon BigSky (which is routed through the effects loop of his Cornford MK50H).
On May 3, 2015, John Fogerty’s tech, Dave Whiston, and son/co-guitarist Shane Fogerty hung with PG to talk gear before the band’s sold-out show at The Woods Amphitheater at Fontanel in Nashville.
Special thanks to Dave Whiston for details.
