Rig Rundown: Tedeschi Trucks Band

Guitar’s power couple of Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi share the stories behind their rigs, and bassist Tim Lefebvre walks us through his trippy pedal setup.

For something a little warmer, Tedeschi plugs in her 2001 D’Angelico New Yorker. According to Tedeschi, the pickups are a bit hotter than normal humbuckers. There’s a long scrape on the back of the neck thanks to a careless Delta employee in London.

Thanks to Ryan “Murph” Murphy and Bobby Tis for their help.
