This was definitely an intense learning experience for me. I was most shocked at how SPARSE his pedal board was. A wah, a vintage Big Muff, broken Zoom pedal (possibly modded?), Boss Digital Reverb, Boss Pitch Shifter w/ expression pedal, Fender twin blackface amp. How could this be? How were the sounds I was hearing congruent with this gear? These and many questions I wanted to ask him, but after the show our language barrier was hugely noticeable. I told him that was the greatest guitar experience of my life. He smiled, nodded, handed me a t-shirt and said, "10 Dollars."
