Otis Taylor's Gear
"And it’s always small amps. For this album, they gave me a small amp and put a Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster on it, and I was like, “Whoa, this is it!”"
This particular pedal was mentioned in Premier Guitar's interview under "gear list". The interview was done in 2017.
At 27:05, Otis Taylor can be sen playing a sunburst Stratocaster.
"[Guitarist] Eddie Turner, when he was in my band, told me, “Oh, you should try delay.” So I got a Boss DD-5 and the first time I put it in this setting, the sound blew me away. The setting is 12 o’clock, 2 o’clock, 12 o’clock, and 5 o’clock. And I can’t get that thing on other delays—only on a DD-5. I have a really good sense of timing. I control the accents and intensity with my right hand."
"In the studio, I play the banjo acoustically. But live I use Fender amps. I like Hot Rod DeVilles, so I can get a little distortion without taking an extra pedal. I like to steer away from pedals. I just use a delay and a tuner."
