lot’s o’ questions on tours about what i’m using for efx pedals.
so i thought i’d post two pedal board set ups. the first is what i use when touring with poet Ursula Rucker, and the second is for the power trio Spoonful. if you have any questions, just drop me a line. as with anything, through the years you experiment with all kinds of pedals and sounds and eventually come to what you like. it’s important to find you own personal sound. hope these setups help to inspire you.

latest news: i’m currently touring the king britt presents: sister gertrude morgan project. so i will be putting up the equipment used for this. still with the fenders tele thinline and 57 strat….pedal board is somewhat related to spoonful rig…vol, tuner, boss turbo overdrive, mxr distortion plus, boss sampler delay, line 6 dl4 delay modeler, dod preamp to
(whatever they have for me backline – fenders, hopefully)…see you on the road. tour schedule on update page.

Ursula Rucker setup
i use acoustic-electric guitars touring with Ursula,
a Takamine EF341 which has been my main
guitar since Les Nubians days. The other guitar i use is a Godin multiac steel with midi control for the Roland GR-33 synth.

Spoonful setup
This setup is still in progress. I’m experimenting with
the colours of ALOT of different distortions, fuzzes, overdrives, and preamps (ouch!) that push hard the fender deluxe reverb and fender hotrod deluxe amps. axes of choice for this one is the fender 57 strat + fender tele thinline.

*** latest edition: radial tonebone switchbone ab-y
class A switcher…amazing!
