http://www.premierguitar.com PG's Jason Shadrick is On Location in Milwaukee, WI, where he catches up with guitarist John McLaughlin. In this Rig Rundown video segment, McLaughlin talks to us about using his Godin Freeway because of its tone and MIDI capabilities which are a big part of McLaughlin's current touring setup. In addition, McLaughlin talks about his use of effects: Seymour Duncan Twin Tube Classic, MXR Carbon Copy Delay, and a MXR Stereo Chorus. Even a guitar pick can't be overlooked, during his 2010 tour McLaughlin was using a Dunlop Jazz 3 picks, but he would scrap down the pick to get a better grip and playability.

  • johnny mclaughlin, you are a fucking legend mate. Love your work. great interview

  • it's not hard to play the notes, its how you put them together

  • John McLaughlin drinks coke! That alone justifies all the coke I've drank in my life!

  • this guy made my day, very relaxed, and seems very wise :)

  • @railcar123 He is, I met him close, very pure yet solid guy.

  • Seems like a very cool, nice man.

  • Very genuine, nice guy.

  • Simple - he's a legend !

  • speaking ENGLISH as a second language i mean. Forgot to write "english"...

  • @topdog2328 He was born in 1942 in Doncaster, England. I know it's a bit strange as his speech sounds a bit like he was speaking as a second language/with a foreign accent, even though his speech is very articulate.

    A lot of great virtuosos speak more fluently through their instrument(/s) than through their voices.
