Pearly #8 into a cable into the amp. No pedals, all amp.

eposyba, this is indeed a Blackstar Artisan 15. Billy bought the amp from me.

The amp is a Blackstar not a Crate. If you can find the video of Conan's last show on NBC you will see the amp there as well.

@supafuzz100 Mojo, noob!

[supafuzz100]

What else is he running in between the amp.

@EcoBGreen Same effect over here. Yes, quite a few blues guitarists have looked up to Billy/copied him...but none can quite do it in the manner or proficiency that he does. That Artisan 15 is a sweet-sounding amp in that large room, no? LOL

I noticed a difference of opinion based on some riffing Billy Gibbons was doing in the vid. Some thought his playing 'over-rated'.A firestorm of abuse promptly erupted.After many years developing his style and promoting it successfully,many people have copied him to the point that when he plays - people think he plays like someone at their local bar-and thus mistakenly think 'over-rated'.Growing up, there were a few guitarists that, when I heard them play-I knew exactly who it was.He was one.

@ke1mc2 boooring,,,,,, and find some new cuss words for your next troller, those are beyond out dated. You got to get creative when you insult or it doesnt work. I can piss someone off without using a single cuss word just like i did you, but dont you frett , [practice makes perfect and you will eventually get there. And with that i'm officially off to troll another thread. Good luck with that billy obsession....

Just said billy is an overated blues guitarist, I heard he was a legend so i pulled up some youtube videos to see what the fuss was about, and after watching it i was left thinkng are you shittin me, al the fuss over a guy who sounds like a novice warming up for his high school talent show.
