Re: JB's new (old) SG
I was going to guess he played Young Man Blues. That guitar screams Pete Townshend.

Re: JB's new (old) SG
He must've had a change of heart..
"Im really not a fan of SGs in general... They are thin sounding to me.. You can disprove what I just said by listening to Derek Trucks, Frank Marino and Frank Zappa.. I just can't get on with them,.. Its the one guitar out of the fine line of Gibson products I don't own.. and please don't come back and say do you owe a Firebird x LOL... No I don't own one of those either... so I guess its 2....."

Re: JB's new (old) SG
Sounded Amazing. This was my first Joe B show. I know he is known for his Silver Jubilee but it appeared to me that we had a backline of older Marshall stuff and not his usual rig. Anyone get a closer look ? The cabs for instance looked like something he brought out of the collection.

Re: JB's new (old) SG
A Very Cool Guitar Indeed...Vintage always sound better than the VOS Reissues....Those P-90's will melt the paint off the walls...:)
And so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually.........
Re: JB's new (old) SG
The best part about this is that he buys a guitar from a pawn shop and hours later he's playing it on stage in front of a few thousand people. That cool!

Good eyes. He has changed his rig. There is a topic called "Joe's New Rig" that explains what he's got on the road.
Re: JB's new (old) SG
Don't forget Clapton with Cream, Iommi with Sabbath, and Angus Young. All have fantastic TONE with an SG.

That leaves just the Firebird X!
Re: JB's new (old) SG
All I saw were the Marshalls. But, rumor has it that Joe is coming out with a signature series amp. My friend and I talked about how he might have that one tucked in behind somewhere. Only 3 of the amps were lit up.

Re: JB's new (old) SG
Looks like the new Pete Townshed Signature model that Gibson released earlier this year. Always been a fan of SG's but only in my favorite flavor cherry red.
