Topic: Anyone have the old Guitar Shop rig blueprint from the mid 90's?

Can anyone scan the old Guitar Shop rig blueprint they had for Joe back in the mid 90's?  I remember seeing this back then, don't remember what equipment was used though.  For some reason a Big Muff sounds familiar but that isn't something I'd think would be on Joe's pedalboard.  Thanks!

That's funny because I'm a lurker over at the EJ forum! I never really post there because it seems like between you and Tommy you guys are THE authority on EJ's tone/rig.  Anyways, back on topic tongue I think this video is from the same time frame I believe and demonstrates Joe's early sound very well.  I think I can spot a Vox wah, Boss delay, Fuzzface?, footswitch for the Red Vibratone...definately a nod to Hendrix/EJ/Beck on this one!

Anyways welcome to the forum man!

Thanks Stratpaulguy86, it warms my heart to know my contribution to that forum is appreciated.  I'm just a guy that pays attention to the fine details. 

Can't watch that vid you posted since I'm at work...but I think I've seen it before.  Red Vibratone and red Marshall combos right?  I remember Joe mentioning those were 70's Marshall and that Rory Gallagher had used the same type live for a while when RG was moving away from his Vox/Fender rig.

Didn't get a good look at the pedalboard, though I've asked others if they could spot anything on the board.  He used type amps in the Lead Guitar Unlimited video if I'm not mistaken.  I remember he was using an MXR Phase 100 for Leslie sounds and a tube wah-wah whose manufacturer I can't remember. It's been many years since I've seen that video and I'm dying to get ahold of a copy.
