    On another site, discussing the gear Billy Gibbons uses live to get that awesome ZZ tone:
    "Also bear in mind that like his fellow tone kings, Billy can make jaw-dropping sounds come out of a ukulele plugged into a potato chip."

    "Always go heavy on the effects and try to blind the audience with expensive gear." - hubberjub

    I mean, no offense, but I don't really see why, like guitar players from Creed, or something like that, are on the cover of guitar magazines. Almost anybody can sit down and learn to play those songs.

    There were certainly some tasty riffs on that album.

    I think he applied picante sauce on his pickups.
