Ah ha! I knew there had to be a secret.
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.

Ah, an album flashback if there ever was one... I had it on 8-track and remember listening to is in the '63 Chevy Impala I had. I really likes how big the back seat was! Good for tasty riffs indeed.
Looked exactly like this one, minus the wheel skirts.
