    @scott28280 it says part 3 effects & amps
    Presumably parts 1 & 2 are about something other than effects and amps

    At 0:42 he turned on the TC Electronic Stereo Chorus Flanger, which is either in Chorus or Pitch Shift mode and sends its stereo output to two Fender blackface Twin Reverb amplifiers. At 0:53 he stomped on a true bypass effects loop, and in the loop there is an Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man. At 1:12 he turned on a (probably vintage) MXR Dyna Comp. Hope that helps.

    @MegaJuevos Underneath all the vitriol, I think you come close to making a couple of good points.

    However, I’ve seen all three in concert and I’d have to say that Vai held the room in a freaky spellbinding way. He doesn’t have the best guitar sound in the world, but then again, the guy is otherworldly.

    Satch is a great writer and a solid player. I’ve seen him a few times and have yet to witness a mistake.

    All three are great. There’s room for everyone to be as such.

    Cheers.

    Joe Bonamassa has his own style too, there are obvious elements of Eric Johnson though but Joe never hides that. It’s all influences, not ripping off. I think in the past Joe Bonamassa has sounded a bit TOO Eric Johnson, but now he’s found his own thing.

    What amps does Eric’s “Dirty Rhythm Tone” consist of?

    Please reply.

    Joe Bonamassa must have seen this video, because he rips off Eric Johnson in a vulgar fashion. Eric Johnsons use of chording and lead intervals are purely his own style and sound.

    Megajuevos shut the f*** up satch and via both did gear bids and are extremely humble yea vias wired but that’s who he is now if you said yngwie I could understand he’s a little self-centered but he’s a good guitarist for what he does

    id pay a million bucks if i were gates, just to hang with EJ for an hour and fiddle with his gear(with his approval of course) and make him do a few super loud blazing runs!!

    I really like the clean rhythm with the chorus and memory man best.

    No …… you are a wanker. Who made you the ‘what is cool and what is not’ police.

    To claim that Satch is ‘full of himself’ is the most ridiculous thing i’ve ever heard. Clearly you’ve never heard him in an interview. And I agree Vai can be a bit strange sometimes but thats his personality and thats what makes his music unique too.

    Go smoke some more weed or something.

    Sorry Satch and Vai….

    Youre way too full of yourselves to ever be as cool of a GUY as Eric Johnson is.
    Those two guys wouldnt do a vid like this. And if Vai did, he’d be making all his gay-ass faces while he plays that only look dumber the older he gets.

    Eric Johnson pays 10 times the attention to his sound than either Vai or Satch. Those beautiful soft chords EJ does is a level of finesse that Vai nor Satch has ever come close to.

    They are wankers ~ EJ is not
