For fans of the band Wilco, here’s an image of guitarist Jeff Tweedy’s pedal board. The angle is not that great, but never the less, you can probably make out most of the pedals onboard.
From what I can tell, there are a couple of Ernie Ball volume/expression pedals up the far end. There’s also a [...]
