Marcus King's Pedalboard

During Marcus King's recent Rig Rundown, he detailed and demoed the various sounds lurking on his current touring pedalboard.

Before his September 29 gig at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium, touring behind his recent release Young Blood, he entertained PG’s John Bohlinger—with some help with the details from guitar tech Cody Bates—with a close-up look at his current touring rig. Dig in!

John treats all these artist with respect and admiration. Let's not forget how awesome John is though. To be complemented by John is a high honor.

I only watch Rig Rundowns that are hosted by John...his enthusiasm and knowledge are authentic and is a true breath of fresh air!

Classic pedal board! Love that Phase 100.

His gain staging is simple and elegant. Suits his style perfectly.

I saw him in St. Louis a few weeks ago. It's like this guy walked in from 1975 and blew our minds. He's only in his 20s, so there's about 75 years of Marcus King to go.

Nice to see the Rotovibe get some love. Super cool pedal

Just another perfect reminder that player is first effect in your “signal chain”. Marcus is the real deal.

MK is so chill and down to earth. I feel like he would be a great guy to sit next to anywhere.

This kid is for real. Was at a party and heard some awesome background blues/rock. Shazaam'd it and low and behold, Marcus King. Hope he rises to the level of Kenny Wayne Shepherd and beyond.

"Yeah I keep it a little slappy..." love it

Holy treble Batman, guess that's how you cut through the mix! Sounds killer though, great episode John.

Classic Scofield maxed out chorus setting at the end with a bit of "Hottentot" to match. I like this guy.

[rareform]

Good setup Good playing ! See the difference between practice playing and gig playing ?

[ozgonc]

Marcus has great comedic chops too. What a guy.

[JeffStrickland]

Great episode! Love Marcus' playing. Killer tones and those savage, wicked licks that rip your head off and summon the stankface at the same time.😆

man.... he gets better every time i see some Video of his

[thesoundpurist]

Simple and efficient gear for strat. Best sounds you can hear. Makes you forget about all hype on so called new revolutionary gear.
