Gear Rundown: Steve Lukather’s Pedalboard Secrets with Jon Gosnell (FREE 2290P PRESET)

Toto recently made a stop in our hometown Aarhus in Denmark, and naturally, we couldn't miss the opportunity to check out Steve Lukather's new pedalboard.

In this video Toto's guitar-tech Jon will walk you through each pedal on Luke’s board, including the latest addition to his setup, the 2290 P, a game-changer in achieving his iconic tones. And that's not all – stick around until the end for a special feature on the prototype of the brand new Music Man Luke 4!

The link for Luke's 2290 P preset is in the description. Look under the "Software" section on the right side to find it.

I love these classic rigs: guitar, pedalboard, amp, 4x12 box. Luke sound is amazing.

Love the work that Jon does, he is the keeper of the best sounding guitarist in recording history. Thanks Jon, Steve and TC Electronic

[RambisRants]

Jon is a MASTER guitar tech! On top of that one of the coolest dudes in the biz 👏🎸🎶💯

[jerseyrednek]

Steve is the best. I had to watch this twice to figure it out. Like everything he does, he makes it look easy.

[Crunch]

That is just amazingly great tone from the start to the end of the signal chain and masterfully demoed!

[stanesposito]

I saw them on this tour and was in front by the PA and didn't even need ear plugs. It sounded huge! I wish other bands would go for that sound. This guitar was my favorite that Luke used throughout the show.

Look up the video where Jon fixes Luke’s pedalboard on the fly during a song. True professional.

Steve's new single coil musicman guitar is so fire 🔥 those pickups are pretty hot...that tone is massive

[johanrautenbach]

Many changes to the rig. It sounds freakin amazing. Love the Helios compared to the Ecstasy. That 2290 sounds awesome

[indigojc]

wao, this update was like the Christmas gift you got and need it sooo much, just you did not know you need it so bad. Thank you for this incredible update!

Great video, but I do have a nitpick: At 20:53 he says "but you won't get that out of a modeller" - that's just false, straight up. This has nothing to do with the amp itself but all to do with the cab. If you get a modeller and put it through a poweramp, you can absolutely get feedback just like with an analog amp. Ask me how I know.

[BAND-MAID-USA]

This video just sold me on those Bogners. What a sound. But as far as no feedback on modelers, get a FreqOut pedal or on of the BOSS feedback pedals. Sounds exactly the same.

…and a Luke IV will made its way to my home…😂❤❤❤

[AlexisGitarre]

Honestly, Lukes best sounds were in the 80/90ies. He used the circular delay, reverb and pitch all in parallel. not just serial.

[jaycareaga]

Pickups aren’t stacks they are heat treated Cutlass single coils.
They utilize the new Music Man HT (Heat Treated) bridge pickup utilizes patent-pending heat-treated pole pieces with a large ceramic magnet and an overwound coil which increases output and widens frequency response

[seanhoward]

Wow that pedalboard is an engineering feat for sure.

[andypearce]

We love Luke! Come to the Woodshed guitar experience.

[AKustik]

You can still get feedback if you do modeler hybrid like Rabea does.

I'd agree with Beatles on Ed Sullivan. Though, I think the release of Appetite For Destruction is a very honorable mention. That album took the world with storm. Guitar driven music was big then, yes, but kids then and still want to be cool like Slash on a stage. When I ask my friends with no interest in guitar or rock music to name a guitar player, most, if not all, can only mention Slash. He and that album was essential to the longevity of guitar.
