Josh Klinghoffer – Red Hot Chili Peppers – Pedal Board Breakdown

Premier Guitar’s Rig Rundown on Josh Klinghoffer is absolutely fantastic. Josh’s tech Ian Sheppard was interviewed, and he provided a great break down of Josh’s board(s). We’re talking a major set up consisting of three boards with a pile of pedals on each. Along with pedals, they go over routing, amps and guitars used. It is very impressive. Below is the video by Premier Guitar. If aren’t following PremierGuitar on YouTube, please do so, they do a fantastic job getting behind the scenes.
