How does Joe Bonamassa get his incredible Gibson Les Paul tone? Are you curious about Joe Bonamassa’s guitar settings? This is the video for you. In this brand-new interview on the Gibson Gear Channel, the modern-day blues-rock master sits down with Dinesh and demonstrates how he dials in his guitar settings depending on the sound of the room, sharing invaluable Les Paul tone tips that will transform your sound. Watch as Joe shows us how to use the Les Paul tone controls to unlock more sounds.

Learn how to use your guitar’s onboard controls for the best rhythm guitar and solo tones, as Bonamassa demonstrates how the interactivity of the pots and pickups in the middle position allows you to create an expressive palette of sounds that you might not realize your Les Paul is capable of. And the masterclass doesn’t end there – in addition to tone tips, we also get an exclusive Joe Bonamassa guitar lesson as he shows us how to break out of the pentatonic blues box and use different parts of the fretboard as ‘launching spots’ for a solo.

As if that wasn’t enough, you’ll also hear Bonamassa reveal how not warming up for gigs has improved his phrasing, his thoughts on the art of playing live with other musicians, and how understanding EQ and using your guitar’s volume control are of paramount importance. In addition, Joe offers advice for battling self-doubt and getting out of a guitar-playing rut, discusses the best gig he’s ever played, and shares some wise words from B.B. King that still resonate many years later.

We hope you enjoy watching this as much as we enjoyed filming it!
