Billy GibbonsPedalboard, 1967
Billy Gibbons played a Fender Jazzmaster into a Vox Super Beatle with the Moving Sidewalks in 1967. Something saturated that signal on 99th Floor, but no source names the unit, so the archive leaves it unidentified.

Gibbons directly recalls playing a Fender Jazzmaster through a Vox Super Beatle in the Moving Sidewalks era, and Premier Guitar independently identifies the white 1963 Jazzmaster. No credible interview, period photograph or cable trace found in this audit identifies a floor fuzz used on 99th Floor. The single neutral block is therefore an unresolved research marker, not a claim that Gibbons used a Maestro Fuzz-Tone, Fuzz Face or any other specific pedal. It may represent amplifier distortion rather than a separate device.
No source publishes this sequence. The units are ordered by conventional signal-chain practice, and any documented routing zone is kept as recorded.

MethodologyQuestions about Billy Gibbons's 1967 pedalboard
- What pedals did Billy Gibbons use in 1967?
- This dated entry lists one unit: Unidentified 1960s Distortion Source. This is the recorded inventory, not a claim that every connection or model identification is confirmed; see the evidence and routing notes.
- What order were Billy Gibbons's pedals in?
- The complete order is reconstructed, not observed. The layout follows the cited routing constraints and the archive's signal-chain convention where the sources are silent: Guitar → Unidentified 1960s Distortion Source → amplifier.
- Is this Billy Gibbons's full guitar rig?
- No. This dated entry covers one unit in the effects path, not every piece of gear Billy Gibbons owned or used. Floor pedals, rack units and routing devices are included only where recorded; omitted equipment and uncertain connections are explained in the notes. It is not a complete or current rig inventory.
- When and where was this pedalboard used?
- 1967 Moving Sidewalks era. Moving Sidewalks single and live era. This is the core signal path documented for that period, not a career-wide gear list.
- How does the archive know what was on this pedalboard?
- 3 cited sources, listed above with the date each was read, including Guitar Player, Premier Guitar. Among them an interview and a written article. The units are recorded as reconstructed equipment, and the page was last audited on 2026-08-04.
