Doyle Bramhall II

A volume and custom wah feed a vintage-voiced vibe and five fuzz positions before a buffered stereo section containing dual overdrive, echo, tremolo and reverb.

Guitar Magazine Japan photographed and numbered the April 2023 board with cooperation from guitar tech Mattias Johansson. Every connected device shown here is visually verified, but Johansson did not provide the full connection order; the magazine labels its own cable path as an informed reconstruction. The likely path is therefore preserved as reconstructed rather than cable-traced. The Fuzz Face replica was present but disconnected, so it is omitted. Power supplies are not audio stages, and the separate Carbon Copy-to-BD-2 mini-board is omitted because its relationship to Bramhall's guitar signal was not established. Premier Guitar's 2017 visual rundown independently confirms the long-term Vox-wah, Zonk, Experience and stereo-ambience vocabulary without being merged into this later snapshot.
