Newer board: [Joe Bonamassa — "Boomer" Time Clocks touring board (2022)](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/joe-bonamassa/boomer-touring-board-2022/). ## Signal chain **Order evidence — Source-described.** A source states the sequence. | # | Unit | Role | Zone | Unit evidence | Position evidence | Catalog page | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | Signature Cry Baby Wah (Copper finish) | Starts Bonamassa’s 2013 floor chain before tremolo and the amplifier splitter. | Front of amp | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/cry-baby-wah/ | | 2 | Supa-Trem | Adds amplitude modulation before Bonamassa’s signal is divided across the amplifier system. | Front of amp | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/supa-trem/ | | 3 | Amplifier Splitter | Marks the point where the mono pedalboard feeds the separate amplifier paths. | Front of amp | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/amplifier-splitter/ | | 4 | Lehle 1@3 A/B/C | Controls the Rack Systems splitter, selecting which amplifiers the floor signal reaches. | Front of amp | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/lehle-1-3-a-b-c/ | | 5 | Signature Fuzz Face | Provides Bonamassa’s thick vintage fuzz voice after the amplifier routing stage. | Front of amp | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/fuzz-face/ | | 6 | Pork Loin Overdrive | Blends a soft-clipped overdrive voice into the clean path before the primary Tube Screamer. | Front of amp | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/pork-loin-overdrive/ | | 7 | TS808 Tube Screamer | Acts as Bonamassa’s primary gain effect in the documented 2013 rig. | Front of amp | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/ts808-tube-screamer/ | | 8 | Micro Flanger | Adds a short metallic sweep after the gain pedals and before the final front-end driver. | Front of amp | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/micro-flanger/ | | 9 | FET Driver | Closes the documented front-of-amplifier effects path with a smooth, amplifier-like gain stage. | Front of amp | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/fet-driver/ | | 10 | DD-3 Digital Delay | Runs in the loop of the clean Marshall path rather than in front of the amplifier. | Amplifier loop | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/boss-dd-3-digital-delay/ | | 11 | Rotosphere | Shares the Marshall effects loop with the delay to create rotating-speaker textures. | Amplifier loop | Documented | Documented | https://pedalboardarchive.com/pedals/rotosphere/ | ## Reconstruction note Premier Guitar documents the front-end order explicitly. The DD-3 and Rotosphere lived in the loop of the clean Marshall path; they are shown after the front-end chain here and marked as amplifier-loop effects. Premier Guitar's Pro Pedalboards feature of January 2014 describes the same rig in prose and names one unit the rundown does not, a Lehle 1@3 A/B/C box controlling the Rack Systems splitter; it is placed next to that splitter because the source describes it as controlling it, not because its position was observed. ## Questions ### What pedals did Joe Bonamassa use in 2013? This dated entry lists 11 units: Signature Cry Baby Wah, Supa-Trem, Amplifier Splitter, Lehle 1@3 A/B/C, Signature Fuzz Face, Pork Loin Overdrive, TS808 Tube Screamer, Micro Flanger, FET Driver, DD-3 Digital Delay, Rotosphere. 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 Joe Bonamassa's pedals in? A cited source states the order. See the diagram and routing notes for the separate paths and any unconfirmed connections. ### Is this Joe Bonamassa's full guitar rig? No. This dated entry covers 11 units in the effects path, not every piece of gear Joe Bonamassa 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? 2013. Premier Guitar Rig Rundown. This is one dated setup as documented, 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 Premier Guitar, Rig-Talk. Among them a rig rundown, a photograph and a written article. The units are recorded as documented equipment, and the page was last audited on 2026-08-10. ## Sources 3 cited sources across 3 independent groups. Two sources sharing an independent group report the same observation and count once. 1.

[Pro Pedalboards 2014](https://www.premierguitar.com/artists/pro-pedalboards) — Premier Guitar (Specialist source · article), published 2014-01-28, accessed 2026-08-10, independent group `premier-guitar-pro-pedalboards-2014`. Board-by-board feature. Describes the same rig as the 2013 rundown but states the routing in prose: the wah feeds the Supa-Trem and then the Tone Merchants / Rack Systems splitter, which is controlled by a Lehle 1@3 A/B/C box, and a second Rack Systems box hooks the DD-3 and Rotosphere into the effects loop of the Marshall JCM 2000 heads. The Lehle is named here and not in the rundown. ## Related pages - Every documented board by Joe Bonamassa: [Joe Bonamassa board history](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/joe-bonamassa/) - [Joe Bonamassa — "Boomer" Time Clocks touring board](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/joe-bonamassa/boomer-touring-board-2022/): shares Amplifier Splitter, Micro Flanger, Rotosphere, Supa-Trem, TS808 Tube Screamer, Fuzz Face, Cry Baby Wah - [Adam Jones — Tool touring effects board](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/adam-jones/tool-dunlop-tech-board-2010/): shares Boss DD-3 Digital Delay, Cry Baby Wah - [Eric Johnson — Ah Via Musicom four-amp system](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/eric-johnson/ah-via-musicom-four-amp-rig-2018/): shares TS808 Tube Screamer, Fuzz Face, Cry Baby Wah - [Dave Navarro — Jane's Addiction split-path board](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/dave-navarro/janes-addiction-split-board-2024/): shares Boss DD-3 Digital Delay, Cry Baby Wah - [Philip Sayce — That Pedal Show studio signal flow](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/philip-sayce/that-pedal-show-board-2026/): no shared unit; a comparable signal path (Routing & Control, Filter & EQ, Modulation, Delay & Echo, Gain) - [Johnny Marr — Smiths BCB-6 board](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/johnny-marr/smiths-bcb-6-board-1986/): no shared unit; a comparable signal path (Routing & Control, Filter & EQ, Modulation, Gain) - Previous board in archive order: [Joe Bonamassa — "Boomer" Time Clocks touring board](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/joe-bonamassa/boomer-touring-board-2022/) - Next board in archive order: [Joe Perry — Aerosmith programmable gain rack](https://pedalboardarchive.com/artists/joe-perry/aerosmith-programmable-gain-rack-2024/)
