Premier Guitar separates the acoustic and electric effects and names all six audio effects shown here, but it does not publish a cable trace. The displayed sequence follows the article's electric-effects list after omitting the Switchazel A/B box and tuner as utilities. The exact Fulltone tremolo, POG generation and Ernie Ball volume model are not identified. Thompson's 2015 interview independently confirms Fulltone tremolo and OCD as touring choices; Vintage Guitar identifies a Dunlop rotary-speaker pedal as a Ship to Shore studio effect that Thompson explicitly would not rely on for touring, so it is not merged into this board.
