John Mclaughlin & The 4th Dimension @ Bangkok: Rig

So here is the rig John Mclaughlin used on the concert on 18th of March at Bangkok.

Simple enough? Indeed it's simple. Korg Pitchblack to Seymour Duncan Twin Tubes, followed by MXR Stereo Chorus. All these are powered by Dunlops DC-Brick. Well, this all I can say: Simplicity

And below is a picture of his rig from his website. 

Yes. MXR Carbon copy delay is missing. I am not sure why though but prior to that, during the sound check, he had technical difficulties and said that his rig was not 'behaving'. That could have been the reason or he just simply didn't want any delay on board. 

He uses Line6 Relay G-30 wireless system so that he could free move around without the risk of trampling onto cables if he is using one. Then again, I realised something else during the concert:

(I had to 'steal' photos from others because I was bestowed with neither a mighty Canon EOS nor the photography skills)

He wasn't using the Line6 but instead, a cable. It could have been all due to the technical difficulties prior to the concert. Oh, as you can see he is using his PRS. I was expecting this Godin though. 

And yes, he doesn't use amps in his live setup (for those who don't know about it). According to him, it's about 20 years since he had stopped using amps. In a Premier Guitar Rig Rundown, he said that he wasn't trying to achieve a specific tone with this setup but it was basically to make the life of sound engineer easier. He said:

"The louder the volume is on the stage, the harder the job of the (sound) engineer upfront to get a good sound out of it"

So once again, Simplicity.
