Joe Bonamassa breaks down some of the most famous guitar tones in history from Eddie Van Halen and Jimmy Page to Paul Kossoff and Andy Fraser of Free. In this clip, Joe explains why the raw, isolated guitar tones and iconic sounds of these guitar legends are often far less “EQ’d” than you think, and why context is everything when chasing tone.

In the full video, Joe goes even further — sharing his essential gear advice for players of all levels and revealing the ONE piece of equipment every guitarist should own.
