  • Saw the Adrian ...

    Saw the Adrian Belew Power Trio on Friday and they were excellent. Belew's getting an even wider assortment of sounds on guitar - the local music reviewer here in Tampa said he played better than did Jeff Beck, who was here recently.

    I can tell you he is using a Electro-Harmonix "Electric Mistress" for some of the Elephant Talk sounds. That's it at time mark 0:24. I don't know anything else about his rig, though.
