Dan Auerbach – The Black Keys – Pedalboard Break Down

One of the popular posts here at EffectsBay was a break down of Dan Auerbach’s board from an early Premier Guitar Rig Rundown. I was stoked to see that Premiere Guitar went back and caught up with them again a few years later and did it again!

Just like last time, they spent some time with Dan Johnson – the guitar tech of the Black Keys and he spent some time to discuss what has changed.. and what stayed the same. As usual, he went into great detail! Check out the video here:

I thought it was interesting that they were using the Fulltone Custom Shop Tube Tape Echo, but now include a Strymon El Capistan, and Dan said they switched to it as the primary tape delay. That statement right there… says a lot about the Strymon El Capistan! If you’re looking for a realistic tape delay tone, but digital – you now know what to do.

Here is a break down of all pedals mentioned in the video:
