Interesting that Robben Ford admired Bloomfield more than Clapton - but wound up with Clapton's tone!

Re: Killer Blues Player

Thanks for the research Sonny and for the information Jon!

Also, I love to see great guitarists that are humble, such as Jon Woodhead and Jimmy Herring!

Re: Master Volumes Types

I use a 50k NFB shunt resistor to reduce the volume in my amp. This is with a 100k feedback resistor.

Killer Blues Player

Dave,
The guitarist was Jon Woodhead. Without a doubt, a killer blues player!
I believe he played on some of Maria's Cd's and he was a member of the seventies band Ace ["How Long"]. The show was Chicago Blues Jam on BETJ. I would love to know what kind of amp he was using.
