By now, “Joe Bonamassa buys interesting piece of vintage gear” isn’t exactly breaking news. After all, the bluesman arguably owns the biggest cache of vintage gear gems out there – but his latest acquisition is worthy of the headlines.
His latest coup, unveiled via a fresh Instagram post, has seen him take custody of Rory Gallagher’s Number 1 Rangemaster treble booster. Gifted to him by the late guitarist’s family – who, until last year, had been charged with the safekeeping of his iconic 1961 Strat – Bonamassa says he’s “beyond blown away” by the gesture.
