I just saw Robben play at a small venue (250 seats) in New Hampshire last week! To top off the evening he had Johnny A. sit in on a couple of songs in the middle and the end of the show.

His trio was unbelievable.

He played his Les Paul for the opening of the night and then moved on to his Telecaster. Closed the night with his tribute to B. B. King. A superb performance.

He was playing through his Dumble and Johnny played through a Marshall combo (couldn't see which one though). Had I been thinking more clearly I would have walked up to the stage to check out his floor gear.

Great Robben Ford references!!  Thanks.

Monmouth College Fight Song. Robben Ford with Yellow Jackets.

! No longer available

Perhaps one of the greatest live guitar solos ever recorded.

Robben's phrasing on 'monmouth college fight song', Genius

I include myself in the guitar players group which considers Robben Ford as a quintessence, alongside others who have contributed more than a style, a way to express their own personal hallmark.
Monmouth College Fight Song Robbed Ford guitar solo is for me, one of the brightest and instructive samples of his ability to combine melody, harmony, jazz and blues in one amazing pack!
"This solo captured live in Montreux is Ford as the absolute peak of his blues/jazz hybrid period playing effortlessly over half a dozen changes"

Saw Robben Ford last night at the City Winery in NYC. Great show by a fabulous performer. Nice venue too.

After the show, I snapped a couple of shots of his gear. I was particularly interested in his pedals since we already know about his Dumble. Maybe you guys already knew about his pedals too but I was curious. Oh, and no wireless - old school - cables.
As near as I can tell the board contains the following:

Polytune
EHX POG
Vertex Boost
TC Electronics HOF Reverb
Strymon Timeline
Zendrive
Dejavibe
Dumble footswitch for boost and gain?

Under the Polytune is his pedalboard I/O, and under the HOF is what I suspect is a Strymon power supply, perhaps the Ojai or Zuma. Under the POG and the Boost??? Maybe just something to act as a riser? I don't really know.

Here is a shot of his amp as well, just because "who doesn't want to see a picture of such a well known Dumble"?
