NAMM 2012 • Joe Bonamassa Interview • Wildwood Guitars‬
Joe Bonamassa: ‪jbonamassa.com Site: ‪www.wildwoodguitars.com Ladies and gentlemen, come! From behind the Gibson wall of glory we snuck to find none other than blues phenomenon Joe Bonamassa! Join us as Joe sits down with Greg and Wildwood Guitars to discuss the newest artist signature guitar to come out of the Gibson Custom Shop--the Paul Kossoff Signature. Joe and Greg run through the Joe's signature models, discuss influences, both shared and individual, and droll to the allure of Anaheim's fine dining. Joe discusses his upcoming tour, and proceeds to share his affection for the New York Football Giants much to the dismay of Wisconsin resident Gregory K! Discount double-choke! ~ Joe Bonamassa Bio ~ Joe Bonamassa--a child prodigy of the highest order, and yet that was over twenty years ago. Before he could drive Joe had already caught the attention of Blues Rock legend BB King, and had shared the stage with the likes of Buddy Guy, Stephen Stills, and Gregg Allman. Bonamassa later joined various bands, but seemed to outgrow them all having since released ten critically-acclaimed solo albums. The awards racked up continue to pile in a corner, and if names of artists Joe has shared the stage with held physical weight then he would be buried under a mound reaching the heavens.

NAMM 2012 • Johnny A Interview • Wildwood Guitars
Johnny A: www.johnnya.com Site: www.wildwoodguitars.com He's back! The one and only Boston-Baked Badass Johnny A sits down with Wildwood Guitars and Greg Koch in the Gibson lair! Listen as Johnny tells us what he's been up to—his touring schedule, his new studio and soon-to-be-released record, and what's coming down the road for the Gibson Johnny A Signature model guitar! The rapport between Greg and Johnny is uncanny in the best of ways, and get thirsty as talk drifts to glory of the bean! This one is something special! ~ Johnny A. Bio ~ To find a guitarist with as much soul as Johnny A would be a difficult feat. Not since the likes of Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, and other awe-inspiring legends has there been a player with a touch like Johnny's. As a young man Johnny fronted bands out of Boston for years, sharing the stage with the likes of Aerosmith, Bob Seger, Yes, and numerous others. Eventually Johnny decided to branch away from the full-band mentality, becoming a guitar mercenary of sorts. As a hired gun Johnny found himself playing with everyone from Delaney and Bonnie, to Peter Wolf and Bobby Whitlock. Years passed, and Johnny's notoriety grew. In the early 2000's he teamed up with Gibson Guitars to create a signature guitar unique in style and tone that seemed to match Jonny's style. Both the model and the player have only been rising in popularity, and there seems to be no end in sight.

Greg Koch, a beast of both persona and guitar-mastery, couples his sickeningly magnetic personality with the guitar to create a style of playing that is both completely unique and deplorable at the same time. As a huge fan of the legendary Big Jim Hendricks Greg has taken all that is good and righteous about blues guitar and warped it into a ridiculously fantastic amalgamation of melodic defilement and mind-blowing creativity. Over the years Greg has shared the stage with everyone from Joe Bonamassa to Les Paul himself, never relenting, never ceasing to bring the ruckus.

Blue collar born and raised Pete spent his early years as a musician working in Detroit for Chrysler and Uniroyal, and played the blues until the wee hours of the morning.

The momentum only seemed to grow as he made his way on to the Tonight Show, Saturday Night Live, and even found himself behind the console ...
