Rig Rundown – Frank Gambale
Article & photos: http://bit.ly/FrankGambaleRR
We caught up with Frank Gambale while he was on tour with Chick Corea’s Elektric Band in Nashville to talk about how to conjure up a ton of tones with only a few ingredients.
Frank Gambale tours exclusively with a handful of his signature guitars. On the electric side he brings a pair of Carvin FG-1 models (his No. 1 is shown above). Over the years, Gambale has experimented with a variety of tonewoods, but this particular one has a maple body with a maple top. For strings, Gambale prefers D’Addario ProSteel (.009–.042).
Gambale runs his signature DV Mark Multiamp FG. It’s a three-channel affair that can pump out up to 500 watts. The Multiamp also houses any effects Gambale would need during a set.

so little gear (even though i'm sure it's very powerful/flexible)…nice walk through from an amazing (and humble) player…
Fort Jesse or tones I think digital amps are great and I think you can get similar tones with digital as you can with tube or anyone but when you have a crank tube and it expires great playing if you're a rock or blues player in my opinion it's the feeling that you get moving air you get from the response whether it's a super fast response or a sag response it always feels different than digital to me
The Trini Lopez Gibson. looks like the Barney Kessel Gibson I think
I’m tryna watch Frank! STFU, Chick! JK JK ????????????????
I didn't know Mike Ehrmantraut had a band?!?!?
what is the name of the song on the beginning?
Frank Gambale is literally a global treasure ????
Although this video is 6 years old, still like watching it. Frank is one of the nicest and greatest guys you can talk to. Totally approachable and will talk to you and answer all of your questions. Frank is a TOTAL CLASS ACT.
What a cool guy
It'd be nice if that keyboard would shut the hell up.????
Great player and seemingly a better man. Respect.
What amps does he use now? Does he still use the DV's or has he moved on to something else?
T h a t f u c k i n g k e y b o a r d ????????????
I got to see Frank play and meet him in Tampa many years ago at a guitar show. He is very humble and nice guy. They don't make them like that anymore.
Dave Weckl lurking in the background is hilarious 🙂
great guitarist and I think that because of his teacher/tutor/lecturer background he is very articulate and knows what he's talking about … such a talent
Frank the kids found out you shred on acoustic in A Maj with Sharp 5
Now they want to hear it on electric with your FRANKenstein lead tone involvement.
You can't back out on this Frank.
They know you play fusion like a boss.
is the interviewer John Boy?
Anyone know what that cable from franks amp is running into? Looks like a little black box which then runs into a direct box?
