I love CCR too, one of the key bands that got me into guitar in the first place!!!

As far as gear goes i dont have a clue though, i do know however that John used a rickenbacker something-a-rather for stuff like suzie Q, or so he said on a live studio recording tape ive got.

Absolutely. John Fogerty is one of the best songwriters and singers that ever lived.

Re: CCR gear?

One of John Fogerty's guitars was a Ric that he modified so heavily that he relabelled the headstock with the name "Acme".

Isn't "Born On A Bayou" one of the greatest rock 'n roll songs ever done by anyone?

Re: CCR gear?

well bout damn time one of us speak up for the green river gang... JF's sound was and continues to be so basic yet effective, I spent many teenage bedroom jam sessions learing those licks and sounds. Long flow the riverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :dance:
