Joe Satriani is one of the guitar gods. We thought it was only right for us to do some research into what guitar gear rig Satriani uses (and has used). We gathered some good pictures from the internet of his guitars, amps, and effects. Enough talk, let's take a look at what guitar gear and equipment has been seen in Joe Satriani's Guitar Rig!
