Before Crobot\\u2019s set at Nashville\\u2019s Marathon Music Works, Bishop welcomed PG\\u2019s Chris Kies onstage to detail his trio of guitars\\u2014a beloved offset and a pair of P-90-loaded Teles\\u2014his parti-colored pedalboard, and the Victory VS100 Super Sheriff and Kemper Profiler that work together to create his massive sound.
