Wendy Breaks Down Her Most Iconic Guitar Parts and Her New Rig!

Wendy Melvoin is a Grammy award-winning guitarist, producer, and songwriter who has written, recorded, and toured with some of the industry’s biggest names (Prince and Sheryl Crow, to name a few). Earlier this month, I built Wendy a new pedalboard using a Vertex Tour Compact with a TC3 riser. After taking the pedalboard on the road, Wendy stopped by the Vertex Showroom in North Hollywood to demonstrate how she’s been using her new rig! Working with Wendy was an absolute pleasure; everyone at Vertex is extremely excited to hear the music she creates with her new “Ambient Board“.
