Dewayne "Blackbyrd" McKnight From NAMM 2010 at the Framus Booth

As seen on http://barefootmusicnews.com At the 2010 Winter NAMM Show we caught up with legendary guitarist, Dewayne Blackbyrd McKnight, who was performing with TM Stevens (Shocka Zooloo) and Jonas Hellborg at the Warrick/Framus booth. McKnight had just been signed by Framus amps that day and we were lucky enough to see him perform on a Framus amplifier for the first time since his endorsement. They had quite a crowd gathered as they pushed the envelope on the decibel limits set by the NAMM Noise Patrol.
