Yngwie Malmsteen has a few West Coast shows coming up in January, including some SoCal dates timed for the 2018 Winter NAMM Show. In preparation for the trek, he recently got together with Sweetwater's Nick Bowcott (of Grim Reaper fame) to show off his current touring rig. This includes the few pieces of gear Malmsteen actually plays through each night and a lot of other stuff that looks cool onstage.
