Great one minneapolisFunq ! guitar Thanx !

Can't find a good direct link with more details online. A specialised site like www.guitarplayer.com with a
magazine-history going back a few decades and which has reviews in their archives, has not one article on Jesse.
TheKid3121, maybe you can find out more if you contact Jesse via his myspace ? www.myspace.com/jessejohnsonfunk

Found this piece, where an approach for an amp-effect of him is described :

"Roland Jazz Chorus-120H
Transistor amp. I use it with two over-dimensioned no-name speakers. Nice stereo chorus. The built-in distortion produces a rough,
edgy sound that, when preceded by the CS-2 and optionally the TS808, becomes a full phat sound.
I get sort of close to the sound of Jesse Johnson (The Time, 1990) on "Pandemonium", Track 10 ("Skillet")."
