Does anyone know how to emulate the sound of Lonnie Mack's guitar and amp in the song "Baby What's Wrong"

i think thats his flying v and an old magnatone amp-
any humbucker equiped guitar thru a tube amp should get you close. then you just need giant lonnie mack hands.

Thanks for the response Fraser - I can replicate the Magnatone amp no problem with some of my gear like the Roland virtual amp and Behringer's V-Guitar combos.
What I don't know about yet concerns the digitization of items like the Leslie's he used and how to achieve the settings, with which devices etc.

I actually had a brief encounter with Lonnie in '63 in Edmonton AB.
It never occured to me to enquire about settings, sounds etc. I was so impressed with him as a player. Like a kid looking at an idol.

Thanks for the offline email:
There are evidently several "Leslie Emulators" on the market.
A Google search led me to 3 pedals that mimic the Leslie speakers.
Thanks for the tip on the search - Doug
I am looking for tablatures for Lonnie Mack's "Baby What's Wrong With You"
Any ideas?
