EQUIPMENT
too much to list....a lot of the classic vintage keys like Rhodes and a Wurly, too many electric guitars, a few guitar amps (vintage Boogie, Goodsell Super 17, Ampex 620), way too many pedals, electric bass, vintage Gretsch drumset, tres cubanos, xylophone, various percussion, recording rig, mics, live sound, and blah blah blah...yeh, I'm way into gear...
