EQUIPMENT

Excellent variety in musical gear. Many choices in guitars, amps & cabs & pedals. (Tone chaser) Fenders prefer Princeton & Tweed Deluxes (5e3 circuit), Celestion & Weber speakers. Have also: various Marshall, Bogner, 65 Amps, Matchless, Egnater, Dr Z, VHT, etc. (whatever is called for) Prefers Tele’s, Strat’s, 335’s, Les Paul’s. (Likes fat necks) I Like a bit of grit, when appropriate, and lots of sustain, no mudd, and varied sparing effects, with just a little bit of delay.... The endless tone quest goes on....
