EQUIPMENT

As someone else on this site said, Equipment? "Oh, Yeah..."
On stage NCFOM puts everything through the PA. We use a Mackie DL32, four QSC 12's and a QSC KSUB.
We are blessed to have sound-man Roger wirelessly mixing our live gigs. As I always say, "If we sound bad it's our fault, if we sound good it's coz of him."

On stage I currently use 3 guitars:
2013 Gretsch Tennessee Rose
2001 CS Tele
2012 Parker Maxxfly

From the videos you will see that in recent years I've also used a 2008 Parker Fly and a 2001 Rick Turner Renaissance, an 88 HLE Strat, and a 84 Les Paul Studio.

Thanks for reading down this far!

Mark the Brit
