I'm often asked what guitars, amps, and effects I use, so here goes....

 

Guitars:

    2007 Gibson Les Paul Custom.

    1989 Ibanez Pro Radius - rock solid whammy bar, never goes out of tune...

    1996 USA Fender Strat Delexe 50th Anniversary

    1979 Gibson "The Paul" - Fantastic guitar - my workhorse for decades...

    2002 Taylor acoustic

Amp:

    Currently using a Line6 Vetta 2x12 for everything - this digital amp sounds amazing and includes every effect imaginable.  Saying that I do flip between this and wanting a straight Marshall combo and foot pedals so I don't have to pre-program what sounds I want to make in advance...

Stop Press 5-Aug-08:  Finally got my first all valve amp after 34 years of playing - why did I wait so long.  I'm now the proud owner of  a Marchall JVM-410C 2x12 combo, and it is amazing - everything I dreamed of.  Pics of and Riffs using it coming soon...

Recording:

    Until now all my vids were recorded on a PC using a combination of Adobe Premiere for the video, and the line output of the amp recorded separately for final editing.  I've recently got a MacBook Pro and my most recent videos were recorded directly into that using Apples Final Cut Pro utilising an Apogee Duet audio interface to take the line output direct from the Line6 Vetta.  This works really well and captures everything in to one piece of software.  Still learning but I think I'll be able to generate more vids more quickly in future...
