Andy mentions it being the "The real fuzzy guitar on Daylight Dreaming is the Jupiter through one of those little white JHS pedals" in the interview linked on the source. He is most likely talking about the JHS 3 series Fuzz.

Andy mentions using this microphone to record guitars in his Norm album. “I recorded the J-50 with an AEA R84 ribbon mic, but mine is sort of broken so it has this weird resonance happening."

Andy describes his drum mic setup on a Reddit AMA:

"Well, these days I put my r44 up over the kick and run it through my daking mic pre/eq and that sounds really cool... I'm really into the simplicity of a one-mic drum kit at the moment

I'm not 100% sure what I was doing on Norm... I don't track with compression because it's too hard to play and hear what it's doing at the same time...

shure 52 on kick

sm57 on snare

I may have used a bottom snare sometimes? probably a 57 too... though sometimes d19 has worked well

421s on toms usually

for some of this record I was using an akg d19 as overhead... but it started to feel a bit harsh in my super dry studio so I switched to using an advanced audio c12 clone

Norm is all tracked on my C&C superflyer kit (actually combo of two kits). Same drums we've been touring with lately, gold/green toms from my one superflyer kit, and then the beige 20" kick from the other superflyer kit. I really like how those drums sound".
