Guitars used by Billy Duffy on Sonic Temple
Gibson Custom 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue
Avg price: $5,008.10
On the Gear page of Billy Duffy's website, he says, "This is my favourite recording Les Paul. I occasionally take it on the road but mostly it’s for recording. I generally play songs from ‘Sonic Temple’ on the Les Paul Custom and songs from ‘Electric’ on the Les Paul Gold Tops. They just feel better for those particular types of songs."
Amplifiers used by Billy Duffy on Sonic Temple
Matchless DC-30 2x12 Combo Amp
Avg price: $4,585.38
On the Gear page of Billy Duffy's website, he says, "I’m a big fan of Matchless. Their amps were introduced to me by Bob Rock when I was recording ‘Sonic Temple’. I used them in the studio but didn’t use them live until after the ‘Ceremony’ tour. At that point I finally went and bought one in Los Angles and started using it in sessions and stuff. They’re a great sounding combo amplifier, better than a Vox AC 30 and better than a Fender Twin."
