Guitars 10

Mine is a 2002 model in blue agave with a rosewood fretboard. From the Please Standby EP era (2008) until 2014, it had a slanted humbucker in the bridge and various stickers. Currently it has been returned to the stock S/S/S configuration and all stickers have beem removed. Used as main live guitar in Foxes Have Holes, as backup and drop C# guitar in Please Standby
Mine is vintage sunburst, used on nearly everly song ever recorded by either Foxes or PSB
Owned in white, used as primary live guitar in Please Standby, used by Jacob in Foxes Havr Holes
I got this thing a week before I got my '61 SG Special. I like it, but I wish the neck wasn't set so far in. The pickup is also really microphonic, and of course the tuners are shit, but it's a lovely little guitar
I got this thing for christmas one year. It always had wiring problems, though. I left it at an old guitarists house, and he moved with it still in the house.
but quickly replacing my mexi as my main strat

Bass Guitars 3

I used this thing on just about every song on the new Foxes Have Holes album. I doubled the thunderbird a few times, it is the bass guitar on Jolly Green Planet Earth, and it's the over the top fuzzy baritone sound on 11:38

Amplifiers 4

I tend to stick to the top boost channel. I keep the bass at about 10 o'clock, the treble at about 2 o'clock, and the channel volume at 5 o'clock. Master volume and tone cut vary by room size

Effects Pedals 6

Studio Equipment 6

DAWs 2

Our primary DAW from 2011-2017, we recorded Foxes I&II on Studio One Pro, as well as the original psb sessions. Any further tracking will be performed in Reason 9.5, but we may continue to use Studio One for mastering and album sequencing
my main soft synth engine from 2011-2017, we did the first two Foxes Have Holes albums with version 5, as well as some elements of the PSB record. I'm personally a huge fan of the Maelstrom, while Jacob favors the Thor, and we made great use of the NN-XT and NN-19 samplers.

Microphones 4

Great vocal mic, been using this thing for seven years, intentionally rough on it, still does it's job every night

Other Gear 5

This thing sounds so damn good on drums. Put it on a parallel bus and slam the piss out of it. Thank me later
I use this thing on basically everything. Guitars, vocals, bass, keys, horns, strings, even drums sometimes. It's simple to use, and immediately improves the tone every time
We used amplitube almost exclusively on the first Foxes Have Holes record, and quite a bit on the second one. I really like the fender models, though they take a bit of EQ'ing to get the brittleness tamed. I think where software emulation really shines is as a slight lift under a less than ideal live amp sound
I only ever had the head, never had the cab. Had a couple heads, actually. I used to blend it with my Marshall Lead 15, which is the basis of the sound I still go for
