GEAR:
  • Blank
  • Boss BF-3 Flanger
  • Meteoro Demolidor FWB-20

Hmm, that's interesting. Musicbrainz (what we key off of when adding new artists) has two different entries.

I'll combine and add "aka King Buzzo" to the name so people should see it in search going forward.

GEAR:
  • EarthQuaker Devices Westwood
  • Fender '57 Custom Champ
  • Fender American Original '50s Telecaster

Another one:

They are more known by their artist name, but artist name contains the "Mu" character (μ-Ziq) that equipboard does not seem to support so well, so you can't search for artist by their artist name on the site. I'm not sure what the best solution is.

GEAR:
  • Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer
  • Roland SH-101
  • Roland TR-909 Rhythm Composer
