Identifying the gear

So, you prefer other music? I don't know, I'm just pointing out the gear I found and that I need the name/just a confirmation if that is the correct gear.

I'm happy to help, I am bumming around today, but yeah, I don't know who most of these guys are, and while I remember when 'Buddy Holly' came out I was not a big fan of weezer or greenday being a little too old to catch that post-grunge train

Those look like 2 different guitars in fact...

yeah they do, one looks spruce topped and one looks like cedar maybe

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

I really don't know. Brian Bell plays this Stratocaster in "Beverly Hills", however, I've found one photo of him, which isn't really a strong evidence, but, it will do. It is somewhere live, could be Weezer show.

He played "Pork And Beans" on some kind of 3/4 classical guitar. I don't know, it is almost impossible to find the model, I might try with this.

This looks like Epiphone Frontier, however, it doesn't have this decorated pickguard, so I'm unsure.

In this video, Patrick Wilson plays somehting that looks like Martin D35, pretty unsure about it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfQDF9PLBbU

I have no idea if you are fluent in this or not, but he is using some software, and I don't know the name of it.

In the same video, at 1.19 minute mark, there is something he is working on, and the plate is on top, right next to "Recording the Beatles" book.

Wilson is playing here something that looks like orange Charvel, I need the model name. He also uses something that looks like Shubb capo on it.

what a great book... although I enjoyed Beatles Gear even more by the same cat, Babiuk I think, oh man what a guitar fest!

that's a charvel san dimas pro, but who knows from what era... looks like a shubb, is the capo that important?

Is that a sitar Noel Gallagher is playing? I don't know really, even if we verify it as sitar, it would be nearly unpossible to see who made it. This was taken at 2007. recordings.

But what is that microphone that is visible? http://www.bbc.co.uk/radioassets/photos/2007/6/15/22173_2.jpg

it a sitar, but quality sitars are handmade by India's version of luthiers like a good classical guitar so god knows what it is

But what is that microphone that is visible?

Its a U67. You may be thinking that a 1st gen U87 looks identical, but you can tell by the mount with integral tube cable. I happen to love the U67 and it would definitely be my first choice as a close mic to give a weird instrument like the sitar midrange presence while taming any harshness in that buzzy sound sitars produce. I do not think a U87 would flatter a sitar, though I would also try a U47 if the studio had one. A U67 is a rare enough commodity to begin with though. I digress.

I still try to look for more of Millard's gear. In the music video for "Beginning of the twist", it was noted that he played some candy red ES-335 style guitar.

Now, this looks a lot like Taylor's headstock, but Taylor didn't produce ES-335 styled guitars...did he? Anyway, here is the video.

I may have stumbled on a clue! I saw this Epi Elitist today on reverb:

https://reverb.com/item/1202516-epiphone-elite-dot-es335

check that headstock, not the old Epi Elitist 'Gibson mustache' copy I am used to seeing, its shaped a lot like the headstock in your video, though the color and appointments are a bit off, still its the closest match so far... maybe if you check out the epi catalogs for the years epi elitists had this cool headstock shape you will find the guitar

1962T maybe?

This could be Fender Telecaster Deluxe, right?

FENDER CLASSIC SERIES '72 TELECASTER® CUSTOM

It's got the custom ashtray thing, and I'm sure that's a single-hum configuration.

Too old for Classic Series though...

1962T maybe?

it appears to have 2 channels with volume and tone followed by maybe a reverb knob and then footswitch jack and then bias-vary trem circuity with controls for rate and depth..... that can be a lot of supros....

looks like an early 60s royal reverb based on that control layout, but impossible to tell from that angle because I can't see if its got the notorious split chassis and umbilical.... it could also be a dual 6L6 or 6V6 reverb model, I am not sure of all of their iterations as I favor supros with 6973 tubes just like I seek out ampegs with 7591s just because those less common power tubes are a unique voice to those brands. I am a fender Princeton guy for fixed bias 6v6es, prefer Gibson's late 50s and early 60s cathode biased 6V6 type of amps and really am not much of a fan of lower wattage 6L6 amps at all... the supro I owned was an Airline branded 1624T and it indeed sounded glorious turned way up with a tonebender and telecaster. Really a unique sound, though it really wasn't me. But the amp in this picture looks like a 2x10 size cabinet, not 1x12, I just can't figure out which supro 2x10 with that number of controls it could be....

its a Radial engineering JDX amp DI. I've been thinking of getting one, look it up and you'll see why. It does some speaker sim stuff like an H&K redbox too, really neat idea

Those amps? Names of them?

I see from right to left a silvertone 1483 in the early combo format that sounds a little different than the twin twelve version popularized by Jack White, then I see a late 60s or 70s ac30, probably a 70s one, maybe a Arbiter built one? wish the pic included more faceplate detail! Then there's a Dano DM-25, early 60s.... I am not sure about that airline amp. Airline amps were generally made by Valco or Dano for Montgomery Wards catalogs and the models directly correlated to Supro and SIlvertone models only with the front control panels and 2 tone Airline cosmetics.... this does not look right. Maybe its late 60s....

Massive gear identification needed!

So, AJ Dunning posted this on his Facebook page, and this is massive. I tried, however, a lot of gear is still missing. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10204139141936738&set=pb.1171508391.-2207520000.1446390031.&type=3&theater

(from left to right) 1. unknown footswitch 2. Vox AC15 (?) 3. unknown 4. unknown amp head 5. unknown cab 6. EHX Memory Man 7. Line 6 MM4 8 - 12. Unknown pedals 13. something 14. Boss GE-7 15. TC Electronic PolyTune 16. Voodoo Lab Micro Vibe 17. could be TC Electronic Vortex 18. Foxx Tone Machine 19. EHX Ring Thing and everything else is unknown. As I said, there is a lot to research so, I will update if I found something.

Massive gear identification needed!

(from left to right) 1. unknown footswitch 2. Vox AC15 (?)

yeah, that's a dead ringer for a 90s marshall manufactured ac15, a pretty decent sounding amp in my opinion, but not much of a reissue as its less like a real ac15 than even the current handwired and custom classic, but I am pretty sure its not vintage or a CC, there are some telltale cab features, y'know?

  1. unknown

its rack with a power conditioner, some kinda preamp that looks kinda dyube works and then an effects processor? photo is hella grainy, man

  1. unknown amp head

Zinky Mofo

  1. unknown cab

looks like a stagecraft 1x12 cab, not the heirloom series cabs or maybe an avatar 2x12 w/o the logo

for the pedals, I will look at them when I am in the mood to sort out your numbering, I am pretty sure I recognize more than you identified

Hold on, there are few more I identified when looking at the photo again.

There is also TC Electronic Ditto Looper, there is also Boss FV-50, and there is also FW-3 in the left corner. That green pedal is some sort of Suhr pedal, I sure that this is one. Ernie Ball Expression Pedal is there,

The blue pedal is definitely some kind of DOD pedal.
