"For amplification, I used my signature-model Cornford RK100 with a Cornford 4x12 cab loaded with Celestion 30s. It’s a pretty simple 100-watt, hand-wired amp that kind of sounds like an old Marshall. But, out of all of the amps I’ve ever used, I can get a tone instantly with that rig. I plug in, turn up, tweak a few knobs, and I’m there. I also used a Cornford Hurricane 1x12 combo for a lot of the solos and rhythms. It was already miked up during the sessions, so I just tried it, and it sounded really cool—the midrange was very clear and focused."
