“That’s another Rangemaster copy I got when my main one was broken. Luckily I found this one on tour somewhere in Belgium and I didn’t miss a show without that Rangemaster sound I use for a lot of my solos.

“I’ll use this for I Want You To Know to give my sound a bit of a treble boost and an extra kick. It’s probably the one I use most randomly, whenever I feel like it.”
