"The Dunlop guys have been re- ally cool with us. They supplied me with a Smart Gate... and that’s used pretty much any time the EQ with the boost is on. Otherwise it would just be feedback all over the place."

"It's very important to have a gate when you use high-gain amps. Unwanted feedback is not nice for people to listen to so it keeps it tight and clean. The MXR is quite harsh so I only really use it for stoppy-starty riffs."

“A must. When I first joined the band I didn’t have one, but when you’re playing a different venue every night, sometimes you’re getting feedback – especially with how much gain we use. So we just turn up the noise suppressor and it cuts all the extra noise out.”
