"The only thing he’s done to the guitar was swap in Tom Anderson H3 (bridge) and H1 (neck) humbuckers to match the sound Billy achieved on APC’s recordings."

"I’ve always sort of used the same basic set up. I have a Gibson Les Paul classic 1960 reissue, and I use Tom Anderson pickups in that, and I’ve got a Marshall Super Lead 100 watt head that’s modified pre-amp—that and a Marshall 4 x 12 that’s my basic sound."
