Take your Pick

I've used countless different picks over the years, but have always gone back to these. I use the .73, .88 and 1mm ones (Dependent on how I'm feeling on any given day) and they're fantastic. And they're available pretty much everywhere which is a bonus

Hard wearing strings

These are my go-to strings, I can't quite describe why but they're perfect for me

Quintessential Wah Tones

With two different wah modes, in-depth control and switchless operation, it's hard to find a better wah

My Favourite Flanger

This thing does basically every flanger sound you could ever want from mild watery sounds to the downright insane

Great booster

I use the spark first in the chain in case a guitar needs a bit of a push going into the rest of my board. It helps me keep the volumes between my guitars fairly consistent.

No Introduction needed

There's certainly a reason this is one of the most popular Phasers out there! I've modded mine to sound almost like a smoother vibe.

Amazing alternative to TS style pedals

This is by far the best TS type pedal I've played. I use the blue side as a pre boost for the main gain of the 909 Red side, this comes last in my chain of gain pedals.

Tone Machine

I've had this amp a few years and it does everything from Blues and Country up to Hard Rock and Metal. It pairs really well with a Les Paul (Obviously)

Sultan

I've always been inspired by Mark Knopfler so I've wanted a Resonator Acoustic for many years. When I tried this one I instantly fell in love despite the fact that it's an unknown brand and not exactly high end. It does exactly what I need it to.

Omerta

This guitar has been heavily modified by me with a custom pickguard to cover the neck pickup rout, a single volume control and a DiMarzio Super Distortion in the bridge position.

Bonnie (My main guitar)

This is my main guitar, Bonnie. I got it second hand in 2020 as it's a 2003 model. I knew I loved it from the minute I picked it up, It's everything I want in a Les Paul, great neck, not too heavy and it has DiMarzio Soapbar P90's! It is also fitted with a Duesenberg Les Trem II Tailpiece
