Adam 'Pitchy' Flanagan

The class guitar featuring modern touches such as locking tuners and jack and strap locks as standard. Mine has a 50s profile neck but you can also purchase them with a 60s one if prefered.

A guitar that has surprised me, this features a triplebucker pickup (three single coils rolled into one) and a p90 in the neck. I use this for gigs and teaching, great value for money!

I have owned my NCX2000 for 8 years, and is regularly used as part of my work. It’s a comfortable guitar to play, and suits performances such as wedding ceremonies (for more classical repertoire) and concerts/pit music (pop/contemporary). The guitar records well miked up/blended with DI. For live work, the preamp is superb for plugging straight into acoustic amps/PA and produces a tight, yet balanced tone. This is something I find very rewarding with the guitar, considering a lot of other electro classicals I tried, were too boomy to craft a suitable low end response. This may be partly thanks to the split pickup, that allows you to mix the dual pickups in a way that helps bring out melodies when playing finger style, or add more oomph when trying to fill a mix with more chord playing. The only things I have noticed that is the screws on the tuning peg heads occasionally comes loose (so I leave a mini Philips in the case). The other thing is the onboard tuner could do with showing better detail in the regards to how in tune strings are, alongside the fact it doesn’t mute the signal. Overall, a great for those after a strong nylon string for multiple tasks and applications.

I have owned this head for 5+years and have used it on most gigs where amplification (rather than DI only) is required. In combination with the Neo cab series (1x15 & 2x10 cabs), you get a superb range of tone for shaping a more than suitable tone for performing live. The in/out options are really good and the onboard is great for tidying up the overall sound.

Classic Fender amplifier. Great clean tone and useable drive for certain genres of music. As mentioned in other reviews, it’s loud and can be a nuisance on gigs where lower stage volumes are key. It is also heavy, so make sure you have a strong back/trolley to move around venues.

I bought this in hope to give my Fender 2x12 a chance to get cranked, but not at super loud, glass shattering volumes. Took it straight into a gig, patched it into the effects loop of the amp, and that was an amazing gig, at a suitable volume, dynamic range held in tact, and other effects pedals kept in check. It may only get used on occasions, but this literally saves a gig from a volume prospective. Does the job perfectly for the price it cost. Get one, keep in your gig bag, and use when necessary. You’ll be thankful!

Have had this for a couple of months and has been great to plug into any amplifier and can always dial in a great tone for blues, hard rock and everything else.

A great little bit of kit, which works like the EHX Freeze, but is expanded with additional in/outs and is much more controllable over the sound whether you're freezing chords or making crazy sounds. Great addition alongside POGs.

You know those scenarios when you hear people rave about pedals so much that you're not too certain whether to jump on the bandwagon? Glad I jumped on this one! Great for tidying up bass tone, sound engeineers love them and they're great to record with for demos, projects etc. and it can be used as an active DI when in bypass! This easily does more tricks than Tony Hawk! Looking to expand to rack versions at some point as well!

I've used POG2's for guitar and bass. On guitar, I tend to use them for volume swells and choruses in combination with additionals pedals (Phase 90s and various delays to create the Mike Einziger wall of effects). In recent times, I've been using them more on bass (in fact, two of them) to creat sub octaves, or fake guitar sounds. I have posted various youtube covers of songs by Royal Blood showing what fun you can have, search for me and you'll find them! Overall, great fun and a great pedal to expand any musician's sound.

Standard bass overdrive used in merge effect loops with clean sound. I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with this pedal, despite it remaining in my Bass setup. Works well with certain applications, but not in others (ie active bass)

Fine tuning the bass rig (when needed)

Bass funk in a box

This was my first pedal received as a Christmas present. Originally I didn't use this much until I started hearing it more as a subtle effect used by the Police, the Cure (all 80s sounding bands) but also more modern bands such as RHCP, Incubus etc I use this mainly to wash up the sound although it's cool when combined with an extreme amount of feedback.

Used for my guitar setup, it's used for crazy delay settings, standard guitar solo depths and looping where needed.

The standard, need I say more? :p In recent times, I have found the routing on the pedal very useful for creating effects loops. Search for me 'Adam Flanagan' on youtube to see what fun you can emulating bands such as Royal Blood with a TU2, LS2, Pogs and a whole lot of overdrives!

For subtle clean tones and abrupt cutting sounds!

For guitar it is used for switching instruments and for bass it is used to mix in different effect loops with the clean signal.

The amount of fuzz/texture sounds make this a superb tool for studio use & live riffage.

Great bass for all sorts of gigs and sessions. Features an active/passive switch which is great for getting the classic jazz bass sounds or adding a modern touch to the sound! I use this for literally everything these days
