"His rack consisted of two Furman PQ-3 preamp parametric equalizers and a Lexicon PCM-41 delay unit that adds a lot of sustain and can also be used for a chorus effect."

What was your main guitar and amp setup in the W.A.S.P. days, and what are you using now? —Jonathan Green

My main guitar back in the day was a Charvel Jackson. A yellow bolt-on Star. It’s the same one I use now. I’ve broken it about five times—I just glue it back together and put a new neck on it. The amps were Marshall Super Leads, 1971 or ’72, 100-watt tops. I used a Nady [Wireless], and I went into a parametric equalizer, then a Lexicon [effects] processor and then into the Marshalls.
