Seen in his instructional video.
2:05s, the Kasha Rockmod I was used heavily on the first two Giant albums and live as well.
In a 1988 photograph from Photobucket, Dann Huff is shown using a Mesa/Boogie Mark II guitar amplifier.
Huff has been known to use a wide variety of equipment. Within the Tyler brand he has been known to use the Tyler Classic Signature Model and the Tyler Ultimate Weapon with active mid-boost circuitry, a recessed Floyd Rose Locking Tremolo and dual humbuckers that give off a “warm fat sound.” (James Tyler himself has described it as “a sort of Les Paul-meets-Telecaster.”)
For his other acoustic/electric guitars, Huff uses a range of Stratocasters and Telecasters, a Tom Anderson Classic T, and Gibson Les Pauls. When it comes to amps and effects, Huff has more gear than most mortals. Some of the featured gear from the Giant days includes:
Peavey 5150 Mesa/Boogie Quad preamp with VHT stereo tube power amp Mesa/Boogie Mark II TC Electronic 2290 Yamaha SPX90 Roland SDE3000
3:15s, Dann used the Peavey Classic 50 in the 90s and used it on a few DC Talk songs ("So Help Me God" and "Colored People").
His Peavey 5150 heads are behind him in his instructional video.
2:30s in, you can see the Fender Bassman 50 Blackface head directly behind Dann in his studio.
2:15s in, you can see Dann's custom white tolexed, block letter Peavey 5150 EVH heads in his studio.
2:30s in, you can see the Fender Super Reverb Blackface head directly behind Dann and underneath the Fender Bassman 50 Blackface head in Dann's studio.
In the instructional video titled "Dann Huff - Full Instructional Video for Guitar Solo and Recording Studio Experience," uploaded by Zoar Cast on YouTube, the Marshall Plexi 1959SLP amplifier is visibly present behind Dann Huff at the timestamp 10:49, thereby confirming its usage by the guitarist and music producer. This evidence substantiates the claim that Dann Huff utilizes the Marshall Plexi 1959SLP in his musical endeavors.
"Derek Eastveld, owner of Winnipeg, Manitoba-based amp company Revv, brought this Dynamis D40 head for Huff to try out, and it clicked instantly; Huff wrote a song on it for his solo record. It runs through a Little Walter 2x12 open-back cabinet."
At 1:07:50 in the YouTube video titled "Dann Huff Rig Rundown - Guitar Gear Behind New Album When Words Aren’t Enough" by Premier Guitar, Dann Huff is shown demonstrating the Bogner XTC Ecstasy 20th Anniversary Guitar Amplifier Head.
