Dweezil Zappa

"I used those with a variety of rack effects like the Yamaha SPX 90, and TC Electronic 2290, and Eventide H3000 in a stereo set up. A little later I also used a Roland GP-8. Slightly off topic, my Dad liked the sound of many of my presets on the GP-8 so I went to Guitar Center and bought him one. I copied all of my presets into it and he used it extensively on his 1988 tour. The clean sound that you hear him soloing with is him playing his blonde Performance Guitar through the GP-8."

"There was a system by Lexicon called MPXG2 which had a 6 watt rack mounted amp along with a multi effects processor. I used this for a lot of sessions including the Britney Spears cover song "Hit Me Baby One More Time." I liked the idea of such a compact guitar rig option. At the time it was not a complete solution for every kind of tone though."

"This way I would be able to create blended fuzz sounds with attack differentials and also utilize the envelope in the dynaflanger at the very begininng of the signal. I have access to 6 pedals per input of each Fractal. They are remotely switchable via the RJM effects gizmo."

"It has 11 pedals that live on the top shelf which features a piano hinge to allow it to open up for easy access to the power supplies below. There is a Wampler buffer pedal living down there as well. (Pedals from left to right: Lone Wolf Outsider, TC Electronic Vortex Flanger, Strymon Mobius, Chandler limited Little Devil Boost, Chandler Limited Germanium Boost, Solidgoldfx Electroman Delay, Jam Retro Vibe, Soundblox2 Orbital, Soundblox2 Stingray, Gooch Effects "Too Much Fuzz" custom DZ pedal)"

Mentioned as a user on the official product page.

The Triskelion circuit is based on the uber-rare Systech Harmonic Energizer – this pedal was prized by several well-known artists, including Joe Walsh and Greg Lake. It’s most notable advocate was guitar legend Frank Zappa, who used the Systech for many of his throaty, mid-boosted Guitar tones.

It’s no surprise that Zappa’s son Dweezil relies on the Triskelion to replicate his father’s guitar sounds for the ongoing Zappa Plays Zappa project. In fact, Dweezil has been known to use three – yes, THREE – Triskelion’s in his live touring rig!

Zappa added "a new Telefunken | USA U47" to Utility Muffin Research Kitchen, as mentioned in this July 2007 Telefunken article.

Dweezil also took possession of a new Telefunken | USA U47. He added, “It’s amazing how same-model microphones have very distinct characteristics, because of the subtleties of the capsules and the choice and condition of the tubes. The new U47 is a very finely crafted mic which fits beautifully into the collection that Frank put together.”

The Tone X is one of the coolest things you can use as a guitar player these days. The technology is getting better and better.
