I’ve been playing the same set up for a number of years now and I haven’t found anything I like more. It’s an early Laney AOR Pro-Tube 100-watt Lead amp, and I put it through whichever cabs are working! But that’s usually a Laney 4×12 and a Marshall 4×12. [The Laney is] the best amp I have ever owned: incredibly loud and very reliable on the road. Of course, I have managed to completely fry it a few times, because I play it at max volume all of the time!

It’s based on the Marshall JCM 800, which is what I usually play at fly out gigs.

I started using a Sunn Beta Bass amp, an old ’60s Ampeg 2×15 cab, and a Big Muff. I used this set up with Sourvein in the beginning, but again, still not loud enough!

My first amp was a really nice amp, actually: at the time, nobody really wanted ’70’s amps. It was a 1971 Marshall Super Bass: it had an amazing tone, but it was nowhere near loud enough for me and it was always breaking.
