"I bought a 70’s Little Big Muff Pi [op-amp version] in a second hand guitar store; it just has a volume knob on it, which I set all the way up. There’s this little switch that toggles between bass and treble on the side too, I just set it to the bass side. So it’s like a Big Muff with the tone rolled all the way back. I used that up until just recently."

"I haven’t used a Rat in about 5 years or so, but the settings I used back then were distortion around 1 or 2 o’clock, with filter and volume all the way to the right (5 o’clock)."

"My white Gibson SG is a 2007; it’s kind of an odd one. I used to play a red ‘61 Reissue from 1995, but the headstock broke on tour in 2012. When that happened, I bought the white one on eBay. It’s basically an SG Standard with a larger headstock. It was apparently a limited edition run of 400 as a Gibson Guitar of the Week or something. At the time they weren’t making SG Standards in white with the smaller pick guard, so I think it was a bit rare even then."

"...now that we’re a one guitar band, I run a second stack as well. That set up is an 80’s Laney AOR Pro-Tube Lead 100."

"Right after we recorded the most recent LP, Eternal Return, I switched to one of those Sovtek “Green Russian” Big Muffs from the 90’s."

"I’m also currently using a Dunlop Cry Baby Wah, a Boss DD-3 Digital Delay, and an Electro Harmonix Small Stone Phaser. I have a Dunlop Q Zone that I use for a treble boost on a few things and an MXR Dyna Comp that I use on one song as a volume reduction so I can get a bit of a clean sound out of my bridge pickup."

In Windhand we tune to C-Standard and I use Ernie Ball Beefy Slinky strings, the ones in the yellow pack, which run 11-54 (11, 15, 22p, 30, 42, 54).

"My Matamp is an original one; I believe it’s from 1978, but definitely late 70’s. My friend Nathan Hilbish, who played bass on our 1st record, made me a clone of it that I use as a backup. He has an amp company now called Hilbish Design."

"After mine broke, I bought a 70’s Little Big Muff Pi [op-amp version] in a second hand guitar store; it just has a volume knob on it, which I set all the way up. There’s this little switch that toggles between bass and treble on the side too, I just set it to the bass side."

"The white SG as well as my red 1995 SG both came with Gibson ’57 Classic pickups, but I swapped out the bridge pickup in both of those guitars for a DiMarzio Super Distortion."

What are you currently using for strings and picks?

*I use Dunlop Tortex .73 picks, the yellow ones. *
