"Gaz Coombes has used a wide variety of guitars during his career, including a Burns Custom Legend, Fender Telecaster Deluxe and Telecaster Plus, and Gibson ES-335s, Les Pauls and SGs."
"Gaz Coombes uses the Farida J-10CE in a natural ‘open pore’ finish which allows the jumbo sized J-10CE to ‘breathe’ without using a thick layer of gloss which in some cases can dampen the instrument’s natural sound. The J-10CE features a solid sitka spruce top with mahogany back/sides and is home to a Fishman Sonitone pre-amp."
