“In the world of custom drums where obnoxious finishes and odd drum construction come first, Q Drum Co. focuses on tonal quality. While pushing construction techniques and respecting what was done right in the past, all my needs and then some are met by Q Drum Co," says Rubin. According to his artist page on the official Q Drum Co website, Ilan Rubin uses a custom Patina Cold Rolled Steel Kit with the following shell sizes:

Found this "Rare" model in Guitar Center LA while on a break touring with NIN, since Trent Reznor caught a cold and had to cancel few shows.

The Fender Special Edition Jaguar Thinline semi-hollow electric guitar may be the most unique Jaguar ever. Celebrating 50 years of the iconic Jaguar, this special edition takes the classic body shape and extensive tone-shaping prowess the Jaguar's known for, with a semi-hollow alder body with ash top and back. The maple neck sports the comfortable modern "C" profile, with a rosewood fretboard to finish the classic look. And vintage surf tones are at the ready, thanks to two vintage-style Jaguar single-coil pickups. The look is distinctive, the tone is alluring, and only 250 of these special Jaguars were made.

The traditional D-16GT acoustic guitar features a 14-fret platform and a Dreadnought body design which incorporates modern guitar specifications with the famous Martin quality and sound. The solid mahogany back and sides complement the Sitka spruce top finished in a polished gloss. The D-16GT delivers true Martin sound and feel. This model includes SUSTAINABLE WOOD CERTIFIED parts.

The Les Paul special was used on the Grammys performance with NIN, QOTSA, Dave Grohl and Lindsay Buckingham performance. As well as on all the 2013-2014 touring. I also used it on tour with The New Regime.

In appearance, the Jaguar Bass is largely faithful to the original Fender Jaguar, with exception of the neck, bridge, and pickups taken from both the Fender Jazz Bass and Fender Precision Bass, though the Jaguar Deluxe Bass has only Jazz bass components. Rather than the standard dot position markers, however, the Jaguar bass has aged pearloid block inlays, a feature generally reserved for premium instruments. The bass also has a standard vintage-style top-loading bridge and tuners. An onboard preamp is controlled by bass/treble boost rollers and an on/off switch located on the top control panel. The lower control panel holds on/off switches for each of the pickups, and a switch to toggle between parallel and series wiring of the pickups. Finally, the master control panel holds the master volume, master tone, and jack. Other features include an alder body, C-shaped maple neck, 7.25"-radius rosewood fretboard with 20 medium jumbo frets. Serial: T038892. Made in Japan. Rosewood neck. Shortscale. Marks on top bought from what looks like a bracelet. Three tone sunburst finish. Strings are old but bass plays well. Scratchy volume and tone pots which got better with turning. Top circuit is disengaged and acts as a kill switch. Play wear on the neck and marker on the neck. SKB hardshell case.

This is a vintage 1966 Gibson GA-15RVT all tube combo amp. Nicknamed "Explorer", this amp is in amazing cosmetic and functional condition. The phase-inverting transformer has been replaced with a new Toneclone. It has some stellar sounding spring reverb and tremolo that cuts as deep and fast as you'd like - both switchable with the included original footswitch (the back of which is missing its cover - does not affect function). Serial: A020653. Clean little Explorer. Black tolex. Vintage Jensen 12". With footswitch. Used on The New Regime recordings.

This rivalry between Vox and Marshall continued throughout the years, with Vox emulating the signature Marshall stack several different times. The Vox V125 Guitar and V125 Bass stack, both introduced in a 1981 Vox catalog during the Rose Morris ownership period of Vox, were two such examples. The electronics for the V125 were an adaptation of the circuits used in the AC-120 that Vox had introduced in 1973.
