'My Gibson SG Silverburst. Technically a 'Robot' SG but I've stripped all of that stuff off it so it's essentially an SG Standard (but the main difference now is that this has an ebony fretboard as opposed to rosewood). Fitted with an EMG 85 in the bridge.'

In an Instagram that has since been deleted (https://www.instagram.com/p/BK8FQZxghy6/), he said:

Ok so I still want to try and sell my Les Paul Axcess Custom. I never play it and there's no point in hanging onto material possessions for the sake of it. This is an extremely rare guitar. Only a limited run of Axcess Custom models were made in each finish. Ideally cash upon collection from here in Reading! Sensible offers only please.

'My Gibson Firebird Studio. These have been discontinued now. Custom pick guard and fitted with EMG 57/66 pickups.'

Around the time of Sylosis' debut album, Josh Middleton used an ESP Alexi Laiho signature guitar, as seen in the music video for Teras.

Josh Middleton is the acclaimed and highly influential guitarist of UK-based progressive metal/metalcore bands Sylosis and Architects, and his first ESP Signature Series guitar is one that lives up to this musician’s extraordinary talent. The LTD Josh Middleton Signature Series JM-II offers a bolt-on construction alder body with quilted maple top, a three-piece roasted maple neck in an extra-thin u-shaped profile, and a Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets. Components on the JM-II include a set of Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker pickups (alnico in the neck and ceramic in the bridge), with push-pull control to select voicings. It also offers LTD locking tuners and a recessed Gotoh TOM bridge with string-thru-body design. Available in Black Shadow Burst finish.
