In this photo Lenny Kravitz can be seen playing his signature Gibson Flying V. According to this article:

"Kravitz also plays a variety of Gibson ES-335s to 355s and ES-5s. But he is most closely associated with the Gibson Flying V, and got his own Gibson Flying V signature in 2002 (albeit a very limited edition of only 125). The Kravitz is essentially a 1967 historic reissue with a black and gold flake finish, and the pickguard and truss rod cover were gold mirror. Bling!

"He said of his ’67-styled signature, 'The neck size is the dimension that I like. The paint, the hardware, the finish, the sound, the pickup, the weight - that's basically it.'"

Lenny played this Gibson Les Paul Studio live at Rock in Rio, in Madrid, 2012, as seen in this source image.

Kravitz used a Skylark during the recording of "Are you gonna go my way", according to this Guitar World interview.

"...But on that song [“Are You Gonna Go My Way”] in particular I used a Gibson Skylark, a little tiny amp that has the most brilliant sound. And the guitar was a Les Paul—not the Flying V that’s in the video. Oddly enough, I’ve never used a V in the studio, even though I’m so associated with that guitar."

A Fender Jazzmaster was the first guitar Lenny Kravitz bought, according to this Guitar Center interview:

"GC: Have you shopped or do you shop at Guitar Center at all? What do you think about it?

Lenny: I bought my first guitar at Guitar Center! A Fender Jazz Master. Then I traded it in for a Les Paul Deluxe. I've been shopping at Guitar Center before it was even a big chain. It was the one place."

Gibson writes in this article "Ah, you’ve gotta love a killer guitar dropped into the middle of a massive sporting event. Prior to taking the stage at the Superbowl half-time performance with Katy Perry, Lenny Kravitz posted a picture to his social media accounts of himself holding a black Gibson Les Paul with the caption 'The guitar I'm playing tonight is the first of Gibson's 59 Black Over Flame Top series. Thank You @gibsonguitar. LK'"

Gibson writes about how this guitar came to be by writing "what is this guitar based on? Well, the story goes that once upon a time - a time called 1959 - a guitarist wanted a ‘Black Beauty’ Les Paul but he couldn’t stump up quite enough cash. So instead he had a 1959 Les Paul Standard painted black by Gibson. On close inspection the subtlest hints of the flamed maple underneath the black are visible. Mr. Joe Bonamassa has toured with this particular guitar. And now Lenny Kravitz has rocked the Superbowl with a replica of it."

Kravitz used Fender Tweed Deluxe amps for his dirty tones. These amps are not necessarily '57's.

"Apart from Kravitz's vocal effects, Natale's use of processing is relatively modest. A second FOH rack holds two Focusrite ISA 110s and a 2-channel Manley Electro-Optical Limiter for Kravitz's lead and spare vocal mics, both Audio-Technica 4054s." - from a Mix magazine interview with Dave Natale during the Lenny Live 2002 world tour.

He uses FRV-1 Reverb on stage.

Lenny Kravitz traded the first guitar he bought, a Fender Jazzmaster, for a Gibson Les Paul Deluxe, according to this Guitar Center interview:

"GC: Have you shopped or do you shop at Guitar Center at all? What do you think about it?

Lenny: I bought my first guitar at Guitar Center! A Fender Jazz Master. Then I traded it in for a Les Paul Deluxe. I've been shopping at Guitar Center before it was even a big chain. It was the one place."

In this interview from Vintage guitar, Lenny Kravitz says this about his usage of AC-30's:

"How did your studio gear differ from the gear you use onstage?

It was completely different. We just go for a more of a basic thing onstage. I’m using a stack of newer Vox AC30s right now and that’s really it."

In this interview for Guitar Center, Lenny Kravitz says, "I'm pretty much a Fender and Marshall guy. A lot Fender Deluxes, those are my favorites--the tweed models. I use Pro reverb and Twin reverb amps."

Used on "Let love rule", according to this interview for Guitar World:

"I love the guitar tone on your early albums, like Let Love Rule and Are You Gonna Go My Way. What was your setup in the studio on those records? — Grayson Malloy

On Let Love Rule, it was primarily a tweed Fender Deluxe cranked to 10. When you turn that amp all the way up, it compresses itself and makes this beautiful tone. That’s pretty much the dirty sound on the album. I think I also had a Fender Twin Reverb for the cleaner stuff.

The guitar, for the most part, was actually an Epiphone Sorrento."

Lenny Kravitz uses Dunlop Genuine Celluloid picks, according to Dunlop's website.
