At 1:02 Deaners seen playing this fender music master a lot of Pure Guava I believe was written on this as well

at 17 seconds he says he plays a 1962 dakota red Fender Stratocaster

Dean’s 2000 Gibson Les Paul Standard sports Lindy Fralin pickups. Fralin also modded the electronics so that both pickups are controlled by just one volume knob. Photo by Jenny Baniszewski

"Then my dad bought me my first real guitar, which was a Squier Strat—one of the early ones. It’s a great guitar, made in Japan. He hid it, but I knew the day it entered the house."

"If I want a Tele sound, I have an old ’65 Twin and a bunch of Teles"

"I use either one or two mesa boogie dual rectifier tremor-verb heads into two 4×12 cabinets"

"In the studio though I use my old mesa mark IV head with a 2×10 cabinet."

I use a Fender Super-Sonic 100, and I use a 4x12 Fender cab.

And for bar gigs I use my Fender DeVille combo. I have two or three of them.

"My pedal board has a crybaby wah, Electro-Harmonix micro synthesizer, mu-tron III envelope filter, mxr phase 90 pedal, digitech whammy pedal, mxr blue box, and a boss digital delay stomp box."

"That Carbon Copy is the best delay I've ever used, hands down, no contest... The Cry Baby wah-wah pedal is more than just another piece of gear on my pedalboard. I purchased one the day I bought my first guitar and have never played a show without in the last 25 years. The same goes for the MXR Phase 90, and the mustard yellow Distortion+. It's at core of my personal sound, I use it as lead channel, I use it in a set position as much as I use it in an up and down motion. I couldn't live without it!"

"But onstage I use the Boss RE-20 Space Echo pedal, which has a tap function."

In his video he used both of the DD-3 pedals, the original one and the Keeley Modded one.

In this interview with Premier Guitar there's a list with the gear Mickey uses

You can see it here

In this video you can see him use a Cry baby mini wah.

In this video you can see the Boss TU-3 on his "pedalboard".

You can see the bass hanging up on the wall throughout the video which was filmed at Deans 'Shack'

Thoughout this video we can see Deaner playing this bass.

"Lindy Fralin pickups changed my life. As I cut my volume for rhythm guitar, like to 3, say, Lindy Fralin pickups help the high end stay there. You know what I mean? It adjusts naturally."
