In this transcription of a 1998 interview with Guitar magazine, Draper discussed the recording of Mansun's Six album. " I used a Roland TR-707 [sic], one of the early guitar synths, too,' continues Draper. 'It's been mostly old gear. But new sounds." (While the article used the TR designation, it was likely an error as that prefix refers to a drum machine while the G model would be ascribed to guitar synths.)
In this transcription of a 1998 interview with Guitar magazine, Draper discussed the recording of Mansun's Six album. "[His] more occasional fretboard forays largely come via a Gibson Melody Maker: 'On Grey Lantern I used a Les Paul through a JCM45 [sic], but I wanted a smaller, more punky set-up for this one, so I've switched over to a Melody Maker going through a Mesa Boogie Mark III - sounds really good, too. But we'll both use whatever's to hand; we chop and Change gear all the time.'"
