In this video, Rebea plays his Roland td50 kit. He uses samples from the GGD P4 pack for the sounds on his kit.

The Silo Pickup set is the signature set Bea designed with BareKnuckle. Bea spent time with both Tim , and Nolly Getgood shooting out prototypes of the pickup. They tried out 6 bridge, and 4 Neck prototypes that where slightly different than the other in order to accurately get the sound Bea wanted. Bea used the warpig model for years but wanted something a bit more versitile. "I need a pickup with the ability to create glassy, ambient leads and warm, clear chord tones. Equally I need it to sound crushingly heavy and aggressive."

In this video Bea demos the tone city wild fro. This is a pedal bea designed in collab with tone city. This is based off their wild fire pedal. This pedal spawned from a conversation between lee anderton, and bea about tone city pedals. Bea stated that he loved the wild fire but wished it had the option to have less gain for more strat style or lower gain playing. Andertons is an exclusive dealer of tone city, and thus, lee was able to get bea in touch with the guys at tone city to collab on this pedal

At 2:35 in this video interview with Sweetwater, Rabea says:

Out of that [Boss OC-5] we go in to the 1973 Bender Fuzz by JHS. They released a series of fuzz, I believe they were called the Legendary Fuzz Series I think a little while back. They did four, and the Bender was the one I enjoyed the most.

He goes on to explain that he likes fuzz pedals inspired by vintage units but updated to include modern features and specifications.

At 3:54 in this video, Rabea discusses the Maxon OD808 on this pedalboard build.

The reason that's there is that most modern guitar players that play high-gain amps tend to use a tube screamer in front of them. And more often than not, you find it's usually the Maxon. It's just a great solid overdrive that you never put the drive up past zero but you boost the balance or volume and you just get it to tighten up the high gain tone.
