Tatsuro Yamashita

"Under Yamashita's feet is a line selector (1) that switches between line and amp, a distortion pedal (2) that he steps on when playing solos and the like, and a chorus (3) and (4) for each acoustic and electric guitar. The chorus is left on both guitars except when playing "SPARKLE". The electric guitar is first connected from (3) to (1), then from (1) A to the line, from B to (2) and then to the amp. The acoustic guitar is output in line via (4).

Both chorus CE-3s are set to STEREO MODE 1, which is the standard setting for mono output of dry and effect sounds. The knob values are the same on both units, with RATE at 10 and DEPTH at 11."

In this article, the TECH 21 / SansAmp GT2 is mentioned as one of the effects pedals on his pedalboard. Here is an English translation of the article. "The distortion pedal is a SansAmp GT-2. This pedal can produce a hard rock sound, but the DRIVE is set very low. The "MIC" setting, which allows you to select the mic level, is set to CLASSIC, while the "AMP" setting, which simulates three different types of amps, is fixed to CALIFORNIA (mesa boogie type), allowing you to adjust the intensity of the distortion. "MOD" is switched depending on the song."
