The GOASTT

"Then, finally, a Holy Grail [by Electro-Harmonix] at the end, which is still my favorite reverb. I haven’t done a mix without using a Holy Grail in like 10 years, since the first one came out."

"What wah do you tend to favor? The [Dunlop] Zakk Wylde."

"I sometimes throw other things on the board too, like the [EarthQuaker Devices] Arpanoid pedal, although that fucked everything up because I’d always switch it on by accident [laughs]."

"Having said that, if I’m going to be in the studio and I have the energy to really focus on guitar, I have an old, crusty Fender Deluxe from the ’50s that still has the original speaker cone. It only has volume and tone controls. If I put it up at 12 o’clock, it’s the most distorted thing that you’ve ever heard. That’s my favorite distortion, if I’m not going to rely on pedals."

"It’s interesting: The only amp I have from the old days was my dad’s Bassman. Those weren’t used so much on bass, but I actually do use it on bass. Sometimes you don’t want such a big bass sound. It has those 10-inch speakers, which are really good for a punchy bass sound. It was made for bass, right?"

"I was always using the [Ampeg] B-15, which is great, but it’s soft and doesn’t punch like that. It doesn’t get edgy."

"...’59 Reissue Gibson ES-335."

"Fender recently gave me an Olympic White 60th Anniversary American Standard Strat."
