Mentioned in this June 25, 2012 Fender interview.

Well, I use anything and everything. On records, there’s nothing sacred. We’ll take a speaker and then break it specifically, and mic it with the mic against the floor instead of on the speaker. There are really no rules. It’s funny because I just discovered this Fender Excelsior amp. It’s a typical amp that you would find in the Queens recording session – something that has got low watts and is kind of funky. Like an old Teisco amp or something that is made in Japan, and that nobody wants anymore. So that’s why I liked playing through the Excelsior. It kind of reminds me of how we do things. Plus, it looks vintage, almost like a suitcase.

There's a Morley Wah too, yeah, it's just a straight up wah. Yeah, I don't think there's a fuzz in there.

“I have the Echopark to boost all my Jazzmasters, he continues. “With all the cable I’m going through, I still need a boost, and the Echopark can add a clean 20 extra dbs to the signal. On the last tour, I literally just taped the setting down.”

Also on hand is a bevy of modulation options. “I used chorus all over the place with Failure and A Perfect Circle,” Van Leeuwen admits. “I went away from it in Queens, but it’s come back there, and on some Sweethead stuff." (...) “This is the classic Boss Chorus Ensemble – yes, I’ve been told it’s one that has the ‘good chip,’” Van Leeuwen says. “It’s basically the ‘80s in a box. It’s really lush, what it does – especially running it in stereo.”

"Lexicon Vortex, which is the easiest tap delay to use. Analog delay sounds better, but I think that it’s better for me to tap out a tempo on that thing live. Onstage, I’m playing lapsteel guitar and keyboards, so I’ve got enough to do. I can’t lean down and change my echo setting."
