Wiley Arnett's Gear
On his own website, Wiley Arnett says
For power I use the Marshall 9000 power-amp. It's a stereo power-amp with 50wts a side (yes that's enough).
On his own website, Wiley Arnett says
A Rocktron Pro-gap Ultra is my pre-amp. It is midi making for easy access to clean, distorted and effected channels during live performances. And it sounds great in the studio.
This strings set is the original setup as used by Wiley Arnett live on stage and in studio with Sacred Reich.
In this interview with ESP, Wiley Arnett, one of the earliest endorsees on the ESP artist roster, says :
I had a great talk with Matt about who I was, what I was all about as a musician, and how much I love the quality of ESP guitars. Matt gave me a cost deal on an ESP Mirage Custom. It was a white neck-thru-body design, and had EMGs. It was the coolest guitar I’d ever played, let alone owned. I got that guitar in time to use it to record our Surf Nicaragua record and the supporting tour. I’ve been a loyal ESP player ever since.

Sacred Reich "Killing Machine" Guitar Playthrough. Perfect track to debut my new @ESPGuitars Custom Shop "Holo-Caster" ☢ Playing through a Fractal Axe FX III, ISP Stealth Power Amp and ENGL 4x12 cabinets. This setup really needs to get on tour

On his EMG Artist page, Wiley Arnett says he uses EMG 81 and 85
Proud member of the EMG family. Lead guitarist for Sacred Reich 1986 to current. EMG Pickups have been a key component to my tone and an inspiration to my playing for over 30 years. I have played EMG pickups on every record and every tour I've done including our most recent "Awakening LP" released in Aug 2019. I can tell you from experience that there is not a more consistant pickup on the market. Do yourself a favor and get some!

The effects processor I use is a Rocktron Replifex. Again a consistent great sounding easy to work with unit
