Michael's Gear

*Michael endorses Tremol-no the non-invasive way to lock down your floating trem.* 

Amplification: Live Rig consists of the Mesa Boogie Mark V head into a Mesa 4x12 cab with Celestion vintage 30s. Channel switching via MIDI from the Rocktron MIDI Patchmate (which is phanton powered and reduces cabling) into the RJM MIDI Mini Amp Gizmo which handles all amplifier functions such as channel switching, reveb switching, effects loop, EQ, and SOLO Boost modes. A single expression pedal is attached to the patchmate for continuous control of parameters such as Pitch/ Whammy, Leslie speed and depth, delay ducking, reverb depth, etc.

Signal Path: The Mark V is fed by a Dunlop DCR ISR Rack mount Crybaby which is plugged to the front end of the amp. The Effects Loop contains the following: TC Electronic 1st generation G Major effects processor V1.27 into an MXR Digital Time Delay. The TC handles gating as well as the usual time pitch and modulation effects. 

A Korg DTR-1000 digital tuner handles the obvious and power is delivered by a Furman power conditioner/ light module.  

Guitars: As of late Michael has been favoring his newest acquisition from Edwards (a division of ESP) the ECY-165-CTM. The 6 string 27 fret beauty boasts 6100 frets on an ebony board which is ornately inlayed with real Mother of Pearl and pearloid vinework. The body is bound in Abalone with a quilted maple top in a cherry cola red transparent finish. The Stock Duncan SHJB-4 was replaced witha Zebra Dimarzio Tone Zone. The OEM Equipped Fast Track takes care of the neck position.

The rest of the guitars are pretty self explanatory, Ibanez RG-550 in black and clear-coated with opulescent ghost skulls that appear only in certain lighting and angles, otherwise it just looks like a black guitar.(Painted by Hell Rod Customs) Ibanez Jem with custom inlay at the 24th fret with 'OLYMPIA' in a tung oil finish. Ibanez RG7620 in Vampire kiss, 7 string, Ibanez RG-2027 in Vintage Violin also 7 strings and a Piezo bridge. Fender 1989 Stratocaster Plus in CA Red with Fender Gold Lace sensors and an L.R. Baggs X bridge Piezo system. These make up the bulk of Michael's live guitars, the rest of the collection is too numerous to go into much detail and would take up an entire page alone. Ask him, He'll talk your ear off about gear. 

Sally's Rig

At the heart of her rig, a Roland JV-2080 multitimbral sound module and driven with the Roland JV-90 and a weighted 88 key controller. For switching, customized MIDI modules help sally increment and decremnet patch changes via a simple up or down pedal press.
