Equipment List:
Scott's stage setup
consists of a '91 Gibson Les Paul Standard, '78 Les Paul 25/50 Anniversary
Custom and an '84 Fender Stratocaster
with a Dimarzio Super Distortion pick up. All are powered by a pair
of old Marshall JCM800 single channel halfstacks modified with EL34 power
tubes. The only effects Scott uses are a Morley Wah-Wah and Marshall
Overdrive pedals. That's
right! No long list of toys or cheesy digital crap. Only a true Marshall
tube overdrive sound, unmatched tone and unbelievable power!
Tim's stage setup
consists of a '76 Fender P-Bass powered by 350 watt Hartke and 300 watt
Fender amps. And yes, Tim runs straight and pure through his amp. Nothing
in between. Just low frequency thunder.
B.L.`s stage setup
consists of a 7-piece kit. Mainly Tama with a couple of Pearl Toms and a
Premier Snare. B.L. also uses Zildjian cymbals with Sabian hi-hats,
Tama and DW hardware. Are those drums or war cannons I hear?
PA gear consists of...
3200 watts (combined power amps)
16 channel PA board
4 different effects modules
2 four channel compressor/limiters
6 Peavey 15 inch woofer/titanium horn PA cabinets (4800 watts)
4 monitor cabinets
2 sub-woofer cabinets (2000 watts)
1 stereo 15x2 EQ
1 Thirty Band EQ with sub-low crossover
and enough cables, mics, stands and lights to start our own music store!
