My Gear - Pic Heavy

Hey guys.

I'm not sure if this is the correct room for this or not, so please feel free to move it if it's wrong :)

I've been saying for ages that I needed to get some upto date photos of my gear, so I took the time out today and snapped a few.

Sorry about the quality of some of the photos, had to take them with my phone as my parents have the camera on holiday.

All the thumbnails are links to the fullsize photos.

Lets start with Guitars:

My 1998 Gibson LP Standard with nickel covered Bareknuckle AIV Mules



Gordon Smith Graduate 60 with custom options and bookmatched headstock, with a Bareknuckle Black Dog bridge, and a Riff Raff neck



The 'BrowCaster'. An originally black Japanese Strat that I found while at college. I stripped it, oiled it with Linseed Oil and sealed it with wax. Has a set of aged Bareknuckle Mothers Milks in it.




Modified 1976 Fender Music Master. This now has a set of Bareknuckle Slowhands in it, with a baseplate on the bridge pickup, and a push/pull tone control for series/parallel operation



1993 Fender Strat with Bareknuckle Crawler/Irish Tour/Irish Tour in it. Has a push/pull volume control for coil tap of the Crawler


Late 80s/Early 90s Charvel Fusion Special. When I bought this guitar it had 2 stacked humbuckers side-by-side in the bridge position, with another in the neck. A friend of mine routed it out for me and it now has a Bareknuckle Cold Sweat in the bridge and a Bareknuckle Trilogy Suite in the neck. Of the 5 positions on the switch, only 2 work; bridge pickup or neck pickup!



My Gould Telecaster. It has a Bareknuckle Piledriver in the bridge and a custom made scratchplate made for this guitar by Jonathan at Feline.


Gretsch Electromatic Pro Jet. I kinda bought this 1 on a whim while recording back in January. I may be sending the Mini humbuckers to be re-wound or I may sell it, I haven't decided yet.



Dean Exotica FM Electro Acoustic. Has a Shadow pickup system in it.


continued...........

Yamaha RBX 270 bass. Still has the stock pickups in it. Used when I played bass in my current band, and for the occasional bit of recording. Currently for sale.


1 Purple/Midnight Blue Strat to follow, but I don't get that for a few more weeks yet. So pics will follow as and when they can :D

Next up is pedals:

This is my main gigging pedalboard:



The signal path is: HBE Medicine Bawl Wah==HBE Uno Mos Boost==Roger Mayer Voodoo Axe Fuzz/Buffer==BOSS TU2 Pedal Tuner==HBE CPR Compressor Retro==HBE Power Screamer Overdrive==G2D Custom Overdrive==HBE UFO Fuzz/Octave==WOBO 3-channel Bypass Looper==BOSS CE5 Chorus and BOSS TR2 Tremolo (Loop 1)==MXR Phase 90 (Loop 2)==Ibanez DE7 Delay/Echo (Loop 3)==HBE Dos Mos 2 channel Boost

I had a few extra pedals lying around, so I made up the next board for when I'm jamming with friends or for when I don't have floor space for my main board :D


The signal path is: Modified Vox V847 wah==Jap BOSS SD1 Super Overdrive==Modified Ibanez TS9 Tubescreamer Re-Issue==EH Small Stone Nano==BOSS GE7 EQ

Some great gear there Craig. Apart from the Gretsch, but I'll dispose of that for you!!! :D
 
Re: My Gear - Pic Heavy

Wow, that's a LOT of badass stuff you got. There's no way you can put all that to good use, I better take some for you. So are you one of those guys that's constantly selling and trading stuff, or do you just hang onto everything you buy?

Cool stuff Brow....what happened to the Strat headstock??

I have no idea.

It was like that when I found it :)

I don't constantly buy/sell stuff, nor keep everything. It's just stuff I've acquired over the last 12 years or so. Stuff comes in, stuff goes out as and when I need the space or something else catches my eye ;)

Cool guitars and pedalboard. But... shouldn't you be at the Bareknuckle forum? ;)

I am over on the BKF board too. But before I had BKs, I had Duncans in everything :sword:
