I'm into playing guitars, not into figuring out what else goes on with them.
In the studio, my brother and I have always used a lot of Marshall amps. We like to keep it pretty basic. We just use a couple of cabinets each - sometimes just one, if we think that's enough. We mainly go for 100-watt and 50-watt heads.
I called Leo Fender, the dead guy, a dork. Now I'll never get an endorsement.
I keep changing my stuff. I used to play through a Marshall JCM800, and then I also had a Randy Rhoads signature amp. So before I was playing EVH, I was playing an ODB pedal. I still have my Dunlop Jerry Cantrell wah pedal because I love that.
I want a thousand guitars . . .
I've always used the Peavey Mace equipment. I've got a few of them. They're kind of like Marshalls. You know, we used to use Marshalls, but Peaveys just seem to last longer and push the sound better.
I know it is one of the most important instruments and inventions, the electric guitar, to me, since television or movies or anything like that.
I'm using Fender Twin Reverbs and Fender Blues Devilles on stage.
My sound is just vintage Vox AC30s and Marshalls... Matchless amps are cool as well.
