well here it is. the univox , space echo & the MM HD130 are all alternates ,,,,,,,, (that rock)

the GO BOS or BAFFLES are used to keep my sound out of the drum mics when we're recording

eventide h949 harmonizer , music man hd130 (all tube , pwr & pre) and my 1969 Marshall Super Bass 100 - look out!

univox echo sitting on a custom giant capacitor that takes the load from the Vai Legacy head , X100B

EP2 Tube Echoplex , sweet georgia brown

yep thats a Variac - I prefer 65 volts but my amp dude ( doug ) literally gets angry and emotional about me running it so low

2 57's at target rich enviornments

go bos use to belong to " THE DOORS " or so I was told. I feel it!

the cabs are carvin's with the crap tolex scraped off... sliver mine fields... ouch!

custom slip on adidas , very comfortable and an amazing tone. d , d , t , f , p , h

got it from my friend Jett , strat plus with Bill Lawrence pick ups & a custom " Performance " neck that is an exact replica of Frank Zappa's yellow strat with the raised Floyd

custom ( RON ) Bridges guitar with a Shecter neck & a Seth Lover

got it from my friend Curtis , extremely light satin finish american standard body ( I think ) from 80's with a 57 reissue neck - evh in the bridge ,,, and everywhere else

custom ( RON ) Bridges semi hallow guitar with one of the all time greatest necks - AN OG KRAMER PACER . lipstick in the neck & a TA in the bridge. The film " Best In Show " shot a seen in my studio & when they were all here Christopher Guest would be playing this guitar everywhere he went ( he just loved it ) just walking around with a strap, he was playing some super bad ass chops , the guy is a great player , I took a photo of him playing it but the film got jammed and exposed later when the roll was rewinding. MAJOR BUMMER! I can still visualize him and his expression the exact moment I took it. It was great! ..

THIS IS THE ONE! MY FRIEND TIM GAVE ME THIS GUITAR IN HIGH SCHOOL. I FIRST BEGAN BORROWING IT FROM HIM IN THE 7TH GRADE. IT IS A RANIER. THIS GUITAR HAS A BIG FAT NECK WITH HIGH ACTION & A FLOPPY FLOYD ROSE WITH A TBAR FROM A 60'S LES PAUL. THE EMG IN THE NECK WORKS & ODDLY ENOUGH IT SOUNDS REALLY COOL. I LIT IT ON FIRE IN THE 80'S CUS I'M AN IDIOT & THEN I STARTED TO DRILL HOLES IN IT CUS I'M AN IDIOT. MY PLAN WAS TO HAVE SMALL HOLES TO BIG HOLES. I STOPPED ON THE SECOND HOLE BECAUSE IT WAS THE BIGGEST DRILL BIT MY DAD HAD & IT WAS A BITCH TRYING TO GET THROUGH THAT SWAMP ASH . CAN'T RECALL IF THAT WAS WHY TIM GAVE IT TO ME... WOULDN'T SURPRISE ME! MY FRIEND FROM MANY YEARS AGO MATT GAVE ME THAT DTUNA , IT IS AN OG PROTO TYPE. I'VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO GET IT TO WORK RIGHT...

this very special guitar was designed by my friend / musical mentor Dweezil Zappa. He gave me this guitar back in the late 80's and it was a total surprise. I'll never forget it, he called me like on a Tuesday night & sounding not like his usual self he said " hey can you come over right now " I was like um okay sure ( inside I was thinking something doesn't feel right ) anyway I show up & he had like a 100 guitars ( I ain't kidding ) all laying out ( some still in cases that were open ) in Frank's studio & he's just sitting there playing ( like most always ) and he starts telling me about the different ones I hadn't seen and so forth & then he tells me to check out that purple sparkle one that Kramer built for him. He told me that it was the cousin or brother ( I forget ) to the one he was sitting there playing ( which is his cowhide guitar ) It has a couple differences ( mainly it's a neck through that had active elec) ( & the cowhide was originally chartreuse sparkle ) anyway , he asked what do you think do you like it & I was like yeah it feels f'n great & then he said--- It's yours.......... It still gets me emotional.

Kramer body my friend Scott gave me or sold cheaply to me with a ebony fretless neck . JB in the bridge which was the og pick up in my main red strat

ernie ball , didn't have the $ for Ed's so I got the next best thing , my friend Ben was endorsed & got me the smokin deal..... I love sitting & playing this guitar , they are so well made , but I'm a big dude & standing up with it just doesn't feel or look right

ah the mini guitar. this thing sounds killer , it ain't one of them cheepies , although I did buy it from a guy off the street for $30 . I told em the neck was warped. Must of been the lighting.

this cool little thing has my name on the headstock , ya know why? , because my friend/mentor Dweezil gave me this thing for Xmas several years back. How cool is that. Someday I'll get him back with a guitar that he'll love. and by the way , these things plugged in sound fantastic. I'm serious it does.

lefty P Bass given to me from my friend Ben. I love it. It is a great way to play bass & NOT sound like a guitar player. I just play everything upside down. works wonderfully

P Bass , my friend Norm's that he just said here you use it . I'm a lucky guy.

wurly , again my friend Norm
