Gary's gear in the USA: Paul Reed Smith guitar, Korg AX1500G effects processor, Carvin 8400 powered mixer, Boss BR-1180 digital recorder, Yamaha Motif 8 keyboard, and a nameless but useful bass guitar. Spoken parts were added in various locations, and the singing was done in Bristol using Sennheiser 421, Cakewalk, and domestic PC. John's guitar in the picture is solely for posing purposes. |
