My Rig for Tonequest.
Guitar in pic is a
Yamaha Pacifica 912J from '95 with stock pickups Dimarzio PAF Pro and Dimarzio HS2 x 2. The other Guitar used at the later part of the afternoon was the
Godin Multiac Steel Duet (Non Midi) with stock LR Baggs pickups. I also used my old
Gibson Goldtop circa '69 with stock pickups in the final segment of demonstrating the rich tonal range of a a full tube amp head with a 4x12 speaker cab and also the versatility of the
Hughes & Kettner Triamp MkI. Others guitars I brought for the event included my beloved Lindy Fralin equipped
