Acoustic Guitar:
• McPherson 4.0 XP Redwood / Bubigna
• Orangewood Sierra TS McPherson is top of the heap, no question. Has clarity and punch and plays effortlessly. The Orangewood really surprised me. It’ s a great mid-range priced guitar with character. A great alternative to a Martin 000-28!
Electric Guitar( s):
• Shelton Skyflite
• Gibson Murphy Lab 1959 ES-335 Reissue
• Mulecaster Shelton is the best gutiar builder you’ ve never heard. Or you have heard of him from us over at Worship Tutorials and Signal Theory. He takes the best of modern and traditional elements and makes a looker of a guitar that plays phenomenally. Mine has a custom set of Lambertone Triple Shots that I love to DEATH. The 335 is my white whale guitar that I’ ve always wanted. It has all the mojo you could want. Sounds incredible too with the ThroBak SLE 101s that are in there. The Mulecaster is the most inspriing guitar I’ ve ever played. It’ s made of steel and hollow and strung to baritone tuning.
GuitarAmp( s):
• Bad Cat Era 30
• Benson Chimera
• Matchless HC30 All three are great amps and speak for themselves if you are familiar. The Era 30 is Mark Sampson’ s crown jewel. It’ s everything he’ s learned about making amps into one incredible design. Pristine and vibe. Definitely need to check one out if you haven’ t!
Effect Pedals:
• Browne Protein
• JHS Kilt10
• Origian Cali 76 FET
• Eventide H90
• Strymon Bigsky MX
• Chase Bliss Gravitas and Mood
• Pinstripe DISO I’ ve tried a lot of pedals but these all are top of the heap for what they do. The Browne
