Hey Guys

A few of you have emailed me about seeing some of the Duff (McKagan) related gear, so have taken pics of everything i use live.
[b]1. Franken-Sid[/b] - Started off as a Vintage Modified Squier Precision. Added a Classic Vibe Jazz Neck, Gotoh Machine Heads, All Black hardware inc. BadAss II, Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder Pickups including a Jazz Bass Pickup that needed routing into the body. Was a fun project. Pretty much my Dream Setup. Plus it is wired as two volumes, no tone! [u]Tuned to Standard[/u]
[b]2. Fender Duff McKagan Signature[/b] - Pretty much stock, although added Dunlop Strap Locks and it has been signed by the man himself on the back of the headstock. [u]Tuned to Eb[/u]
[b]3. Fender '85 Jazz Special [/b] - has been modded to Duff's spec inc. Duncan STK-J2B Bridge Pickup and Black Barrel Knobs. Have also changed the bridge and neck plate for N.O.S. Parts as the original one's have corroded as i'm not a fan of relic'd basses. [u]Tuned to Eb[/u]
[b]4. Fender Aerodyne Jazz [/b] - has been slightly modded with Seymour Duncan STK-J2B Bridge Pickup, Graph-tech Nut and have taken out the tone control and covered the hole. [u]Tuned to Drop-C[/u]
[b]5. Rack[/b] - I use this for when i do the occational big gig with the GK rig. Furman PL-Plus Power Conditioner, Korg DTR-2000, Shure U4S Wireless, Yamaha SPX-90 FX.
[b]5.1 Line 6 Bass POD Pro[/b] - I use this for rehearsals (plug this into house rig) Can get a similar GK tone with Distortion and Chorus which i use live.
[b]6. Tower of Power and Lakland[/b] - This is my dream rig. I've not had a gig to justify it yet (Wembley hasn't phoned) but who cares? We have a Gallien Krueger 2001rb head with 2 x GK 410RBH cabs. Korg Pitchblack tuner and Lakland, oh and my trust Monster Cable.

Thanks for looking!

Thanks dude. Have updated it with some descriptions. I agree about the Lakland. I get so many compliments on that bass, even more so with that Black Scratchplate!

I saw you had mentioned Billingshurst in the post your pictures thread. There's 3 pubs in Billingshurst so it wan't to difficult.

Nice Lakland.
