Bridge Tasman 5 string electo/acoustic violin |
This is my current 'axe' of choice. A brilliant sounding semi acoustic violin which doesn't suffer with the feedback issues experienced when amplifying an acoustic violin. |
Bridge Lyra 5 string electric violin |
Superb sounding hollow bodied carbon fibre and kevlar 5 string electric violin, with custom pickup. |
4 string acoustic. |
My grandfathers violin. I still use this instrument to practice on. Superb sound. |
Musicary Carbon Fibre Violin Bow. |
Excellent weight, balance and spring from this carbon fibre bow. |
Gelrest. |
A synthetic gel pack chin rest which makes the rest more comfortable, and helps reduce the "Nigel Kennedy" neck growth. |
Apple MacBook Pro laptop. |
Mines a 2.8ghz machine with 4 gig ram, 17" screen (please don't nick it off stage. Chosen for its stability over Windows XP. |
Native Instruments Guitar Rig 5 Pro Software guitar effects processor. |
Excellent software based guitar multi effects unit. Much more flexible than 99% of the hardware units out there, plus I can program it from the comfort of my own sofa. |
Native Instruments Rig Kontrol 3 Guitar Rig controller/audio interface. |
The main controller for Guitar Rig, and is also the audio interface for the Mac. I use this for additional effects modulation, expression, tuning and tap tempo. |
DMC Ground Control Plus Midi control system. |
additional MIDI controller connected to the Rig Kontrol. This allows me switch on and off 8 individual effects in the effects chain, and control the program changes. Very programmable, and built like a tank (good for me). |
Boss FV500 L Volume/Expression pedal. |
I'm using two of these as expression pedals, plugged into the Rig Kontrol 3. I can add another two into the Ground Control Pro at a further date :) |
Trantec S3500 radio transmitter. |
Good quality transmitter, never breaks up, even open air. Has multiple frequency setup. |
Thomastik Superflex violin strings (on the electrics). |
|
Warchal strings (on the acoustic). |
