well dude. unfortunately we are all rather computer retarded in band so we just use the good old fashioned guitar , amp and keyboards. no fancy stuff. i use a fender telecaster with a boss gt-6 pedals board and a jcm marshall stack. if your looking for a killer guitar sound make sure you invest in a compresser pedal. very important.
justin uses a fender hot rod deville 2 x 12. the best amp on the market in my eyes. if your looking for a big sound dude im afraid you have to spend the money.
do you get distortion with the gt-6 or do you use the overdrive on your amp? does justin use any effects? and what pickups do you use- ie neck, bridge or both?
