Marlique Deluxe

 With The Exploited in Quebec City, Canada at the Envol Et Macdam Festival 2011

I got this in 2011. It is a handmade Indonesian guitar with a set neck and has a very sludgy tone. This is down to the Tesla pickups which are very old school Gibson sounding. It's got Dimarzios in it now for extra intenseness.

Antoria Les Paul Gold Top

 At the Hull Adelphi with Concrete Head in 1995

This guitar ruled, unfortunately it was destroyed in an international whisky accident in Wealdstone 2000AD. I got it in 1994 for a hundred and fifty quid. I instantly replaced the pickups with a Gibson Usa PAF in the neck and a pickup of an unknown make taken out of a Seville semi acoustic because it was massively loud.

Customised Antoria Les Paul

 With Man of the Hour at The Camden Underworld in 2007

My second guitar. I got this in 1984 and it is fucking great. I've had a Khaler trem stuck on it, Grover tuners and it's had Select by EMG & now Dimarzio pickups in it. I'm not sure exactly how old it is as it was second hand when I got it. Not bad for fifty quid.

Customised Yamaha Pacifica

 With The Exploited at Cieszanów Rock Festiwal Poland 2012

Peroxide Hell started its life as a basic pleasure model, as in a Yamaha Pacifica. A perfectly good guitar and not only because they are cheap. Somewhere down the line somebody decided to stick a Seymour Duncan SH11 humbucker pickup in the bridge position. Even further down the line I was given it as a present from those nice folk at Grassworks studios where I did some vocals on my Banished From The Mages Guild album. I then gave it to George Corcoran of George Corcoran guitars who sprayed it black, refretted it with stainless steel frets, shoved a khaler trem on it, rammed an Iron Gear Steamhammer pickup in the middle position, slammed an Iron Gear Rolling Mill pickup in the bridge, crafted a wood scratchplate, put grover tuners on it, new nut and wrote my name on it. It sounds great and plays great studio rehearsal and live.
