Guitar World : Have you ever considered an SG Supreme?
D : Sure, I?d like to own a Supreme, but I?m happy with my collection of Les Pauls. I?ve got a 1960 Les Paul Honey Burst that?s all original, a Zakk Wylde bullseye with active EKG pickups, and a couple other projects where I?ve loaded them up with deluxe locking tuners and noiseless pickups.

Guitar World : Any other guitars worth mentioning?
D : Well I?m the original owner of a 1977 Gibson RD Artist. a cool concept with the integrated MOOG electronics, but way too heavy to gig with. I?ve got a platinum Les Paul studio, a cherry burst studio, a cherry Epiphone Les Paul, a Jackson Randy Rhoads V? Schecter, Washburn, ummm a crazy machine gun Hondo made in the early ?80?s.

Guitar World : Any acoustics?
D : Oh yeah, Ovation made this awesome metallic orange flame Elite T for Guitar Center. Damn, I was just on the Ovation site and see they have a purple and yellow tribal design one now. I also have the ugly Tangent blue surf board looking one. I?ve got a metallic green Washburn festival series and a cheap 12 string Fender with a Dean Markley under the bridge pickup. Yeah, that one is a real player.

Guitar World : Any other hobbies?
D : Lot?s of traveling. Last month I went to Atlantic City and played poker, Texas hold ?em, Black Jack, slots, 7 card stud ? until I lost all my money. I hit some wineries on the way over to Snowshoe Mountain, WV. God, that?s some pretty country over that way. I guess now that I?m home I?ll have to entertain myself with on line gambling and break bones without being strapped to a snowboard. It?s probably warm enough to ride my Screaming Eagle Harley Davidson and do some damage if I run it into a power pole. UGH.

Guitar World : Enough death and destruction. What kind of pre amps and electronics do you use?
D : Let?s see ? well of course there?s my TSL 100 Marshall, a Line 6 amp, got an original crate, you know the one with the pinewood casing. I?ve got an original MXR distortion. Honestly, I can?t believe it still functions after 30 years. Ibanez Tube Screamer, sweet. Morley wah wah / volume and some other junk. For recording I use a Digitech GNX floorboard. It?s just too complicated to use live, but great if you need unlimited effects.
