GT: Do you have a type of pick that you can’t live without?
AS: For the longest time I’ve been using Jazz 3 style picks. There’s a company that makes them for me out in the States and I have to make them white so I can see them when I drop them on the stage, ha-ha!
GT: If you had to give up all your pedals but three, what would they be?
AS: My pedals are all quite simple, though my favourites have to be the Analog Man Beano Boost, the Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer, and also an old Ibanez chorus pedal I use with the setting maxed out. The others I could live without.
