Here is a photo Martin’s 7-string and his customised
Ibanez 6-string RG550LTD. Again favouring EMG
pick-ups, this guitar was used for the majority of lead
work on the album. Originally black with a mirrored scratchplate, the amazing graphic was hand painted
by talented artist Sheila Wallis.

Martin’s handmade custom 7 string as built by world class luthier Ian Atherton of Charlie Chandlers Guitar Experience in Hampton Wick (see link page).  Alder body, EMG 707 pick-ups, Birdseye maple neck with Ebony fretboard, Ibanez bridge. This guitar was based on the Ibanez Universe. Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier Solo Head (which was used throughout the recordings for ‘Reality Dysfunction.’) and a 2+12 cabinet loaded with vintage 30’s which was custom built by Charlie Chandler.





Charlie’s instrument of choice is this Musicman
JP signature. It’s one of the first 50 off the production
line and very nice it is too.

Here is a close-up of Sheila’s work on the 6-string. It features most but not all the cast, answers on a postcard please!!
