John McGeoch - Equipment

Equipment

His first electric guitar was a red Commodore.

During his Magazine days, he played a Yamaha SG 1000 guitar, used along a MXR flanger. He bought his first model in 1977 (or 1976, as he also declared), by the time Magazine got their first recording deal.

When he was in The Armoury Show, he also used a Squier 1957 Stratocaster.

During his last days with PIL and during his time with Pacific, he played a solid wood Carvin electric guitar.

Famous quotes containing the word equipment:

    Biological possibility and desire are not the same as biological need. Women have childbearing equipment. For them to choose not to use the equipment is no more blocking what is instinctive than it is for a man who, muscles or no, chooses not to be a weightlifter.
    Betty Rollin (b. 1936)

    Why not draft executive and management brains to prepare and produce the equipment the $21-a-month draftee must use and forget this dollar-a-year tommyrot? Would we send an army into the field under a dollar-a-year General who had to be home Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays?
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    At the heart of the educational process lies the child. No advances in policy, no acquisition of new equipment have their desired effect unless they are in harmony with the child, unless they are fundamentally acceptable to him.
