Mike is a Fender fanatic, his stage gear revolves around his favourite Stratocaster a red 1961 model with rosewood fingerboard and his Vox AC30 amplifier. Backing up the Red 'Strat' (which is signed by Mark Knopfler and Hank Marvin) is his 1979 '25^th anniversary' silver Stratocaster, his 1977 Hardtail Natural Stratocaster, a 'Millennium special' stratocaster

Along with his beloved Fenders Mike uses a Alesis Quadraverb 2 loaded with the "echoes from the past" patches and a Digitech RP7 multi-effects unit for his distortion and chorus.

BeeJay is a gear nut, his workhorses are a white 1996 "Clapton" signature stratocaster with active Lace Sensor 'gold' pickups, A 2001 model Limited edition US Series Strat in Coral Pearl, a 1995 US Standard Tele in black, A 1978 Gibson Marauder with Shadow 075 Midi Pickup, A 2000 Gibson Les Paul Standard DC in AAA topped Amber, A 1999 Gibson Firebird V in sunburst, A 2001 Gibson Blues Hawk in ebony and a sunburst 'White' Twaincaster custom which was built by BeeJay himself.
