GEARS

FENDER STRATOCASTER AMERICAN STANDARD

This is probably my favourite guitar to play.
The neck is extramely comfortable to me.
Fully loaded with Seymour Ducan YJM Fury pickups at the bridge and neck position.
The center pickups is not connected, as well as the tone knobs. This is the guitar I use the most during live shows.

FENDER STRATOCASTER YJM SIGNATURE

2006 circa.
The guitar neck and construction in general is amazing.
Love the scalloped neck for bending and vibrato.
Loaded with DiMarzio HS3 pickups from the factory, I used this Guitar many times in the past for both live and recording studio sessions. The song "Misanthropy" was recorded with this guitar.

CUSTOM WARMOTH + EGO GUITAR NECK

Chambered swamp ash Warmoth body with flamed top.
22 frets neck custom made by Ego Marconi Lab (Italy) with custom logo at the 1st fret.
Seymour Duncan Super Distortion bridge position, Seymour Ducan YJM Fury in neck position.
The center pickups is not connected. Hardware and tremolo by Gototh. Used this guitar a lot for my last album recordings.

FENDER STRATOCASTER LIMITED EDITION (2022)

Alder body, 22 frets ebony fingerboard. 9.5'' radius that I LOVE. My favourite radius ever.Neck shape: C modern
Fender Player Series Stratocaster pickups single-coil neck/middle, bridge humbucker
2-point fulcrum tremolo bridge with vintage-style bent steel saddles, sealed, die-cast tuners
This Strat is really violent!

EKO YJM SIGNATURE

Bought this guitar in Italy many years ago for a few hundred bucks.
22 frets scalloped neck. I customized it in all its parts. Replaced the factory pickups with DiMarzio HS3 (bridge) and DiMarzio Chopper (bridge).
Gold leaf body I made myself, and real mother of pearl inlay on the body I did myself.
This is the hardest guitar to play I have. I use it mostly to practice, because after a few weeks I use this one, the other ones feel so "easy" to play.

IBANEZ FGM100 Frank Gambale Signature (1992-93)

Original in all its parts, this is an original Ibanez FGM100 Frank Gambale Signature, from 1992 or 1993.
Made in Japan, probably one of the best Ibanez guitars ever made. The neck is incredible, and you can have any sound you wish with this axe.
I don't play if often, but I love it.

YAMAHA RGX 621D

This is the 2nd guitar I owned when I was a young kid.
I never sold this guitar beacuse I think it has the MOST AMAZING NECK I ever played. Much better than much more expensive guitar I had.
Pickups and hardware are all original. Unfortunately I lost the tremolo bar.
The sign on the body is from Yngwie J. Malsteen, in 1995, during the Magnum Opus tour.
I used it a lot in the 90s for my live shows and I recorded the first SevenGates album "Unreality" with it.

EPIPHONE CHET ATKINS SIGNATURE

Great guitar, I used it to record the classical guitar intro on "Misanthropy".

DOD 308 YJM

A life saver, this is absolutely my favourite overdrive pedal.
I use it always, in both studio and live situations.
It adds a nice sound to any kind of amp you are using.
I own 2 of them! I would feel lost without it!.

FENDER YJM OVERDRIVE PEDAL

Another great overdrive pedal from Fender. I use this a lot too, especially in studio. Not so aggressive as the DOD308, but still very good tone.

DOD 250 OVERDRIVE PREAMP

I got this overdrive out of curiosity.
I never used it very much, but is has a very nice 70s tone.

BOSS NS2

Another life saver for my live shows. Removes all the hum, especially when you use single coil pickups and when you use the DOD overdrive.
I own 2 of these!

BOSS TU3 TUNER

I need this for my live shows.
Very accurate tuner!

KEMPER POWERHEAD AMP

I had many valve amps. Marshall Plexi, Engl, Splawn. I am not a fan of digital amps, but when you have no room for your amps, Kemper is the best solution.
I love all the options it offers, and it is super useful to record guitars at home.
Very nice to travel with too. No more heavy heads and speaker to travel with.
I use it every day, and I love it!
