Guitars Notes: I couldn't find exacts on colors/ exact models for these guitars, so the links are as close as I could guess to what he uses. It is hard to find out exactly which color guitars he's used via all my research. - Gibson Les Paul Customs for Too Fast For Love Shows 1981-1983.   - Gibson Les Paul Custom, B.C. Rich Warlock, Gibson Flying V and Guild Flying Star during the Shout At The Devil tour 1983-1984.   
- Hamer Explorers, Kramer Barettas and Kramer Pacers during the Theatre Of Pain tour 1985-1986.

- Kramer Custom Shop "mirror top" Telecasters and a variety of Barettas and custom shop Kramers during the Dr. Feelgood tour 1989-1990. (Fender Stratocaster in Don't Go Away Mad video.)
- Fender Stratocasters and Telecaster, Gibson Les Pauls, Charvel Super Strat and Paul Reed Smiths (CE22) during the Decade of Decadance Shows 1991 - 1993. Note: It's known that he has a 68 and a 69 reissue strat, which I conveniently have linked below next to the PRS CE22
