Karl  - Invaders   |2009-10-15 15:27:33 He did use Invaders at one point, i remember seeing them on one of his Dominion guitars, then he put emg covers ontop of them but i don't think he still uses them? but i'm sure he did at one point Reply 0   0

Karl   |2009-07-16 11:02:35 I doubt he'd be using an Adrian Smith model, it was probably just a regular Jackson San Dimas model Reply 1   1

Taylor  - ZW wah too   |2009-04-15 20:33:55 Mark also uses a Zakk Wylde Crybaby as stated in GuitarPlayer magazine Reply 0   0

Sean   |2009-01-06 11:39:36 Umm no, he doesen't use EMGs, he put the EMG cover over the SD 59' to stop sweat from dripping into it from his picking hand. Reply 6   1
