Actually, most of his tone is his cranked Ampeg VT-40 amp. My friend's got one and when I play QOTSA songs through it, it sounds spot on. I just got a Catalinbread SFT pedal that's modeled after an "old Ampeg" that does the QOTSA tone as well as the amp. When I slam it with my Stone Deaf PDF-1 it's magic.

Those Maton guitars he uses are actually very bland.

The Maestro is a parametric filter. Not a fuzz, its more like an overdrive and EQ filter. It has since been retired for the new Stone Deaf FX PDF1. His fuzzes nowdays consist of a Black Arts Pharoah Fuzz and a Fulltone Ultimate Octave. His overdrive comes from the PDF1 and FatBoosts, paired with a Boss EQ boosting the mids.

His fuzz pedal that he's been using forever is an old 60s maestro fuzz

He uses a new XO series EHX Octave Multiplexer. Carried it over from his TCV board along with the Space Echo, Morley Wah, Moog Analog Delay.

We say him Sunday, great show. He has switched from the Ernie Ball Volume pedal to the new Dunlop ones (THEY ARE HUGE!!). Also, the RotoVibe is back (it is a ST re-issue tour). And Model Ts are gone (small venue, Ryman/Nashville). He is also played a vintage tele for "Fun Machine", which appeared to be an original 72' Thinline (Black with white pearl pickguard).

Guitars:
Signature Maton
Motor Ave Bel Air
72 Tele Thinline

Pedals (Best Guess From Visuals/Hearing):
Moog Analog Delay
SIB Echodrive
Boss RE-20
Dunlop Volume Pedal
Boss GE-7
Fulltone Ultimate Octave
Octave Multiplexer
StoneDeaf Parametric Filter
Morley Fuzz Wah
Rotovibe
Korg Rack Tuner (on top amp)

..some of these I can confirm through photos, some I actually heard during the concert (multiplexer).

Amps:
Ampeg VT-40 w/ 2x12 Cab
Another Ampeg VT-40 on floor.

Was a killer show. I would love to see a pedalboard shot if someone could snag one of this tour. I knwo that probably won't happen though lol.

It is actually a Model T, the original. But the videos that I have seen, he is using them with an Ampeg vt-40. I always figured the early non-fuzz tones were a boosted vt-40, then for fuzzier tones he switched to a clean-headroom amp and used the superfuzz or Ultimate Octave (Era Vulagris, Lullabies, etc.). He has also retired his Maestro MPF-1 for the new Stone Deaf FX clone of it. It is used with the Sunn model T/Fuzzes to bring the mids back into the equation. Very good eye though man!

This is just from being a fanboy. Was excited to be watching new videos and finding out what he was using, yet again!

It looks like Queens have been doing shows again, as of August 2010 (select dates in LA, festivals in Europe, etc...) And it looks like Josh has abandoned his typical Ampeg rig for a Sunn Model T, or
similar high gain Sunn tube head. I can't tell if it is an original Model T or a 90's Fender-era re-issue... but if you look up footage of the 2010 Lowlands festival on YouTube- you'll see it.
