I think they're just using the mesa roadkings live, those things can do pretty much anything anyway.

DB  - Something's WRONG.   |2008-10-02 08:17:23
Umm... There's a slight mistake. He doesn't use MXR or Line6. He also has a few Boss pedals, a ProCo Rat II, and a crybaby wah. Here's the order of the rig:
Boss TU-2 Tuner-> Boss DD-3 Digital
Delay->
Boss BF-2 Flanger-> ProCo Rat II-> Dunlop Crybaby Wah-> Boss CH-1 Super Chorus-> Whirlwind A/B Selector.
He also uses a Savage 2x12 combo.
His Gretsches have pinned-down bridges instead of
the stocked ones.
He uses a Gretsch 1959 Nashville.
I've got my connections...

Actually, he has used the mxr and Line 6 gear. Check out this article with guitarplayer from 2005: http://www.guitarplayer.com/article/chris-shiflett-on/Mar-05/2308

Thanks for the info. It looks
exactly like what guitargeek has though from 2000, which makes it older info. Can you give us your sources so we can verify and update the page if it is in fact newer info? Thanks!
