A lot of Rick's gear was destroyed in the tornado/stage collapse in Ottawa, Ontario Canada, summer 2011. Since they narrowly escaped with their lives, the loss of guitars and gear is put into perspective.

I've been backstage with Rick and Cheap Trick a couple times. He is a very smart guy. Robin and Rick both played my 80 Hamer Special that I brought to have autographed. The road manager told me I could not bring my guitar backstage to the dressing room. She was not very nice. I told Rick that I played Hamer for nearly 30 years because he did. So he told me to go get the guitar. He and Robin laughed at the condition of the case, but they loved the guitar and asked to play it.
It was very very cool. Rick told me has no idea how many guitars he has as it changes daily. He told me he trades with everyone from Billy Gibbons to Paul McCartney.

Last time I saw Ricks rig was in a club so I got a good look
he was playing through 1 rivera amp( 1-12) and had a wall of fake stack cabinets that lit up his sounds was awsome
Tom Peterson on the other hand had the syack of doom!
too many amps to mention but one for each of the 3-4 out puts on his hamer 12 sting bass
Robin Zander paled through a marshall half stack
