iv heard from a friend Warren had a white marshall, either plexi or jcm 800, that he had modified. super hot. and George Lynch would always steal it from him after shows. he'd take it to his house and try to analyze what exactly made it sound so good. warren would call all freaked out at first, George! did you take my head again?! and lynch would reply, Yes.. ill bring it back :(

Warren also used custom Steel picks on the invasion of your privacy tour. my dads friend was doing stage security when they came to, i think, reno. and got the metal pick for my dad when warren threw it out into the crowd. i have it now :) pretty hard to get used to but once you do its great, very unique attack. not sure when he started or stopped using them.
