Luke has a new LACS custom RG from Ibanez. He's posted a few in studio vids on his vimeo. Here's the link.

His tone on the album Fortress is absolutely perfect. They are masters of recording, and they really know how to utilize dynamics to make their music sound more powerful than the heaviest death metal bands, who brickwall their mastering and sound weak because of it. Luke Hoskin and Tim Millar are brilliant guitarists, for a brilliant band. :-) I'll learn a lot from this rig. :idea:

No, he's not. He's still using VHT/Fryette. I saw PTH in September and he was running a Sig:-x with a Deliverance as backup.
