Sorry I havent posted in a while, but I have these to contribute:

-He also had a Jimi Hendrix Fuzz (Big grey round one, and a Red MXR-sized pedal that I think was a Diaz Tremodillo [but its probably the Tone Ranger :D], which is next to his Emma DiscomBOBulator)

-Most of his guitars and tuned to all kinds of abstract tunings and some are modified to have buffers in them like his Customshop Gibbo does.

-His main two amps are the Diaz and SLO-100 with a Tone Tubby 4x12 and a Marshall vintage 4x12 cab.

-He also uses a Variac power soak on his amps at about 115 volts and can tell a difference between 115 and 120! (Brian Farmer, his tech, and I spent about an hour going through his stuff and taking some pics while the House of Blues guys got mad at me.)
