They didn't start using the Peavey Mace amps until "Gimme Back My Bullets", released in 1976.

Gary played Washburn's with The Rossington Band and the phase shifter he got on Call Me The Breeze was built into the Peavey Mace.

There is a photo online of Gary playing a late 80's Squier Stratocaster in Black.
After research this was found to be during the 'Rossington Band' era (NOT Rossington-Collins) and is thought to be played at the gig as a one-off 'play&sign' autographed prize to give to a fan afterwards.

The red strat looking guitar is a peavey preator not a washburn. And he used that in the rossington collins band...

I have never seen gary play a strat. LPs and SG for freebird. Back in the 80s with the Rossington Band he endorsed washburn and played some strat shaped washburns but never saw gary with a fender.

He may have used a MXR Phase 90 or Maestro Phaser back in the old days. i think all they used in '70s was a phaser to the peavey amps.
