Quoting tony:
When did he stop using EMG's? I know he doesn't anymore, but when did he stop? I think he may have stopped right before or after recording the All Down Hill From Here album. Any input would be appreciated. thanks


I think you meant the Catalyst album. but yeah i was wondering the same thing.
