I’m just wondering about his equipment in the mutter tour, i noticed richard used a silver guitar that had a superstrat body and a red guitar that had sort of a ibanez iceman. What are those guitars?

There seem to be lots and lots of questions on how Richard gets the sound he does. But, that sound is really just 2 Rectifiers running in stereo, with active EMG pickups on his ESPs and perhaps some of a boost and pre-eq. I mean, his sound IS the classic Mesa/Boogies Dual rectifier sound, just a bit sharper and perhaps gated a bit tighter. That’s it.
