Guitars
The primary Andy Timmons signature — a Strat-shaped Ibanez with custom single-coil-sized humbuckers that produce the warm, articulate lead tone. The AT100 bridges the tonal gap between single-coil clarity and humbucker warmth.
Unique to this artist in the database
Used through his Danger Danger and early solo career — multiple Stratocasters, often modified for single-coil humbuckers to increase output while retaining the Strat body.
Amplifiers
Primary amp — the Mark IV's five-band graphic EQ allows Timmons to dial in the precise mid-frequency emphasis that gives his lead tone its warm, singing character. The Mark IV's lead channel is warm and compressed.
