Scheerhorn L body maple resonator guitar
Mid-1920's style 1 Weissenborn guitar - purchased for $450 from Gruhn guitars in 1988. Seemed like a lot of money at the time. The Weissenborn/Sunrise pickup combination sounds amazing! Sweet highs with huge low-end response.
Highlander Pro Acoustic Mix D.I. - two channel acoustic instrument preamplifier with phantom power. Extremely compact, high quality
  L.R. Baggs Para Acoustic D.I. -  good quality acoustic instrument preamplifier
  T.C. Electronics G Natural
Scheerhorn stainless steel slide - weighted and beveled with sharp corners for pull-offs. Once you start using them you will never go back to a Steven's bar.
  Scheerhorn "Flux" capo - Designed by Jerry Douglas. Small, compact and effective.
  AKG C535 EB microphone - Not highly sought after by reso-players but should be. This is a great instrument microphone; hotter than the AKG C1000 and captures a wider spectrum of sound
  Shure KSM32 microphone - My favorite instrument microphone.  Suitable for studio and live work. Ask Shure about the 10 foot drop test!
