Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what william clarke typically used as amp and mic set up or did it vary?

My understanding is he used a SM57 with a Boss DM2 and Bassman for at least a bit. I was listening to some of his stuff last Friday on the drive home from work and there was for sure delay on the harp stuff.

I'm sure it varied but around 96 he told me he was using an early blues blaster shell with an upgraded pot and an early Shure element (he said it was from a green bullet). As much as he used his hands that shell makes sense.

On Dvd (that I bought from Jeannette Lodovici) I saw that he used a turner mic and astatic JT 30.

i remember him walking in to the starboard attitude
in redondo beach,
he was carrying an echoplex. pretty sure i have seen him using a fender concert on more than one occasion
i remember his mic " a jt30" it had no volume control
i asked him about it
he said " a on and off switch would be nice"
those are some great photo's thanks you for that

Pete Sheridan told me he often used an Echoplex but switched to a foot pedal delay as it was more durable. Also that at one point( very long ago) he played a 6X10 fender for a while.
