"New for the Final Frontier tour, this Les Paul is completely stock. Murray originally bought it for practicing in hotels, but it was so nice he now plays it onstage. Itуs the first Les Paul he has used live in about 20 years. The top is so flamey that the burst pops out on the JumboTron."
"Smithуs second signature-model Jackson sports a maple neck and black pickguard, but is otherwise identical to its mate."

This MFC10 MIDI foot controller switches programs on Smithуs Lexicon MX200 multi-effects unit.
"Except for the Floyd Rose trem, this Fender Dave Murray Signature Strat is exactly the same as Fenderуs production model, which is based on Murrayуs у57 Strat that originally belonged to the late Paul Kossoff. When on tour, Murray plays this Strat every night on рIron Maiden.с The guitar features DiMarzio Super Distortion pickups in the neck and bridge positions."

"New for the Final Frontier tour, this Les Paul is completely stock. Murray originally bought it for practicing in hotels, but it was so nice he now plays it onstage. Itуs the first Les Paul he has used live in about 20 years. The top is so flamey that the burst pops out on the JumboTron."
"Janick Gersу main guitar is this Strat, which he uses for about 75% of the live show. It has Seymour Duncan JB Jr. (neck and bridge) and Hot Rails (middle) pickups, as well as lots of tape on the back to protect the guitar from his metal belt. Gers also throws this guitar around a bitяnote the battle scars."
Smithуs early-у70s SG has stock Gibson humbuckers.
"Other than Seymour Duncan JB Jr. and Hot Rails pickups, Gersу worn Fender Strat has no mods."
"Murray uses his TC Electronic G-Force (which is sandwiched between two pairs of Marshall JMP-1s and JFX-1s) for about seven patch changes. The G-Force connects to the Marshall JMP-1 effects loop. The JMP-1 then feeds the return of three Marshall JCM2000 heads, which are only used as power amps. All rack devices are connected to a Pete Cornish power supply and routing unit, both of which are visible here above the yellow-taped Korg DTR-1 tuner."

Murrayуs cream American Standard Strat is approximately 15 years old and features hardware identical to his main black Strat.
"Gersу rack includes a Shure UR4D wireless receiver, a Mesa/Boogie Studio Preamp, and a Pete Cornish switcher/EQ system that looks like a cross between a у70s stereo and the control panel from an early sci-fi movie. Gers uses extra-thick Pete Cornish cables for about 85 percent of a Maiden show, but switches to the wireless system when he throws his guitar in the air or engages in mock fights with the bandуs mascot, Eddie, onstage."
