“Here’s my board as it looked that minute of that day,” Ian Breukelaar says with a laugh. His Diago board hosts a Boss GE-7 EQ and TU-2 Tuner, a Dunlop Cry Baby from Hell, an MXR GT-OD, a Vox Time Machine delay, a Boss BF-3 Flanger and CE-5 Chorus Ensemble, with an MXR Smart Gate at the end. An MXR DC Brick provides power. “Most of my sound is my ESP or Jackson into a Peavey 6505+, with a little GE-7 EQ to dial it in, and a Smart Gate so it will STFU,” explains Ian. “The rest is just for fun!”
