Dave's setup

I've been working to get Dave's setup...I use a Martin with a fishman matrix saddle pickup....does anyone know what amp and cabinet he uses? Ive been going between a fender twin and a vox ac30...it sounds ok, but I'm curious to know what he uses.....(I have a b-day on the way and the wife wants some hints)....if anyone knows his effects loop it would be cool too.....

Actually, I *believe* Dave goes through a POD and then straight into the PA whenever possible. This is what their road site says:

Shure UHF Wireless System
Meyer Sound CP-10 Parametric Equalizer
Eventide GTR-4000 Ultra-Harmonizer
Line 6 Guitar POD
Korg DTR-1 Digital Tuner

Not necessarily in that order, but that's the gear he uses. I think in some smaller gigs, like in-stores, etc. he uses a Trace-Elliot acoustic amp. I can't back that one up, though. He also uses a Fender amp for playing w/his Chets, when he does. He runs a mix of the signal from the Chet through the PA, and then runs it into the Fender and crunches it a little with the overdrive to get that classic tone he's famous for. Hope this helps.

Do you guys know what settings Dave has on his pod? And which songs are set for what?

i dont know his settings, but ive been switching between the jazz clean, small tweed #2, and britt class A #3 depending on how much treble i want (i tend to keep my EQ's even)....this seems to be working fine for now(the line 6 blues isnt bad either)....when i play solo (or with just one other guitarist), i use the chorus and a slight delay built in....for the timmy solos, i use the marshall setting completely clean, and i bought a treble booster pedal for his slide work...by the way, i use a martin for dave's parts and i switch between that and a 335 for timmy's parts (the gibson has a very bright sound). try these out, and if anyone else has any ideas, please post them.....

If you go on Kazaa and download the 1999 Woodstock performance of #41, there's a scene where you can see his amp in the background. Looks like a Twin or something. Can't quite tell... maybe one of you experts can?
