Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

In photos you posted, there are 4 different guitars.

- The first 2 photos you posted, are the Jackson Soloist with a sticker/artwork. That guitar was the main backup guitar for the HSH Jackson during SSOASS cycle. Seen in the guitar rack during DOD sessions. Likely carried during AOB/TCW tours as a secondary backup.

- The 3rd photo is a Lado HSS Strat that was the main backup for the HSH Jackson during SIT cycle.

- 4th photo is some kind of a soloist with dot inlays.

- 5th photo is the HS soloist (no neck pickup) from The Tower video
I've never seen another photo of that Lado Strat, it's one of his most elusive guitars (that he's played live at least).

Most obvious changes I can see are the saddles, saddle screws and string locking bolts have been replaced on Dave's Sunburst and white Strat, and possibly a titanium nut on Adrian's green Jackson.

I use FU-Tone parts myself, personally I noticed very little difference in tone, but I went with red parts so at least they look awesome :cool:

I guess it's more about durability.
 
I found this picture today on Instagram, in that same post I read that Dave used this Gibson last night in Pittsburgh for Wasted Years.
So odd to see Dave with an SG. He last used one in 1981, iirc. He seems to like bringing out a rhythm guitar for Wasted Years, like the Flying V in 2012.
Indeed, he did. I guess this is a unicorn. Approved by Adrian.
They are all happy to see a new guitar live, especially Adrian. Me too. The Three Amigos like white guitars.
That guitar was in the vault for basically the whole tour this year. And it seems like Dave finally brought it out.
Last year (or was it this year?) Dave had another guitar that he hadn't used live yet, right? Like Adrian's other acoustic in 2022.

This year. Last year he had the Henrik Danhage Charvel with his Duncan pickguard.

This year the guitars that are there but not used / rarely used are the Cream and Black Floyd Rose Classic Strats, Birthday Strat and the SG.

Did Davey ever use the Henrik Charvel? I almost thought it might have been Colin's, maybe a gift from Davey?

I think it was Davey's as it had his pickguard. I think Henrik gave one to his favourite guitarists. I think Richie Sambora also got one and is his main guitar at the moment.
