Love that gear vid. I'm not a gear freak and forget half of what's discussed, but I like how we can find out how the sounds are created for certain song parts. E.g. that Take These Chains bit.... :wub: (starts here)

I want one with the Maiden guys!

Yeah, a Maiden one would be ace.

This is the closest I could find, but it's not as good as the JP episode as it is with the guitar tech, not Dave:

And now something about Maiden:

Q: Is Maiden a Prog or Metal band or a bit of both ?

Faulkner: I’d say after 40 years, they’ve passed through a few different flavours. Punky and proggy being a couple. But ultimately they are a metal band for sure.

Q: Your favorite Maiden song ?

Faulkner: Love the entire Somewhere In Time album! Every track on that I love. Seventh Son has some of my favs too, Moonchild, Infinite Dreams and The Clairvoyant being some of my faves. Then there’s obv Phantom, Hallowed, Prowler, Genghis Khan and stuff too.
