More on guitars on this tour.
Dave - His main guitar is now a black 70's reissue Stratocaster with rosewood fingerboard that can be seen in New Year's eve videos with Alice Cooper. The pickups have been changed to all white. His Secondary guitar is a Les Paul Axcess with Seymour Duncans.
Adrian - He uses two AS Jacksons with ebony fingerboards for standard tuning. One is 2008 prototype and the other is a standard production model. He switches them every few songs (prototype on SOL, COTD, production model on TOAC,TRAT, although it seems he still prefers the prototype, which has been his main guitar since 2008 (it is used on more songs). You can distinguish them by looking at the end of headstock, the prototype says Custom Shop instead of his signature. His main drop-d guitar is still the maple 2008 prototype AS. On FOTD and IM he uses Gibson Slash AFD Les Paul in Rosso Corsa with the Slash logo covered with tape (similar to what John Norum did on his Slash LP).
Janick - His three main cable guitars are still the black and white strats and the sunburst Sandberg. The creme strat is still his main wireless guitar and the "White Spirit" white strat is still used on IM. He also plays a black Epiphone Black Beauty 3 Les Paul in drop d.

Adrian with the 2008 prototype.
And with the production model.
I'm sure I've seen a pic of Jan with the Gibson Chet Atkins acoustic electric, too, the one he used for Dance of Death in the past. I assume he played it on the Book of Souls intro
yes! cheers!Starts at around 16:45 in this video:
Two setlist observations -
1. This is the most balanced album tour setlist I've seen from them since maybe Brave New World. A great mix of all (except Empire) of my favorite new songs as well as a few old surprises. First album tour to see Powerslave since, well, Powerslave. Awesome choice!!
2. When was the last tour we heard nothing from Seventh Son? Early days? Seems surprising - they must have gotten tired of playing those songs for the last 2+ years.
Nice footage. I see what people are talking about regarding Bruce's voice on The Book of Souls now. He's either genuinely struggling or backing away from the higher notes to avoid straining himself. The song still works very well, but it's a bit of a pity, I see that song as the centrepiece to the show, if not the album.
