Mark 1 Reissue & Mesa Recto-Verb 25 amp

I’ve been using two Mark 1 Reissue amps on my shows and Phil Collins tours since the early 2000’s. I had them customized with EL-34 power tubes and Celestion Vintage 30 speakers.

I’ve recently added two Mesa Recto-Verb 25 amps to my arsenal. They are the perfect combo amps for most situations. They pack a lot of power and yet are a fairly lightweight amp – about 40 lbs.

Daryl Stuermer Pedalboard for Club Shows

This is my pack & run pedalboard. It’s lightweight and compact. There are enough quality pedals here for most situations. It’s great for taking to a club for a sit in.
