Figured i would add that she's been using a big box EHX Deluxe Memory Man live as her delay on LES songs. I saw it in some pics, but the sound is pretty distinct (i use to own one).

ehx makes some gooooood pedals. i have the big muff and i looove it.

I thought I'd throw my two cents in on the Airline. I think its an original and not an Eastwood. The Eastwood has a black truss rod cover and the base of the controls are black. If you look at PJ's, there is no truss rod cover and the controls are white, which seem to be the same as the originals were. Links to pictures are here:

Her 1968 black Telecaster was usually in standard tuning. I’m only aware of it being used in drop D for certain songs during the Uh Huh Her and White Chalk tours. Don’t know the date of the Tele with the non-Tele-style bridge saddles. And one of them was John Parish’s, I believe, but then he gave it to her. She also used a white Tele as a backup onstage in 1991-92 but I haven’t come across it in subsequent years.

I’d be most interested in figuring out which amps she was using in the 90s. I’m a bit bummed she hasn’t used Marshalls since then; I’ve only seen her with Vox and Orange this century.

Hello all. Huge guitar nerd and massive PJ/JP fan, as well as her bandmates' other work.

Some of the unknowns pictured above are: Gretsch Jet Firebird (Polly pic), a couple of Hagstrom IIs (Josh Klinghofer, one white and one black). The Danelectro U2 JK is pictured with is a Baritone- the neck is way longer than a regular U2. Not sure about the hollowbody he's pictured with- the photo is too small/blurry and 404s when clicked on now. Looks like possibly a vintage Hofner though.

John Parish's black Telecaster is a '68 and likely all stock aside from the "Andy Summers" style bridge. It is still in JP's possession and was his first electric guitar, and is as it was when he got it plus a peace symbol sticker. This info is from Mr. Parish himself.

I recall somewhere a photo AWAMWB era of JP's pedalboard, with an Ibanez AD80 delay, maybe an MXR Distortion plus, and a couple of Joe Gore-built pedals, a Boring boost and another unidentified JG build. Also JP had switches for a signal path with and without a Copicat IC300 tape echo that can be clearly seen in a video shot during lockdown 2020 on Le Cargo. Also a great song! When I saw JP on tour for How Animals Move in 2003, he had an MXR Distortion Plus, a Diaz Tremodillo tremolo...and that was it. He might have had the Copicat back by the AC30. Sounded amazing. Adrian Utley also played guitar and the whole shebang still stands as probably the best show I've ever attended.

Anyway...I've been chasing some of these sounds and bits of kit for years and occasionally bugging JP and Joe Gore with questions they've graciously answered but any and all of them pull amazing sounds out of literally anything, and I've seen them use multiple bits to do the same parts enough to know it's mostly the player, not the gear.

The second is a Tascam MF-P01 4-track recorder (I have one)

Those witches’ hat knobs are stock, not a mod. I have the Broadkaster 7609 and it came with those same knobs. I haven’t seen a 7609 that doesn’t have them.

Not sure what in that article is updated, but I see it still has the same misinformation about the Gibson. She didn’t have that guitar during the making of Stories…, she used the Telecaster and the Broadkaster on that album.

The list also doesn’t include her Jaguar, which was used extensively on TBYML.

Earthquaker Devices Transmisser pedal. I've been noticing in the clips on YouTube that Polly uses it during "A Noiseless Noise." I wish I knew what the settings were for that particular song.

Could somebody please ask the guitar techs for Polly what are the settings for "A Noiseless Noise" when she is using EarthQuaker Devices Transmisser? What were the other effects she used for the European tour for IITOYD?

I saw the most recent pedalboard for IITOYD on World Cafe. Polly has a Boss Chromatic Tuner, a Chase Bliss Audio Warped Vinyl chorus/vibrato pedal, a Crowther Hot Cake distortion pedal, and an EarthQuaker Devices Transmisser reverb pedal. Just wanted to say it on here.
