Kevin plays a Memphis P-Bass through an Ampeg BA-115 with 100 watts and sings.
Will rips a Gibson ES 335 through a 100 watt, blackface mod Fender Twin, routed through an Avatar speaker cab. The pedals are ever changing, but include Voodoo Labs, Ibanez, digitech and custom made boutique pedals.

Hey guys – FGC is proud to announce the release of our latest studio album, Models and Metrics, and we’re excited for our Indiana CD release show this Friday!
Hi there Percival Potts first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.
Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people make sure you bookmark the link below so that in the event that we do close our myspace account you won't lose contact with us. I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
We have also built a pretty big music community which you are welcome to join if you want to meet new artists like yourself!
What's happening fellas. I hope all is going well in the midwest. Things are going great here. Just been enjoying the life with the wife. Still been playing just not out as much. I posted some fresh tracks a little while ago if you are interested. Be well
