My Band's Gears

This post is about the gears each of my band members uses now or have used before (it will be crossed out). This includes everything; drums, bass and guitars. This is not a review of equipments. Just sharing our equipments. Nothing special though.
This is just a random idea which was actually suggested by the drummer of my band. 
Ok.. here we go! All the names below are just nicknames.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
KJ, Guitarist 
Guitars: 
LTD Viper-50
LTD F-250
Epiphone Les Paul Std Plus Top
Fender '97 California Strat with scalloped neck.
(I think this scalloped neck is actually customised since california strat originally comes with the normal type.)



Strings used: DR strings (10-48)


Effects:
Boss GT-10
Boss DS-1 (Beez modded)
Modtone Vintage Wah
Korg Pandora PX5D
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Loki, Guitarist (me)
Guitars:
Squier Standard Strat
Fernandes FGZ-400 (with Tesla VR-extreme and Plasma-RS2)
(This Fernandes is long discontinued. It would be impossible to find it on the current catalogs)


Strings used: GHS coated (10-52)


Effects:
Vox V847 Wah
Behringer PB100
Biyang Metal-End King
Modtone Extreme Metal 
Ibanez TS-7
Danelectro Milkshake Chorus
Zoom G2.1u
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jack, Bassist
Bass:
Fernandes FRB-45 (1995 model. Like many old Fernandes, it is out of production. Discontinued)


Strings used: D'addario (0.045-0.100)


Effect: 
Boss ME-20B
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And last but not least...


Osiris, Drummer
Drumsticks:
AHEAD Hybrid Series 5AB (studio)
AHEAD JJ-1 Speed Metal
(previously Joey Jordison's signature drumsticks. Ever since he had switched to Pro-Mark, his signature was replaced with 'Speed Metal'. Has the dimension of a 7A but slightly heavier. 3g that is.)


You might not have notice this. But Ahead is the only drumstick producers who has listed the weights of their drumsticks. And yes.. they are not wooden. I'm sure some of you will know this.

@GZNG.
I got mine 2nd hand.. or 3rd? The first owner bought it from Japan in 2003. So.. this guitar is rather old. The FRB and FGZ are the old model codes of Fernandes.

@jack
I found your bass as well.. 2003 was its last year of production. too bad. =.=
