  • Janick Gers

    Does anyone know where to find any decent pics of his Strats? I can't find anything on the Net and he won't stay still long enough on YouTube to get a look at it.

    I think those are the main two he plays.

      I find it interesting that he uses single coil pickups. I didnt even realize that he played in the band till I saw them live

        They're Duncan humbuckers - in the bridge and neck - lil' 59's or lil' JB's.

          No fair. I'm sure you had them in your wallet for easy access.

            I'm not a Janick hater, but you don't get the sense that he's added much to the band.

              GT, thanks so much for the photo's. Man, I couldn't find them and I have been looking for days. Damn search engine I guess. Janick is a showman in the "Band". But he is a very good guitarist when he's not tied into the Big Group. He also is a really great guy.

              Amazing he get's the tone out of the 'Lil JB's.

                Check out the Flight 666 soundtrack. Daves on the left, Adrian in the middle and Janick's to the right. You can really hear what they're all doing. Its kind of neat hearing the three of them playing together.

                  Yeah I love it when Jannick plays Adrian's solos, while Adrian plays Adrian's solos. That's awesome.

                  He is fun to watch on stage and seems to add a lot of life to the show.

                    Sorry, he may be a decent player but he has no place in Iron Maiden with Adrian back, especially playing some of Adrian's solos. Not cool IMO.

                      I agree, it's like going on your honeymoon with your wife and her ex-husband.

                      They should get Paul Di'Anno and Blaze Bayley as backup singers too.

                        Hey I kinda like Bruce's Tattooed Millionare..that's all Janick.

                        He does seem like a third wheel in Maiden, but I guess it thicken up the sound.

                            I think he's got pretty good tone and is a good third wheel - it thicken up the sound like a fat guy riding a trike.

                              Same thing on Rock in Rio...they're split into the 3 channels on that too. I found that very cool to hear each player's parts and tones individually.
