I believe the pickups are custom wound Bill Lawrence 205s. But your right , he could make just about any rig sound great.

I think I glimpsed a line 6 reverb or delay multipedal on the floor at one of his concerts... Any confirmations?

And by the way, does anyone know what strat he uses?

Hi, guys... my first post here. Coco is one of my favorite musicians. Love his playing and vocals. I've only seen him play live one time, at the State Theatre in Falls Church, Virginia. Fantastic show, and I'll try to catch him whenever he's in the area.

Here's a link to the Carr Amplifier site http://www.carramps.com/carrframeset.html

I can't give "direct links" because of the frameset they use on the site, but if you go there and look around, there are some pics of Coco, and part of an interview he did with ToneQuest Report. He mentions using an 80 watt Carr Slant 6V and a Klon Centaur pedal.

Here's a link to the "Uncle Spot" site http://www.unclespot.com/USamps.html . Some pics of Coco and info on a Super Reverb style amp. When you get to the Coco page, scroll to the bottom for links to more pics.

I have some info around here somewhere on his guitars, but it would be "dated"... no way to know if he's changed.

I'll try to locate some more info and if I can, I'll post it here.

Thanks to the Admins that put this site together. It's great to have a Forum dedicated to Coco.
