Anybody want to play "spot the pedals" with that pic of Keith?

That's obviously an RC20-XL on the table; my best guess for the other two pedals is that the turquoise pedal is a Boss PS-5 Super Shifter and the blue one is a MXR 6-band graphic equalizer.

Rounding out the collection is a Behringer Xenyx 802 mixer and his ever-present radio. 

And if that's a metal necklace he's holding, I think he's trying to degauss the pick-ups on that Steinberger.

Here's a shot of the gear Rowe was using a few years ago..

He's changed his set up again in the last year. I don't know what he's using now..
