Myles Kennedy and Mark Tremonti from Alter Bridge show us around their rigs as used on 2007/8's Blackbird tour.

We were given the chance to take our film crew to the Southampton date of Alter Bridge's Blackbird UK tour to meet up with Mark and Myles, who graciously showed us around their guitars, effects and amps.

Make sure you visit Guitarist's YouTube channel that features enhanced and high definition versions of a huge selection of our gear, artists and technique videos.
