Daniel Johns
His electric guitars
Daniel has used a lot of different stuff since the beginning of silverchair. First of all, for the recording of Frogstomp, he used both Gibson Les Paul and Gibson Explorer for double-tracking; he sometimes played on a Gibson Explorer for concerts.
During their firsts tours after Frogstomp, Daniel discovered Page Hamilton's guitars - Helmet's guitarist, one of his fave band: Paul Reed Smith Guitars. He owns a red/orange one (in standard tuning most of the time) and several green ones (one was owned Page Hamilton who traded it in at Paul Reed Smith and Daniel bought one from there, and they offered him that one; it's the one he uses in the video for Israel's son), a black one, a silvery one (all in Drop-D) on which he put stickers; they seem to be Mc Carthy models. His strings are D'Addario 11-52 and his picks are white triangular Tortex (2 millimeters).

For the recording of Freak Show, he mainly used his Paul Reed Smith guitars and a Gibson SG. On the video Out Takes and Miss Takes, he plays on a lot of guitars, especially Fender...
