Adam Jones Rig Setup (Help Needed)

Hey guys,

Just wondering if I could get someone who is familiar with Adam Jones' work and setup to help me out a little.... if you aren't already tired of ppl asking for Adam Jones setup stuff... :D

I'm looking to see if someone can take an image I've made of what I "believe" to be Adam's setup (given the image below and from what I've gathered in some other places) and basically draw colored lines from everything to show how he indeed hooks up his rig.

I'm then going to take that info and create a very clean, professional looking image of how he hooks his stuff up via Photoshop.

I've studied images and read multiple forums about what he pretty much uses.... and this is the image I'm going off of.

I know he has a "newer" setup with the Chopper, Virus, Synths and stuff.... but I would like to stick with what's in the image above and go from there if possible.

If I left anything out or something needs added/removed just let me know and I'll update that image for you.

So, here's the image I've basically setup so far.... it's pretty rough because I spaced it out for someone (hopefully someone out there can accomplish this) to draw colored lines for the different loops to everything... to basically diagram how his rig (as I know it from the above picture) is hooked up....

You can be as sloppy as you want as I'm going to take it into Photoshop afterwards and make a nice, clean, well-diagrammed image.

I'm looking to create something that could be spread around to show how he indeed hooks everything up... as it's somewhat hard to find (for me at least.)

If anyone could (would) help with this I would be very grateful.
If not, no big deal and have a good one.

Not trying to be rude, but why would you want to copy his entire rig exactly?

Tool cover band?

Nope. No cover band for me... haha

I just like to know how people arrange their rigs and then try to decipher why they did it that way vs. another way vs. another way.... etc.
Just inquisitive I guess.

I've seen a few ppl attempt to tackle it... like this person...

I like seeing how different people tackle setups to achieve the sounds they create...

For reference, this is one someone made for Morello's setup(s):

Or someone's take on Jimmy Page's...

Just looking to create something similar with regards to Adam is all, as I don't see one anywhere...
 
I took my son to a Tool show a few years ago in St Paul. I also had a friend work the stage all day, he got to see all the player's rigs. Coheed and Cambria and Tool. He did say that Adam's pedalboard was very simple...only 4-5 pedals and a wah..not sure which pedals though.

He's the guitar player from Boston.

There was no one in Boston by that name. My friend said he played in a band named Stool. I've never heard of them?

Ahhh yeah, now I remember him. Wasn't their first album called Sample?

Not the band, the city. He's from Boston. South side.
 
Adam Jones is Carmine Appice's real name.

Anyway, to the OP, check up any and all of username "jonl"s posts. Cat's got it down in spades.

Peace :thumbsup:
