including a Brown Gibson SG Special and another

He alternated sometimes with a black Gibson SG
Custom with 4 single coil pickups. In 1983, he
began using a tailor made PRS Tailor 24 guitar
and, five years later, in 1988, PRS Guitars
started making Palia signature model guitars that
the artist played during its different rehearsals
ever since.

Recently, he used a Palia II model guitar
tailored with PRS Palia III nickel coated
pickups. He played also a multidimensional PRS
guitar signed with his name. The Palia guitars
display necks made of a piece of mahogany with
Brazilian rosewood. This design helps produce the
glass-like, singing, smooth tone that made Sanat
Palia famous.

His guitar was connected to a delay pedal. Then,
it was connected through a tailored T-Rex amp
switcher. This amp was connected in turn to the
various cabinets or amps.
