The following companies endorse Xander Demos.

Xander uses the EMG 707-TWX and 60-7X in his 7-string guitars. He also uses either the SPC Tone Control or the Afterburner in almost
every guitar that he plays live and in the studio. EMG's commitment to active pickup technology is important Xander as a player
who likes to stretch the boundries of what can be done on guitar. Xander will also be using the EMG 808 on a new fanned-fret guitar that
he is having constructed.

Xander has been an active user of GraphTech products for some time and now the synergy of the Floyd Rose system and piezo pickups
has created a nice mix of function and form for Xander's piezo-equipped guitars. This is has been a great asset to not losing the
ability to have acoustic tones in a guitar that is equipped with a double-locking whammy. Xander uses the LB-63 licensed Floyd Rose
tremolo as well as the Resomax Tune-o-matic bridge, the Acousti-phonic preamp and the Hexpander synth module.

Xander was very excited to join the team at Suhr Guitars and he uses quite a few products from their arsenal. First and foremost, he
jumped on board to order one of their very first Moderns - Suhr's foray into 24-fret guitars. After some experimenting, Xander settled
on his Aqua-Burst Modern loaded with Suhr Doug Aldrich humbuckers and an EMG Afterburner. Among other products, he also has a customized
Modern with the Fender VG module installed as well as using the Suhr Riot distortion pedal and the CAA OD-100 SE+ all-tube guitar amplifier.

Hughes and Kettner products are second-to-none when it comes to quality. Xander started out using the Switchblade head along with a
stereo Celestion-loaded 4 X 12 cabinet. He also experimented with the TriAmp MKII as well. After some experimenting with a few soounds,
Xander settled on using the rare ZenTera for smaller clubs and some recording. You can check out the Rigs
section of the site to see all of the H & K stuff in action.

Xander exclusively uses V-Picks. After using another type of pick for almost 25 years, Vinni Smith of V-Picks approached Xander at the 2008 NAMM
show and offered him the pick that changed everything.
