Tim Henson Guitar Rig

Tim Henson's Guitar Rig has become well known in the progressive rock/metal community as Polyphia's Tim Henson has carved out a reputation as one of the most proficient and interesting guitarists in recent years. As a result he has a couple of signature models, all with a clever take on the tree of life inlay from the classic Steve Vai Jem - Tim Henson's signature guitars features a tree of death inlay, with thorns and roses (this same pattern is also on his signature strap).

The TOD10 signature is based heavily on the Ibanez AZ series and features a roasted maple neck and an american basswood body for a bright sound perfect for Polyphia's glassy cleans. A tremolo arm allows for wide or subtle pitch bends, and clever pickup selecting allows for single coil tones from the bridge pickup and neck pickup. The TOD70 offers a 7th string, for even more versatility and low notes. The TOD10N offers a unique guitar tone using nylon guitar strings like a classical guitar, but designed to work better in the context of a band.

Tim Henson is well-known for being a big fan of the Quad Cortex, which offers a near endless number of tones. Pairing the signature guitars with signature picks, both electric and nylon strings, a Tree Of Death strap and a Quad Cortex and you have the perfect Tim Henson rig!
