Here you go:
Jorma - Gibson ES-345 stereo guitar with a Varitone switch. Amps were Fender Twins ... one set for the neck pickup and the other set for the bridge. The bridge pickup was through a Crybaby Wah-wah pedal and the neck pickup was through an Ampeg Scrambler.
Jack - Up to Baxter's: Fender Jazz Bass (customized with a third pickup) through a Fender Showman amp. In addition he also played through a Versatone 35 watt amp cranked all the way up to get the growling distorted sound.
Later Jack switched to a Guild Starfire bass. That bass was stolen while in Ohio. Jack purchased two more, one of which is now in the R&R Hall of Fame.
Paul - Various Rickenbacker 12-string guitars with Fender Bandmaster amps (or possibly Vibrolux amps).
