With few exceptions, Jack displayed a continued partiality towards amps and pedals from the 1960s.<ref name="RSB" /> Jack used a number of effects to create his sound, such as a DigiTech Whammy IV to reach pitches that would be otherwise impossible with a regular guitar.<ref name="NYT">Ratliff, Ben (2003).
