Equipment
Webster currently uses Spector 'Alex Webster Signature Edition' (based on Euro 5XL basses), DR Strings, and EMG pickups. Before his signature model, he used Modulus Quantum and Spector Euro 5XL basses. He also used a white 1987 Fender Precision bass on the albums "Eaten Back to Life" and "Butchered At Birth", an Ibanez Sabre SB900 on the album "Tomb of the Mutilated", an Ibanez Soundgear SR1500 on "The Bleeding" and both a 1971 Precision Bass as well as a Spector NS Series 5-string bass on "Vile". In the past, he used an Ampeg SVT200T with an Ampeg 8x10 cabinet, then switched to the SVT-4PRO head. Recently, he signed an endorsement deal with SWR and currently uses 2 SWR SM-1500 and 2 SWR Megoliath 8x10 cabinets. Not much of an effects user, however on the album "Torture" he stated that he began using a Darkglass Microtubes B3K overdrive pedal and commented that it's the heaviest tone he has achieved yet. He also uses a Radial Bassbone and a Boss TU-2 Chromatic Tuner.

“Pop artists deal with the lowly trivia of possessions and equipment that the present generation is lugging along with it on its safari into the future.”
