Looking for information on BOCs gear

[questionman]

I have been plowing through almost all of Blue Oyster Cults albums. They have some great tones on it. Their lead guitarist, Donald? or "Buck", has some of the best distortion tones next to Iron Maiden. Anyone out there know some information on what he was using, amps, pedals? I know he used an SG a lot, a guitar I despise, but thats all I really know. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a 72 100 Watt Marshall Head that belonged to B.O.C. back in the 70's.

Saw BOC back in '76, they were awesome.

Why don't you like SG's?

The neck ratio to body thickness has never felt right to me

If that makes sense.

marshalllone, have any pics of the head?
