Text from the video:
Dave Rimmer has spent years on stages around the world with Uriah Heep, and every piece of equipment in his touring setup has earned its place through experience rather than speculation. In this Gear Rundown, he opens the cases and walks through the Warwick Custom Shop basses that have accompanied him across countless tours, explaining how each instrument serves a different role while sharing the stories behind their development. From his left-handed Buzzard to a collection of custom Streamer models, this is a look at instruments shaped around the demands of life on the road rather than the showroom floor. Beyond the basses themselves, Dave takes viewers through the complete signal chain that delivers his unmistakable live sound, including his long-serving Ampeg tube amplifiers, pedalboard, stage setup, and the practical choices that keep everything performing night after night. Along the way, he reflects on decades of touring, working with the Warwick Custom Shop, and why reliability, consistency, and familiarity remain just as important as tone. It's an honest conversation about professional equipment from a musician who depends on it every time he walks on stage.
