Tolkki plays ESP Guitars. He's currently playing an ENGL head with a Marshall Cab. As for effects, he uses the T.C. Electronics G-Force. Not sure about pickups. This is his current set up. There's also other threads on the forum where Tolkki answered questions about his gear himself.

Has Tolkki always used ESP guitars? I could have sworn he used a different company before ESP? (I'm really behind with this kind of stuff...

)
I used to post on Timo Tolkki forum! Say hello if you remember me!

He could have been using other brands prior to 'Dreamspace' (the first album where ESP is mentioned in the booklet), for instance Kramer (mentioned in the booklet of 'Twilight Time'). If I remember right, Tolkki told in an old interview that he used a cheap, low- quality guitar during the recordings of 'Fright Night'.
