Carl currently uses the Providence Stampede Overdrive SOD 2, Providence Chrono Delay, and the Providence Heat Blaster pedal, both on tour and in the studio. The Carl Verheyen pedalboard has Providence pedals prominently situated up front and center. He is considered a guitar legend, and a Carl Verheyen lesson on guitar will cost you a pretty penny - if you can get one. Carl Verheyen equipment is often asked about...such as, what pedals are on the Carl Verheyen rig ???

Carl Verheyen is an American guitarist, known for his work in Supertramp. Verheyen has authored many instructional books, including Improvising Without Scales, as well as Studio City, a collection of articles written for the magazine Guitar for the Practicing Musician from 1996-1999. In 1996 Carl won the LA Music Awards category of Best Guitarist. His first solo album was entitled No Borders; his follow up, Garage Sale, features his own vocals. 1998's Slang Justice, Verheyen's third release, was the first time he toured to support one of his records. His tour bandmates included bassist Cliff Hugo, drummers Chad Wackerman, Steve DiStanislao and Bernie Dresel. Slingshot, released in 1998, included drummer Gregg Bissonette and keyboard legend Jim Cox. Verheyen continued to play as a session player on other artists' records whenever in town, for acts such as the Bee Gees and Cher, as well as for movie soundtracks including The Crow and The Usual Suspects. In January 2000, he released the CD Atlas Overload, followed, in 2001,by a solo guitar composition entitled Solo Guitar Improvisations. Verheyen has also produced instructional DVDs, online lessons and a book/CD which profiles his "intervallic" style called Improvising Without Scales, as well as a book entitled Studio City, a compilation of all columns wrote by him for Guitar Magazine between 1996 and 1999. He currently writes a monthly column for Chitarre, an Italian guitar publication. In 2001, Verheyen released a collaborative work entitled Reel to Real with Karl Ratzer, an Austrian jazz guitarist. Recorded in two days, it consisted of extended "jams" and interactive musical exchanges between the two guitarists and the assembled rhythm section. Shortly afterwards, he released a collection of past songs entitled Six, featuring a cover of Lennon/McCartney's "Yes It Is". The band toured extensively behind this record, eventually playing in 14 countries over two years. In 2005 he recorded Rumor Mill, a DVD box set. His latest release was in 2007 with Take One Step, featuring an extended piece called "Bells of April". Throughout 2009 he toured the UK, giving guitar tutorial and instruction. In early 2011 Verheyen released the live DVD The Road Divides featuring previously unreleased material ("The Road Divides") extended jams and acoustic numbers ("Henry's Farm" and "Jerry's Breakdown"). The package included extensive interview footage with Verheyen and band members Dave Marotta (bass) and Walfredo Reyes, Jr (drums) and was directed by Nigel Dick.
