Dominic Miller has been playing with Sting since the 90s. His main choice for most of that was a pair of Lone Stars, though he used a pair of Express 5:25s for a tour back in 2012 (part of the reason I bought one).

I saw them on that tour as well. Their tone was absolutely brutal, which words just can't describe. The only other time I've "felt" that tone is when I saw Metallica front row at the LA Forum on the Black tour. My ears rang for a month.^^^^
