Steve Howe's gear on Close to the Edge?

Guess it has been discussed before. I know he had a walnut ES 345, but what amps and pedals, and how was it set up? Anyone who knops?

There was a red Marshall that loomed large in his studio legend, as well as lots of Telecaster.

I think he was probably using a Fender Dual Showman with cabs with 2X15 inch speakers.  That was his stage amp at the time.  Fuzz was apparently a Maestro FZ-1S.  And I remember reading that the 12 string acoustic on "And You and I" was a Guild that belonged to Chris Squire.
