Belew as producer

In 1983, Belew produced the eponymous debut album for The Raisins. In 1985, he produced The Elvis Brothers's second album Adventure Time.
During the 1990s, he began making more of a name for himself as a producer, most notably producing two tracks on Jars of Clay's debut album in 1995 (including the crossover Christian hit "Flood"), but also producing The Irresponsibles 1999 album When Pigs Fly.
Belew has also produced and played on albums by three Mexican rock bands - Caifanes (1992's El silencio), Santa Sabina (1994's Símbolos) and Jaguares (2005's Cronicas de un Laberinto).
The album Stereotype Be, by Kevin Max (2001), included Belew as co-producer and musician.

Belew as instrument designer

Belew has also worked in instrument design, collaborating with Parker Guitars to help design his own Parker Fly signature guitar. This guitar is noticeably different from the standard design, containing advanced electronics such as a sustainer pickup and a Line 6 Variax guitar modelling system. It is also MIDI-capable, allowing it to be used with any synthesizer with MIDI connectivity.^[32]

Appearances in other media

Belew has appeared in a series of Japanese advertisements promoting the chemical and electronics company Daikin in which he emulated animal noises with his guitar and appeared as the conductor, conducting a symphony in which all the members were versions of himself playing guitar.^[33]
