Packy Lundholm Rig Rundown - Theo Katzman 2023 Tour

[@derekdallas]

Packy. Dude. It only took a few seconds of hearing you at the Nashville show to realize this dude and his playing and tone were going to be super special. Was consistently blown away all night. Which is saying a lot considering how great everyone on that stage is. Don’t think I’ve been so in aw of what someone was doing with a guitar since first seeing Laur Joamets with Sturgill Simpson a while back. Thanks for doing this excellent rundown and please keep playing with Theo! 👏

[@PackyLundholm]

Oh man, that is incredible…thank you so much!!

[@mikerck]

I've been into drums since watching Whiplash a few weeks ago and I thought to myself, I wonder what Packy's doing. I remember him killing it on the drums way back in elementary school! I watched him play from then to high school. I'm glad he is still playing!

[@zeyadhamza8791]

That low-tuned Jazzmaster thing is just magic … reminds me of Madison Cunningham! So glad I got to hear this in context with the rest of the band last week!

[@PackyLundholm]

YES love Madison!!

[@grosebud4554]

Madison got the idea from Blake mills - they have the same producer so maybe Blake got it from his producer. Blake does so many strange things that sound so fucking good

[@zeyadhamza8791]

@@grosebud4554 cool thanks for the reminder to check out more of Blake’s stuff :)

[@emmitjohnstone1734]

She’s got a sick episode on Cory Wong’s podcast. Lotta insight and just a cool person

[@joe_del]

Packy, it was an absolute pleasure getting to see you perform twice on Theo's US tour (Boston and Chicago). You fit right in on Theo's stage: someone who is immensely talented and knows their shit but is clearly in it for the love of the game and to spread the joy of music with their playing. I've enjoyed your work on Woody's records before but I was truly blown away seeing you live. KILLER tone and great musicianship. Rock on dude!

[@PackyLundholm]

Yooo, thank you for the super kind words! The joy is very real - especially when I get to do it with such an incredible and loving crew as Theo's. Thanks for following along, more to come soon I hope!

[@Tedmaul99]

Found this after being blown away by Packy's playing at Theo's Dublin show. A masterclass in feel, restraint and then letting rip when required. This rundown is the perfect morning after viewing to see behind the curtain!

[@FragileCreatures]

That pre amp business is pretty fucking sweet!

[@TheGuacamoleXplosion]

You and Theo in Leuven were the greatest two-guitarist combo I’ve seen in a long while. Also, outstanding guitar work with May Erlewine!

[@PackyLundholm]

Thank ya!! I really love how our playing fits together.

[@ELRogerFalcon]

That is some sofisticated sht right there!

[@BenNorthrup]

I was at the Indy concert a few nights ago and I'm still looking for my face. It melted off. Walked away from that show so so inspired.

[@sventi555]

Saw you in Toronto and was BLOWN AWAY!! Thank you for spreading so much joy with your playing

[@FragileCreatures]

Blew me away in London last night. What a great player!

[@edera961]

Thanks, Packy! Love the tone of your guitars and your playing. Looking forward to the show in Amsterdam. I hope you'll be there!

[@amandawilkins2201]

I’m just here for the Packy! Miss ya bud.

[@PackyLundholm]

Miss you friend! Will be back home shortly 😎

[@leonardsrobert]

Oh my god super inspiring!! Thanks guys! Also Theo bringing the mic closer to his face when mimicking Daffy Duck's facial expressions is the funniest thing ever.

[@PackyLundholm]

😂 thanks so much!!

[@c.shanekey]

So appreciate this rig rundown! Saw you in Carrboro NC and that show was OFF THE CHAIN fun… thank you so much for sharing your gifts with us and I hope the rest of the tour is wonderful for you all

[@jordannolen2175]

Packy, we stood in front of you at the House of Blues in Dallas. You were rocking! Your tone was spot on for every song! Theo is lucky to have a guitarist like you complementing the songs so well. Keep it up!!!

[@PackyLundholm]

Ahh thanks so much!!

[@EJ_Crough]

that coodercaster is incredibly cool!

[@noambenomri]

Super inspiring! Looking forward to see you guys in Amsterdam

[@lehelfabian9903]

Hearing you play last Sunday in Amsterdam was huge.. I was amazed by the tone and the incredible playing.. BUT thanks for doing this rundown it's even more amazing to see how this rig works. Awsome man, I instantly became a huge fan, I love Theo's songs and you just helped make them even more special! Keep it up! 🤟

[@PackyLundholm]

Fabulous, thanks so much for listening/watching/digging! Hope to be back soon ❤️

[@daviddrilling2165]

Thank you for sharing! Such a cool setup.

[@PackyLundholm]

I’m really digging it…thanks for watching!

[@DefenderB0SS]

Just saw you with theo in paradiso! your guitar playing and sounds are awesome! i am really amazed by your creative pedalboard setup!

[@cowbellthunder]

Your tone at the Vic show was off the charts, and your parts were insanely tasty in the mix, leaving the perfect amount of space for Theo and the keys. And when it was shredding time, good god man, it was your night! Amazing to see how much preparation went into this load out, because during the show, it looked completely automatic.

[@PackyLundholm]

Thanks so much!! I’ve learned so much about space from this whole crew already.

[@kevongordon2675]

Seen you guys in Cleveland and as much as I like Theo and love Joe this man stole the show! Leads and rhythm you held it down man! Great work

[@gavmastatube]

An absolute shred machine!

[@FestivaGuy]

Packy is the best. Thanks for posting🎉🎉🎉

[@FestivaGuy]

This is amazing btw. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKSWmIJtpJJkZtk

[@passionplayer7]

That was great! Was actually really interested in the rig after seeing you guys in Houston, tone was fantastic 👌🏻 Thank you for sharing ✌🏻

[@jamesritchie4333]

This is awesome. What tuning is the guitar for You Could Be President in?

[@PackyLundholm]

Theo plays it in open D (DADF#AD), I’ve played my part in a couple different tunings but lately I’ve landed on D standard (DGCFAD). Thanks!

[@whosmymuse4941]

Wow that's an amazing collection! I love the guitar sounds on Theo's latest! My only electric is a late 80's '62 reissue, and I cherish it. Just feels right! Those pedals are really sweet! Thanks Theo and Packy you are an amazing guitarist👍

[@Ionic457]

You killed it in Toronto!

[@YannickROGER]

Thanks for the great content. You should do Theo's rundown now :) I hope to hear you play at the Paris show in october.

[@kashmirr144]

I saw you guys in philly, such a great show and you sounded fantastic. Those duel slide parts were killer! I've been wondering what that fuzz sound was in five watt ever since, so thanks for doing this!

[@PackyLundholm]

Excellent, thanks for watching! That’s my most asked-about tone BY FAR haha

[@tiagodungo]

Very cool stuff mate.

[@carterhudsonmusic]

Been hoping you guys would do this! Thank you!!

[@ichiron777]

THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!

[@FraserLGuitar]

This is great. PG missed out!

[@DannyWoodMusic]

DUDE. This is so freaking cool. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@PackyLundholm]

Thanks for watching!!

[@wong5150]

i was at the opening show in SLC and i have to say nick nailed FOH sound. that was the best mixed live show i have ever heard in my life! you guys were amazing!

[@PackyLundholm]

TURK IS THE MAN thank you!

[@petercarlen]

so cool!! seeing you guys in st paul this friday. so excited

[@PackyLundholm]

Nice, see ya soon!

[@dennisdonoghue7854]

Your set in Philly was so amazing. I loved how you combined precise, minimalist playing during the May Erlewine songs with aggressive, impressive solos to finish em up. Wished they let you rip more during the Katzman set, although you all killed it nevertheless.

[@Alden3]

dude OFC joe’s signal chain is bass-tuner-amp that’s hilarious. and has the best bass tone in the game. thank you for this video packy and for all your music this stuff is life changing!!!!

[@PackyLundholm]

Haha yup, my dude barely even needs knobs! Thank ya!!

[@Andrew-kg9yo]

I saw you guys in Seattle. That slide solo right before encore made me go home and look up who the guitar player was. Absolutely killer player!

[@PackyLundholm]

Wow…thanks so much!!

[@Junction335]

That is a very cool rig. Been looking for a good envelope filter and this fender pedal might just be the right thing

[@PackyLundholm]

Right on! It’s nice, especially for the price. The distortion circuit is interesting too, tho I don’t use it in this context.

[@Verfin_Dima]

Packy Lunn plays drums in Jimkata

[@PackyLundholm]

We connected online recently. It’s real weird.

[@AqueousMantra]

@@PackyLundholm take those guys on tour. They're good people. A hidden gem

[@jacobmcguffie]

So good! Can I ask what guage chromes? Coincidentally, I have a set of flats on the way in the mail to set up my jazzmaster low tuned. Went with 13s thomastiks

[@PackyLundholm]

Nice! They’re 12s, but I might try 13s eventually.

[@BobSperber]

Ogling over the Fano>Rivoltas. Good for Eastman making retro cool affordable. Opinion on Reverend?

[@PackyLundholm]

Reverends look and sound cool, but they’ve always felt kinda stiff to me. I know a couple guys who love theirs tho so maybe it’s a personal taste thing.

[@music_works]

Hi packy! Amazing sounds and playing. I was wondering if you simply connected a 5pin midi to 1/4" trs cable from the Preamp to the MWAVE in order to connect the two, or if their adapter is needed? Thank you!

[@PackyLundholm]

@@music_works hey, thanks! I made a MIDI>TRS cable from what I had laying around…I can’t find the exact pinout now but I believe the mvave works with type A TRS>MIDI cables. But many of the ones available are 1/8” so you’d need an 1/8 to 1/4 adapter as well.

[@music_works]

@@PackyLundholm thank you so much! I *just* got a CB Preamp the day they discontinued 'em and I'm planning to try it out with the MWAVE. Appreciate your explanation! Thanks kindly

[@_JOE-DAN]

Thank God mistah cheeks was there to film this. No one else could have filled this video with this level of quality.

[@PackyLundholm]

He is, quite simply, the Cheeks for the job

[@crosbycofod5052]

Would you say the preamp mkii is worth the investment? I have a fuzz and a distortion pedal it seems it could replace and find more unique tones when recording guitar parts.

[@PackyLundholm]

Sorry for the slow reply - it could very likely replace those pedals for you, and do a lot more. The only issue with the fuzz circuit is a couple of the fuzz controls are trim pots inside the unit, so you can’t really tweak those on the fly. Otherwise I’m still loving it.

Gated fuzz, ha!

[@russellzauner]

Pedals that have pedals are the best; if your pedal doesn't have another pedal then add a pedal. *facts*

[@PackyLundholm]

Yo dawg I heard you like pedals

Polenta.

Tone is not in the fingers. That's technique.

Katzman? Sounds super sus.
