[@kaineub]

Definitely need to do the rig rundown for bassists too. Eddie makes his own basses and effect pedals so I wonder if he helped Teppei out with his new guitar. Eddie's tone makes me want to build my own Grabber style bass with Lollar pickups.

[@olliemac32]

About to start watching this… No Eddie?!? AGAIN!!??? So weak.

[@johnpedrosilva]

True they did the same with Rise Against always skipping the bass

[@cactus-mcjacktus]

it’s not that they skip the bassist ( maybe they do ) but if an artist doesn’t want to do a rig rundown, they’re not forced to. Also time constraints, since most of these are done before the band plays. That said, i would’ve loved to gave seen Eddie’s rig

[@Jllyrol311]

I feel Rig Rundowns feature the bassist about a third of the time. They aren’t being overlooked on purpose. It’s up to the individual musician if they want to be featured. (I imagine the bigger the band/artist, the more PG would like to have everyone featured if they are interested in doing it.)

[@AJbassist]

Most basses p, j or Gibson style in this case into ampeg svt stack but will total agree I wanna see it …

[@ChadVanHalen5150]

I've been playing with modellers for years and him splitting his pickups on a stereo cable and controlling what pickup is on and how much it is on might be the most mindblowing thing I've never thought of... That's so rad

[@vwharman]

That’s such a cool twist on the digital amp world-what a rad set-up, and without needing midi built into the guitar…so sick

[@cactus-mcjacktus]

Steve Von Till from Neurosis does a similar thing with his Warmoth partscasters, using a stereo cable and making his pickup selection in a Bob Bradshaw system

[@clArne]

I love Dustin and his Rig and everything, but the usage of modelling that blew my mind completely is by Stevic of Twelve foot ninja! There are videos where he describes how he uses the Helix with his signature Variax! It's incredible!

[@vwharman]

@@clArne sweet, I’m going looking for that-cheers!

[@clArne]

[@JoePreacherLong]

The stereo cable and Helix control over the pickup output is an incredibly cool idea. When the signature came out I did not understand the stereo out and switch thing, I totally get it now. Love these dudes!

[@heythere6983]

Their aol sessions are some of the best sounding live performances Iv ever heard . Very cool songs

[@DwayneCreates]

Dustin is the reason that I originally bought a Line 6 POD HD500x. And then when TBEITBN was released and saw the Helix being used live, I went and bought one. I have since switched to the Quad Cortex, but the Helix is still great despite being almost 7 years old now. I still have my HD500x in the cupboard and it still works and sounds great.

[@HARwinsOUTagain]

What do you think of the Quad Cortex? I like the format of it, seems like it would be a bit more user friendly than the Fractal Axe FX. I have the Fractal now but the interface is just too much menu diving for my liking.

[@jasonlaws3181]

thrice has been my favorite band since 2001. incredibly talented group, i cant stress that enough

[@AhnSeoulo]

20 years and they’ve kept the same lineup the whole time. And that’s not including the time they’ve known each other as kids. It’s pretty special.

[@ze_german_kraut_alfda]

They are just so beautiful and nice people to listen to, thrice is something whole different in the 'nowadays' music industry♥️

[@TheGearChat]

Got to see them live a little over a week ago and their tone is soooo good live. I strive to emulate it.

[@gafarbello107]

Big facts, their tone is incredible live

[@christophersmart8067]

Sames

[@VitaEx]

One of my favorite band sounds so awesome every time. I fell in love with them by finding vheissu and that opened me up to their to their stuff. It’s one of those rare perfect albums but they have many great ones !!

[@jorgevanpeeters9008]

Proud to have this fantastic EBMM Stingray 😎 Teppei you just GREAT!! Cheers & greez from Swiss! Love your music!

[@TVoltG]

This was a great rig rundown. I sold all my "Named" guitars a while back after building my first guitar. It's addicting. I now have 9 guitars I built to my taste. With 3 more in production. I also have switched to Helix 2 years now as my preamps into my tube heads as a mono wet/dry into cabs with all the effects as well.

[@bigtakeshi]

Dustin's so interesting. Gibson to Telecaster modded with Line 6, to Nash Tele, now to Ernie Ball Music man.

[@frantasma]

Nice! What about the bass?? Love the sound of the bass on their latest album! I think Eddie uses a Gibson Grabber II with an Ampeg B15 and a Marshall JMP MK-1 Super Bass??

[@kaineub]

His main bass (the brown one) he made from a Grabber that got damaged in shipping. He made another one (the blonde) with Lollar precision 90 pickups. Grabber pickups are impossible to find, no one knows how to make them, and Gibson won't share how to make them or make them available for purchase. Eddie said the Lollars are the closest he's found but they're a bit hotter. Not sure what he's running for pedals or amps right now. Him and Riley killed it on the new album though. Great drumming and bass throughout. Hoping they continue to deliver on Horizons/West and we get that followup sooner rather than later.

[@midwest_muse]

I NEEEED these patches Dustin! Do it!

[@intoflatlines]

Agreed!

[@JustinIm27]

my first concert was thrice in west hollywood. my best friend in 5th grade was cousins with the lead singer dustin. it was dope af

[@kylerussell786]

It bothers me to no end that they rarely do the bassists rigs as well.

[@officialmetalwill]

To PG's credit there are a lot of bassists who are just playing the root notes of the chord progression to fill the tonal spectrum and keep rhythm; however, to your credit, there are so many bassists' who play a significant role in the band's overall sound (often adding more to the dynamics of the band than the guitar players do) and they definitely need recognition.

[@johnnyhickey1312]

To add to that, it’s also called premier guitar, not premier bass …

[@MetalZoned]

Perry does a great job with these rundowns, he asks really good questions

[@ZaryaMain]

I want that damn Kensrue Stingray so bad.

[@JC-ei3ci]

So for Horizons/East, his guitar was just directly into the interface? The guitars sound so good and crisp!

[@MitchLamm93]

we need bass interviews!!!

[@TheBeltwayBandits]

Love what your doing!!! You inspire me!!!

[@ZaryaMain]

You can get rid of the delay if you turn on "preset spillover" but it cuts your available DSP in half.

[@TrevorPrinceMusic]

I use the line 6 and the PC set up. I love it. Sometimes I don't even bring my PC with me

[@BrandonWaters90]

I just stumbled upon this video, so thank you Premier Guitar (and Dustin/Teppei) for the awesome video! I had no idea Thrice did a new Rig Rundown vid. Hopefully next time we can get Eddie's rig rundown. Off topic, but I hope guitar-driven music makes a comeback (in the mainstream); there's no better feeling than plugging into a hot rig, and playin' in front of a crowd.

[@officialmetalwill]

6:51 I've had an HX FX for 6 months now and still can't figure out how to properly program it. I don't know if I'm too stupid or too lazy to figure out all the subtle capabilities.

[@izzydoneyet5916]

I’ve had one for close to a year and I’ve probably figured out 15% of its capabilities, keep trying and watch a ton of videos it helped me so much

[@peterellwood2103]

That stereo cable to get different pickups is such a good idea. Amazing.

[@soaringuitarist]

Perfecttttt seeing them in Tempe tonight!

[@jnh73]

Perry is so confused (at 6:45) that there's only a Helix Floor and powered cabs for Dustin's setup. 🙃

[@GranTigerGaming]

Teppei tapping into his roots, like a samurai building his own sword lol.

[@paulfitz6614]

Stereo out is a game changer. I wish the guys had actually demoed some sounds though.

[@pistolqueen89]

Why would anyone dislike this??? Must be insane and not truly appreciate a badass band like Thrice!

[@xxxfallenseraphxx]

Really informative rig rundown, only thing I wish was that we got a bass rundown as well! Perry killing it as always, knowledgeable, enthusiastic and professional! Well done!

[@LIKWID]

At 17:30 what happens to Perry? lmao, dude looks like he straight up zones out

[@5urg3x]

Even if you don't use the bar, having it there does very subtly change the resonance of the guitar. It's kind of like a chambered effect, but not exactly. You can always just block it off if you don't use it anyway.

[@DannyCruzCreations]

Interesting what he mentions about tuners around the 14:15 mark. Back in the day, as a drummer, I was the band leader and I would ask my bandmates to all tune to the same tuner.

[@heythere6983]

I was hoping to hear that guitar he made . Iv thought about making my own many times . Cnc routers aren’t that expensive I just didn’t quite know how to work the software to make an sg . But for cheap you can buy the necessary machines and make a fleet of guitars for way cheaper than buying multiple guitars from name brands.

[@0026sd]

Anyone know if there's a full version of the opening performance?

[@werdna3891]

The word Mustang is never used to describe that guitar. Is it just me that sees the similarities? Even the metal plate where the knob sits, that's iconic to the Mustang. If the pickups were slightly angled, it would be identical. Close at least...

[@DatMetalBoi75]

Never really listened to them, but they have exquisite taste in gear

[@elijahcambry3319]

go listen to “The Alchemy Index” from 2007, then check out the new record “Horizons/East”. their two masterpieces.

[@shuno_music]

Please do a rig rundown of DIIV’s Andrew Bailey!! His shoegazy/grungy distortion tones are so thick and powerful but yet, so soothing and rich.

[@nathaniellarson8]

Classic Teppei: "So I started looking at pickups"... builds own guitar.

[@serhat.sevinc]

Anyone know what song they play at the beginning.

[@premierguitar]

[@doggerspaniel]

[@devonlindsay5784]

Nothing will ever beat a class A tubed amp. I don't care how good the technology is. Seems like Thrice are just using them out of ease for set-up when touring as everything is pre-set.

Shouldn't Rig Rundowngs include the bass rig? Who is with me?

[@bobisadrummer]

I wish there were more color options for Dustin's signature. The Tabaco Burst isn't terrible, but the TV Yellow or w/e it is, is bleh, specially for a $3k guitar. A Grey would be nice.

"I have minimal woodworking skills." *makes wooden pickup rings and perfectly sanded bevels in the body Ok we're done here.

[@officialmetalwill]

Those are pretty basic skills, just need the proper tools. Sanding is all about patience and elbow grease. Making the pickup rings would be simple - route out the center on a larger piece of wood, then cut out the outside dimensions and sand to size/smoothness if needed.

I spoke to Dustin once. He asked me what my plans were. I responded, “At 4 in the morning, you know where I’ll be.” I was then arrested for running red lights, asleep at the wheel. I yelled at my car, “I just want to BRAKE you down so badly.”

are these guys still Christians?

[@DrShrimpPuertoRicoMD]

Dustin has said he’s went through a confusing, to me, “deconstructing” thing. So I don’t think so. I don’t know about the other guys.

[@JoePreacherLong]

I think it was only Dustin who ever really declared himself a Christian. His podcast content and his comments there suggest he’s more agnostic at this point and trying to find things that resonate as truth in all views. Very postmodern.

[@zmr8882]

I stopped watching at 6:09. "No more tube amps".
