This is why I respect Mick Thomson so much and hes one of the reasons Im going to learn how to play the guitar. Not only hes a beast of a guitar player, but also very humble and doesnt try to act as a high ego wannabe rockstar on interviews. Also hes a tech nerd that knows about gear and cares about it whether the quality, the specs and the price so it can allow us to have an amazing guitar at lower prices. Not like those guitar players that choose a guitar to be their signature without knowing about the purpose of its specs, and put a ridiculous price just to make money. Damn Mick is so underrated. Really nice interview Andertons! Maybe interview James Root (Jim Root) next time since hes also an amazing player like Mick, humble and cares about his gear too.

I have watched a ton of Mick interviews and surprised you got to speak with him without his mask or glasses. At times he can be disinterested and hides behind his mask with short answers. This was the most verbose I have heard him be... congrats to you.

[@aikumaDK]

I'm sure that when you've been doing this for as long as Slipknot has, the questions you get asked during press tours becomes samey. And for each time he gets a repetitive question, the amount of syllables in his answer gets shorter. I have an unfounded feeling that very few of those questions are about the gear, especially to this detail, because it can be very dry to non-gearheads, so it's not often he gets to geek about how his stuff. And obviously you have El Capitan sitting next to him, visibly over the moon from getting to do this interview, as opposed to your average reporter with a stoic set of questions.

[@gzo313]

TheOtherGenesis agreed with what you are saying. Kudos to Lee to focus on the gear side and get him to open up. The highlight of the interview for me me is when Lee asked Mick about being a guitar maker and how he lit up. Thanks for the comment.

[@littlewing90]

He sounds and talks exactly how I thought he would sound. Even sitting down Mick is so imposing and massive. Great guy and so down to earth!

[@dingdong6069]

"What I do is... I beat the shit out of my strings... just stretch the shit out of 'em. Then you lock them down and you've got your fine tuners". That is so refreshing to hear that from Mick. I've been playing Floyd Roses since the late 80's and it was a guy who roadied for GnR that told me that trick. Stretch and stretch and stretch again your new strings as you put them on. Then not only will you stay in tune (cos you do) you seldom break strings. Last string I broke was back in 1991. Not broken one single string since I started "stretching the shit out of 'em". But don't take my word for it. Listen to Mr Thomson.

[@DrumGuitarDude]

So by stretching the shit out them means tunning it very high and let it sit? And afterwards tune it to the preferred pitch?

[@dingdong6069]

@@DrumGuitarDude No. Tune to pitch and then stretch them like crazy so they will inevitably go flat. Then re-tune them back up to pitch. Repeat as many times as you've got the strength/patience for. But don't be gentle! Really yank them hard up off the fretboard around the highest fret/neck pickup area. It settles them in so once you have them in tune and you've locked the Floyd Rose they'll pretty much stay in tune. I was taught this by a guy who has often roadied for Slash and I haven't (touch wood) broken a string since the early 90's using this method. Not one single string.

[@ericsgarage9933]

I do the exact same thing. I figured it out through trial and error but man my Floyds stay in perfect tune no matter what and I haven’t broken a string in over a year. Hell I have strings on an Ibanez that haven’t been changed in a year or so out of laziness and it’s still in perfect tune.

[@mikek4288]

Love the way Mick has mellowed through the years

[@adam872]

What an awesome interview. Mick is such a gear nerd and I love that.

[@markblackwell9486]

Mick is such a great player and seems to be such a great guy. This is the best interview I've ever seen with him.

[@rockyvasquez25]

After 20 years, I get to see Mick’s Eyes . Amazing 👀

[@kristenellsworth9621]

Yeah, he has beautiful blue eyes.

[@kimasylvester]

Whooo. Mick without sunglasses.

[@tipodearriba]

By far this is the best Mick interview that I've seen in the lass 15-20 years, very humble and awesome chating guy!!! Grate job captain!!! Awesome interview!!!

[@Nic-ku8bm]

He is so damn chill omg

[@goktug__]

Didn’t expect this one 😂

[@MrGuitarmike2222]

This is what we expect for Artist rig run downs ! The passion of music run deep in our blood ! Gear, Guitars, Amps.. Thx for sharing dude ! Cap lets get those Amps on your show it will help the smaller guys get some exposure... Might be a hidden gem Micks using them ! Thx guys..

[@michaelsnydermusic]

MrGuitarmike2222 agreed. I’ve seen super boring rig rundowns because no one is engaged. No one gives a shit and sometimes the interviewer knows nothing about gear.

[@mflomein3952]

Micks voice has always been soothing even for a mountain of a man

[@jackwalsh8871]

I think this is only the second time I've ever seen mick without his mask on, his voice is so deep its absolutely terrifying especially when he's wearing that mask which still after two decades gives me chills. FTW SLIPKNOT

Could you imagine a death metal band in 94 with just Mick and Paul and a drum machine 🥰🥰🥰

[@KaijuAlert]

Great interview. Mick is a total guitar need and you can tell, his setup really matters to him.

[@mrs_death_metal_]

If I was a guitarist, I would want him to be my tech.

[@senspartech3533]

I can only imagine that Mick knows & likes Anderton's stuff. Might be the best interview Ive seen him do, though I havent seen em all either

[@boyblueNJ]

Amazing to hear Mick talk about everything that goes into his sound and writing. Hearing the music is only scratching the surface of understanding an artist like him, and Jim Root too!

[@chrisworland7754]

this was a joy to watch!

[@scottsteel4230]

Thomson and Root are BOTH F$&%ING BEASTS. Insanely great guitar work.
