• The Jesus Lizard [2025]

  Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/the-jesus-lizard-2025Subscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeWhen the Jesus Lizard released their seventh studio record, Rack, last September, it ended a 26-year hiatus between recordings, and lovers of raucous, steely rock music around the world rejoiced. As guitarist Duane Denison told PG’s Nick Millevoi in our feature story, the key to the album’s vitality—and reviving the band’s brutal sound—was simple: “Practice loud.” Ahead of a hotly anticipated U.K. tour celebrating the record, the band gathered at SIR’s rehearsal space in Nashville to do exactly that. PG’s Chris Kies stopped by to see what Denison and bassist David Wm. Sims were stuffing into their suitcases for the trip across the pond.Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/the-jesus-lizard-2025Subscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeWin Guitar Gear: https://bit.ly/GiveawaysPGDon't Miss a Rundown: http://bit.ly/RIgRundownENLMerch & Magazines: https://shop.premierguitar.comPG's Facebook: https://facebook.com/premierguitarPG's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/premierguitar/PG's Twitter: https://twitter.com/premierguitarPG's Threads: https://threads.net/@premierguitarPG's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@premierguitar0:15 - Duane Denison Playing Intro1:08 - Celebrating Band's Longevity & New Album Rack2:18 - Duane Denison's Powers Electric Type A5:04 - Why Duane Denison Practices Really Loud6:43 - What Duane Denison Needs From His Guitar Tone7:44 - The Jesus Lizard Tunings8:42 - Duane Denison's Core Tone (Hide and Seek)10:02 - Duane Denison's Chorus Tone11:42 - Duane Denison's Delay & Unison Notes12:53 - Duane Denison's "Oddball" Sound13:44 - How Duane Denison Uses Space in His Guitar Playing16:55 - Duane Denison's Stringjoy Strings & Picks18:37 - How Duane Denison Warms Up & Stays Limber19:44 - Duane Denison's Victory VS100 Super Sheriff21:25 - Duane Denison's Line 6 Helix Floor23:25 - Duane Denison's Soloing Technique ("Grind")25:35 - What Still Excites Duane Denison About Guitar?27:03 - "Puss" Live27:42 - John Bohlinger & XPND Pedalboard28:33 - David Wm.

• MJ Lenderman & the Wind

  Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/mj-lendermanSubscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeThe fast-rising indie-rock outfit shows how they bring their varied 4-piece string section to life on their recent tour.Last year’s Manning Fireworks was a breakout moment for Asheville, North Carolina’s MJ Lenderman, which is both the name of the band and the actual name of singer and guitarist Jake Lenderman, who also plays in the band Wednesday. The record topped plenty of year-end lists and drew favorable comparisons to the likes of Neil Young, Dinosaur Jr., and other stars of the pre- and post-’90s indie-rock boom.On tour behind the record, the band stopped in at Birmingham, Alabama, joint Saturn on February 1. PG’s Chris Kies met up with Lenderman, guitarist Jon Samuels, pedal-steel player Xandy Chelmis, and bassist Landon George before the show to get the dirt on their dirt.Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/mj-lendermanSubscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeWin Guitar Gear: https://bit.ly/GiveawaysPGDon't Miss a Rundown: http://bit.ly/RIgRundownENLMerch & Magazines: https://shop.premierguitar.comPG's Facebook: https://facebook.com/premierguitarPG's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/premierguitar/PG's Twitter: https://twitter.com/premierguitarPG's Threads: https://threads.net/@premierguitarPG's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@premierguitar0:00 - XPND Pedalboard0:15 - MJ Lenderman & the Wind “Joker Lips”1:12 - Chris Kies Intro1:36 - MJ Lenderman’s 1979 Gibson The “SG”3:10 - MJ Lenderman’s Tunings & Capo Usage4:26 - MJ Lenderman on Working with Producer Alex Farrar 5:35 - MJ Lenderman on Recording Manning Fireworks6:50 - MJ Lenderman’s 1979 Gibson The “SG” Tone7:23 - MJ Lenderman’s Squier J Mascis Signature Jazzmaster8:05 - MJ Lenderman’s “You’re Every Girl to Me” Tuning9:17 - MJ Lenderman Performing with Dinosaur Jr10:34 - MJ Lenderman’s Fender American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Deluxe12:18 - MJ Lenderman’s 2008 Fender Jazzmaster13:47 - MJ Lenderman’s Hiwatt Custom 5016:30 - MJ Lenderman’s Pedalboard19:57 - MJ Lenderman on Playing Songs Live21:26 - MJ Lenderman on Michael Jordan’s “Hangover Game”22:33 - MJ Lenderman on Manning Fireworks Popularity & Solo Success23:41 - Jon Samuels’ Fender Player Telecaster26:59 - Jon Samuels’ Fender Hot Rod DeVille27:33 - Jon Samuels’ Pedalboard33:45 - John Bohlinger & XPND Pedalboard34:34 - Xandy Chelmis’ 10-string ZB Custom Pedal-Steel Guitar38:36 - Xandy Chelmis’ Pedal-Steel Tuning & Slide Bar41:44 - Xandy Chelmis’ Fender ’65 Twin Custom 1542:40 - Xandy Chelmis’ Goodrich H-12044:43 - Xandy Chelmis’ Guyatone SD2 Sustainer46:39 - Landon George’s 2006 Fender Mike Dirnt Precision Bass49:46 - Landon George’s Flatwound Bass Strings50:35 - Landon George’s Sunn Beta Bass Amp & Ampeg SVT 8x1052:19 - Landon George’s Pedalboard57:10 - D’Addario Strings[Brought to you by D’Addario: https://ddar.io/wykyk-rr & D'Addario XPND: https://ddari.io/xpnd.rr]© Copyright Gearhead Communications LLC, 2025#guitar #rigrundown #guitarist #guitarplayer #guitargear #mjlenderman #bass #bassplayer

• Dweezil Zappa [2025]

  Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/dweezil-zappa-2025Subscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeThe shredder and son of legendary artist Frank Zappa gives a tour of his up-to-date gear, including a complex stereo switching system, four racks of pedals, and some of his father’s favorite guitars.Dweezil Zappa was always going to end up being an incredible guitarist. His dad, Frank Zappa, is celebrated as one of the most talented and creative guitarists in history, and by age 12, Dweezil was recording music produced by Eddie Van Halen. (Little surprise that he’s covering Van Halen’s 1981 stunner “Push Comes to Shove” lately.) He’s been a bona fide guitar star ever since, releasing seven original solo records, six tribute records, two LPs with his brother Ahmet Zappa, and guesting on recordings across the music universe.Ahead of his gig at Memphis’ Minglewood Hall on his 2024 Rox(postroph)y tour, which celebrated the 50th anniversary of Frank Zappa’s Apostrophe (') and Roxy & Elsewhere records, Dweezil gave PG’s John Bohlinger a boot-to-bonnet look at his current road setup. There’s a lot of ground to cover between his and his father’s catalogues, and Dweezil loves the challenge, which he meets with a mix of his own gear and some special vintage assists courtesy of his dad.

• Jared Dines & Eric Palmer (Oni Band)

  Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/oniSubscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeOni’s guitar duo cover 16 strings between them with a pair of Neural Quad Cortexes and some choice patches. Jared Dines had been writing for Canadian metalcore outfit Oni—fronted by Jake Oni—for a few years before Jake invited Dines to join him onstage. Dines had just two days to learn the entire set before rehearsals began. But Eric Palmer can one-up him. He was teching for the band when Jake conscripted him—with just one day to pick up the set before a performance. Palmer rose to the occasion, and he and Dines have formed Oni’s two-guitar tornado for the past year. Ahead of their gig at Nashville’s Brooklyn Bowl in December, Dines and Palmer walked PG’s Chris Kies through their spartan, one-guitar rigs—no backups, no mercy.Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/oniSubscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeWin Guitar Gear: https://bit.ly/GiveawaysPG Don't Miss a Rundown: http://bit.ly/RIgRundownENLMerch & Magazines: https://shop.premierguitar.comPG's Facebook: https://facebook.com/premierguitarPG's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/premierguitar/PG's Twitter: https://twitter.com/premierguitarPG's Threads: https://threads.net/@premierguitarPG's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@premierguitar[Brought to you by D’Addario: https://ddar.io/wykyk-rr]0:00 - Joe Glaser & D'Addario0:15 - Jared Dines & Eric Palmer Playing Intro1:18 - Chris Kies Intro1:46 - How Jared & Eric Joined Oni4:19 - Using 8-String Guitars in Oni4:49 - Eric Palmer's Jackson Concept MDK8 HT8 MS Modern Dinky5:48 - Jared Dines' Ernie Ball Music Man Majesty 87:03 - Jared Dines' Guitar World Cover & Martin Tour9:45 - Rig Rundown & D'Addario10:17 - Oni Using Neural DSP Quad Cortex13:30 - Simplifying & Enjoying Tours with Guitar Modelers16:55 - What Still Excites Jared Dines About Guitar?19:37 - 2025 Plans for Oni20:30 - Jared Dines on Working with Ernie Ball Music Man for StingRay23:55 - D'Addario Strings© Copyright Gearhead Communications LLC, 2025

• LA LOM

  Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/la-lomSubscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeThe Los Angeles League of Musicians—LA LOM for short—brought the vintage vibe with them on the road last year.It wasn’t long ago that LA LOM—guitarist Zac Sokolow, bassist Jake Faulkner, and percussionist Nicholas Baker—were cutting their teeth together as the house band at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood, playing poolside for guests. Now, with eight EPs and a full-length record (2024’s The Los Angeles League of Musicians) since 2021, they’re a full-blown sensation, celebrating and interpreting the instrumental traditions of cumbia and Peruvian chicha. The trio played Nashville’s The Basement back in December, where PG’s John Bohlinger caught up with Sokolow and Faulkner to see what road rigs they use to bring their psychedelic cumbia dream to life.
