Gear Check

A topic for posting pictures and links regarding what gear our favorite musicians use. Guitars, drums, amps, all up for grabs.

If you’re taking something from a music video, link the video!


Taken from カルメン・マキ&OZ 私は風 '76. Love the sunburst finish on this Stratocaster. Goes well with the music too!


These two were taken from the アンフィル - THE BAD JOKE【Official Music Video】. Love this guitar.

Looks like some variation of Zemaitis C24MF Casimere . ~$1500 guitar.


Last one is from [Official MV] Unlucky Morpheus「Black Pentagram」.

Is that an EVH 5150 Iconic Head? That’s $1000 equipment! It’s too smoky to make out the cab though…


Zooming in on that guitar, looks like an ESP E-II Horizon III FR. The price of this is staggering :eyes:


Drummer uses TAMA. I’m useless at violins but I bet Jill’s instrument costs a pretty penny.

What y’all got?

I found this on reddit. Someone asked for the guitar he is using and apprently it’s a Donner HUSH-I. A foldable 300 Euro “travel guitar”. Is this his main guitar now…? Can’t imagine it sounding good for a professional musician who has so much guitar experience.

It reinforces my hypothesis that rock is not his main focus, and so the equipment that he chooses is gonna show that.

It’s an electric-acoustic guitar. I have one, and I paid $400 for mine. It’s a passable acoustic guitar, and I’ve plugged it in to test out the electronics once or twice and I got a good sound. But I read online and can now appreciate the viewpoint of musicians who say that if you buy an electric-acoustic guitar, you’re basically splitting the costs between the electric and acoustic components and coming out with a worse guitar overall for it. I can understand that now, even though I’m still glad I have an electric-acoustic.

I do find $300 a bit on the low side, but if it works it works! Interesting how in this case Amazon decided to put a warning on this particular model…

Here’s a pic of the guitar out of the case:

Seems like it could fit in a travel compartment and be easy to carry around. He likely has other guitars too!

EarthQuakerDevicesJP have a series called Board to Death and Show Us Your Junk which sometimes feature Japanese artists such as Miya from Mucc and Wata from Boris to show their pedal boards.
