Slash Rig Rundown for His Blues Ball Band with Tash Neal for . Festival Tour

Guns N’ Roses Rig Rundown: Subscribe to PG’s Channel: Slash’s blues-rock romp Orgy of The Damned debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Blues Albums Chart this spring. Now, the legendary guitar slinger is taking it to the people with his 29-date . Blues Festival tour. When Slash’s Blues Ball Band played an intimate pre-tour gig at the Gibson Garage in Nashville, they invited John Bohlinger and the PG team. Before shooting our Rundown with singer/guitarist Tash Neal and Slash’s tech, Ace Bergman, Slash sat down with PG for a chat. The maestro tells Bohlinger about how he found his blues sound on a 1963 Gibson ES-335 he picked up at Norman’s Rare Guitars in Los Angeles. That guitar was copied by the Gibson Custom Shop for the Slash 1963 ES-335 Collector’s Edition model, which he now brings on the road. On Orgy of the Damned, Slash and company are digging into a different repertoire than his usual hard-rock-’n’-rollin’ fare. In this case, he’s re-exploring influences and old bands. “All these songs had … a very specific influence on me,” he explains. Back in the ’90s, Slash formed his Blues Ball Band, and he was inspired to pick that project back up, record, and hit the road to play “music that I really loved when I was a kid.” Shop Slash’s Gear: Gibson Custom 1963 Firebird V - Gibson Slash Les Paul Standard Electric Guitar - Appetite Burst - Seymour Duncan APH-2s Alnico II Pro Slash Humbuckers (Set) - Seymour Duncan Slash 2.0 Humbucker (Set) - Magnatone Super Fifty-Nine M-80 2 x 12-Inch 45-Watt Combo - Magnatone Super Fifty-Nine M-80 - 45-Watt Tube Head - Boss DD-3 Digital Delay - MXR M68 Uni-Vibe Chorus / Vibrato Pedal - MXR EVH Phase 90 Eddie Van Halen Phase Pedal - Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer - MXR MC401 CAE Boost/Line Driver Pedal - Dunlop 535Q Cry Baby Wah - Peterson StroboStomp HD Tuner - Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2Plus - Radial Shotgun 4-Channel Amp Driver - Ernie Ball 2220 Power Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings - . - Dunlop Tortex mm Picks - Gibson Les Paul Standard ’50s Goldtop - Gibson SG Special Electric Guitar - Ebony - Fender ’59 Bassman LTD 4 x 10-inch 45-Watt Tube Combo Amp - Fender Waylon Jennings Phaser - Electro-Harmonix Green Russian Big Muff Pi Fuzz - T-Rex Fuel Tank Classic Power Supply - Full Rig Info: Subscribe to PG’s Channel: Win Guitar Gear: Don’t Miss a Rundown: Merch & Magazines: PG’s Facebook: PG’s Instagram: PG’s Twitter: PG’s TikTok: @premierguitar [Brought to you by D’Addario: ] 0:00 - D’Addario & Joe Glaser 0:15 - Slash Blues Ball Band Intro 0:40 - John Bohlinger Intro 0:52 - Slash on Releasing Orgy of the Damned 1:36 - Slash on his 1963 ES-335 Collector’s Edition model 3:26 - Slash on Song Selection for Orgy of the Damned 4:51 - Slash on Recording Orgy of the Damned 5:35 - Slash on Gear for Orgy of the Damned 8:00 - Gear Differences for Blues Ball Band & GN’R 10:06 - Embracing Jams and Solos on Orgy of the Damned 11:50 - Slash Playing Pedal-Steel Guitar on Fest 12:38 - Gibson Custom Shop Master Artisan Leo Scala Explorer 14:02 - Gibson Custom 1963 Firebird V 14:42 - Slash’s Ernie Ball Power Slinkys & Tunings 15:35 - Slash 1963 ES-335 Collector’s Edition 16:42 - 1986 Gibson Les Paul Standard 18:20 - 1970s Travis Bean TB1000S 20:34 - Slash’s Magnatone Super Fifty-Nine M-80 Amps 22:32 - Slash’s Blues Ball Band Pedalboard 29:36 - D’Addario & the Rig Rundown 30:07 - Tash Neal Intro 32:18 - Tash Neal’s Gibson Les Paul ’50s Goldtop & SG Special 34:54 - Tash Neal on Playing with Just 3 Strings! 36:54 - Tash Neal’s Fender ’59 Bassman LTD 4x10 38:59 - Tash Neal’s Pedalboard 46:12 - Fest Tour Happening Now! 46:47 - D’Addario Strings © Copyright Gearhead Communications LLC, 2024 #guitar #guitarist #rigrundown #slash #gunsnroses #guitarplayer #gibson #lespaul
