Transcript

00:00I am Josh Feidler from the Juliana Theory and we are here in the Subterranean in Chicago

00:17on our 25 year Understand This is a Dream tour.

00:23So yeah, I'm here to talk about my guitars and I'll kind of talk about everybody's guitar

00:28but my two, I'll kind of start with the acoustic so we, Brett uses this mostly for August and

00:37Bethany but we use it a lot for some pre-show stuff as well so it's like a beautiful Gibson

00:46hummingbird that we got from the fine folks at Gibson.

00:51I love this thing.

00:52You know, just pretty standard, we use Ernie Ball decoded lights, I think they're 12-52's

00:59or something.

01:00Yeah, so it's pretty standard.

01:03So my guitars, I use all Reverends on the road so I play two during the set.

01:11So this is a Reverend Kingbolt.

01:14It's got the two, what are they called, hyper vintage pickups so they're like just humbuckers

01:24and I use the bass contour knob a lot.

01:27I usually have it kind of about a quarter of the way up, that gives me not as much beef

01:32so I can kind of cut through a bit more with the mids and everything but I've used this

01:36guitar for quite a few years, it's one of my favorite guitars.

01:40I love this thing.

01:41Tuning for all of our guitars are D standard so just a whole step down, I use the Ernie

01:48Ball M-Steels, it's like the high output strings and I use 11-48's for everything so I kind

01:56of found like 11-48's gives me that kind of spot.

02:00I used to use 12-52's all the time and then 10-46 is a little light for when we tune down

02:06so I kind of found like 11-49 gives me that sweet spot between not too heavy, not too

02:11light, I can still bend everything pretty far.

02:15So I've been using, I use this a lot on like stuff after Understand, I use this mostly

02:23for like Emotion Is Dead and on because I almost always play Les Pauls and stuff with

02:27humbuckers.

02:28The first record, Understand, I had a Ibanez Talon on them I used a lot and it had P90's

02:33so I recently got this Reverend Gristle 90 which is awesome because it's got this color

02:42that I think was like a semi-mistake, it was supposed to be blue and it came out almost

02:45like Sherwood Green so it's like the Greg Caulk Gristle 90 signature.

02:52It's got like the Fishman P90's so it's kind of weird, I charge them instead of like normal

02:59thing but it doesn't have any hum or anything which is awesome.

03:03And then the Bigsby, I love any guitar with a Bigsby, I know some people hate them, some

03:07people love them, I love them, it's like just the perfect amount of bend on them and stuff

03:12so yeah.

03:13I switch between them all the time like for something that's straight, you know like a

03:19song for like a DJ or this is not a love song, I'm all just bridge pick up but anytime I

03:26have cleans I'm mostly on the neck or in the middle and then it's got like a cool different

03:31voicing button as well, it kind of gives a couple of different voices, one's a little

03:36more mid-ranging and one's a little more bassier so I'll switch that a little bit between the

03:42songs as well so.

03:44So this is my pedal board, I use the Pedaltrain Novo 32 and a few years ago we decided to

03:54go Helix route instead of Karin amps, makes it nice for places like this when you have

03:59to go up steps and not to plug the amps so we just have, you know, my pedal board.

04:05Now for this run I actually just got the Pedaltrain so I can put a few more pedals on it and so

04:10I just have, I've got the Helix so I use this for my amps and a lot of effects but for instance

04:18I have like most of my stuff is, I almost have a pedal board for each song except for

04:24this record I, you know, I kind of do two amps that I run simultaneously, I use it for

04:32an AC30 model and then like a JMP model so it kind of simulates a little bit like what

04:38I did back in the day and then I kind of have, you know, for my overdrive I've got the Klon

04:45setting and then Dyna drive for my distortions and then I use like the compressor a good

04:54bit which is like the, like the Keeley like model anyway, vintage delay, I've got the

05:0163 like spring reverb on most of the time and then I also got, I got the H9 to kind

05:08of give me some like extra stuff so I have like the AUX switch and I kind of go through

05:14like some different things that I wanted to be able to do, some extra noise that the Helix,

05:21you know, has some stuff but the Eventide has a lot more like the delays and reverbs

05:26that are kind of crazy so I kind of have different presets for some of the songs that I do so

05:31you can see like August and Bethany, Music Box Superhero has a phaser, like a different

05:37octave pedal so I kind of go through with these as I go, you know, for different songs

05:44and then I use like the drop pedal for a few songs we drop it down to B standard or, yeah,

05:51B standard for just a few things that, you know, Brett can sing but with the amount of

05:59shows we're doing and the length of the set, you know, we're not 18 year olds, it's kind

06:04of hard to hit some of those notes now so we do drop a few songs for like that and then

06:08I have like the Chase Bliss Mute that I use it at home a lot for, you know, some crazy

06:14delays and reverbs and stuff but live I mostly use it as the looper and to kind of create

06:21like pad loops like in between songs at the end of songs and I'll kind of just like, you

06:28know, mess around with the knob that makes all these crazy sounds and, yeah, that's what

06:33I'm using.

06:34One of the things I've been using is like my, I use a Shure GLX wireless.

06:41It's amazing, it's never given me any issues.

06:44Not sponsored by Shure but it is awesome and then a couple of things I have on my mic stand

06:49like I do, I actually do the tune, in-tune picks so I have some like just my stuff on

07:00my personalized.

07:01I use the one, one millimeter, yeah, it's like, it's almost like the Tortex material

07:07so that's what I've been using for years and years and years and then just a copper, copper

07:15guitar slide and then I use a Hill mic, everybody else is using Shure's.

07:23I got this mic a few years ago, I started using it live and it's just been perfect,

07:28I've never had any issues with it.

07:30I don't know a whole lot about mics, guitars and pedals are more my thing but I do love

07:34this thing so, yeah.

07:37So yeah, anything else that you guys want to find out about, you can find us on all

07:41the social media platforms.
