you all prolly dont give a shit but does any of you know a method to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb lost my password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me.
@Marcus Blaze i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I really love this band, they're one of my favorites , I wished you would have included Andy, but It was cool anyway, I play bass and sing and these guys really inspired me and they inspire the sound of my band , thanks for interviewing them, I love watching my favorite bands show their gear
True. Every time I just bring up the name First Act my friends react as if they suck or they're just good for beginners but not for serious, skilled musicians. Which is true. First Act should have their custom guitars and other instruments under a completely different brand but keep the beginner guitars with the same brand so their reputation won't be as bad.
To clear things up. First act had a custom shop at one point with actual luthiers (however you spell it) from fender and Gibson but due to changes on the business side they got rid of it.
I'm not big fan of devil wears prada but i enjoy the gear talk. this was one of the best vids you folks did. i think it was because the interviewer actually knew his shit!
I'm sitting here watching and thinking "hmmm...I wish the interviewer knew more." Perhaps he knows a lot, but it seemed like he barely knew about their gear or what it does apart from some names of important/big products.
I dont even play bass but it is still interesting to me. Having said that, it is probably just guitar and amp. I know he uses first act custom basses and orange amps if that helps
Not a huge fan of Devil's or Bring Me the Horizon but those have been some of my favorite rundown recently. Also major props to Perry. I enjoy how he conducts the interviews. Seems to make the interviewees act more relaxed and honestly it makes me want to listen to these dudes. Excellent job!
I was at Glow In The Dark Studios where they recorded their last album tracking drums for my local band and i looked over and saw a POG 2 sitting on a shelf with tape on it that said "dead throne" and i kinda fanboyed cause im assuming they left it there...i really wanted to steal it...
I really wish they interviewed Andy, they don't interview the bass players in alot of videos, but being a bass player , I would love to know what everyone uses, especially Andy because I love The Devil Wears Prada
Před 9 lety
I have a question and if someone could help please do! that black ibanez arz has two pickups and no switch, just a volume pot. does somebody know are both pickups on all time or is only the bridge connected and the neck is only there for esthetics?
Před 9 lety
So it's like I said...like a one pickup guitar with a volume knob. Thanks
He probably only uses the bridge. I always wondered that with Jack from all time low, he's got a couple guitars that have both pickups but the pickup selector taken out or knobs covered up, etc.
I don't think any actual guitarist gives a shit about either of those bands. just get a generic jcm 800 copy and scoop the mids with a warlock or something and you basically have bvb. trade the warlock with an esp and you have falling in reverse.
Lauren Marie Yea when I first heard of their custom shops, I was like what? I know a few people who owned them, its sucks they closed. The people who were the luthiers were ex-gibson
I didn't know Mike Hranica played guitar let alone a First Act. 0.0 And as soon as Jeremy starts talking about his pedal board I feel like the interviewer is lost lol. It's okay I am too. I know some stuff but I'm definitely not a gear nerd yet.
I cringe each time the interviewer reaches and grabs their guitars. Especially the third guy who says "yeah you can hold it..." after he already grabbed it. If he tried that with my gear I might kick him off the stage. Lol.
Pre amps, Peavey, line 6, axe fx, Ibanez, fx pedal. 12 gauge, tubes. Am I cool yet? Probably not. One day I will play guitar as good as Lil wayne then I will be god!!!
First Act makes a lot of very, very good guitars. Listen again and you'll hear that their First Act guitars are all custom, one-off guitars. Sure, First Act's beginner guitars may suck (which clouds the company's reputation) but they do indeed make very good products.
Tape delay or Tap tempo delay, im maybe wrong but the point is that the empress tape delay is one of the better tape delays that are in market why he want to change for some expensive product of JHS
Well obviously because he personally likes it better. That's what separates a real guitarists from someone who plays guitar. There is no better, only different things for different uses. You should learn that.
Not really...it's a great idea if one is playing hard during a show. The gunk can wash easily and the guitar can easily be cleaned up to look brand new. Keeps things from getting scratched, too!
The second guitarist is desperate to get across that he plays in other projects too. "Yaaa you knowwww not for pradaaa yknowwww" we get it, you're not wholly content playing in one band. Well done.
To be fair to him, as he goes on it's nice to see that he keeps everything he uses regardless of who he's playing with on one board. I'm drunk. Shut up.
some things make me question their actual faith in Jesus, in one of their songs it says "The blood relationship creates a wicked demise" when the blood relationship = eternal life the OPPOSITE of wicked demise. And in Hey John Whats Your Name Again He says "Salvation lies within" when it obviously lies within Jesus, not yourself. , Then they adopt traingle, and Mike Hranica has an upside down pentagram brand for foot pedal?????? I think they are one of those wolf in sheeps clothing Christian bands but idk for sure.... however my first example is pretty crazy.
Mastodon and High On Fire both play First Act Guitars or at least they did for awhile. So, that's PRETTY metal. P.S. They are probably the custom, expensive ones too.
Make no mistake, First Act's custom guitars are fucking bitchin'. It's like they use most of the money they make off Wal Mart to make a handful of awesome guitars.
I'm sure they are fine guitars, but I think most chuckle a bit when you see someone playing a First Act guitar. I am an old school metal head and not into the Devil Wears Prada etc, so I just don't relate. Charvel, Ibanez, Kramer and Gibson's are more my speed.
Firelock I don't get this group either, but High on Fire and Mastodon are way more old school. Those Mastodon guys have a huge collection of 70s and 80s Gibson's, Silverburst Flying V's and LP Customs, E2 and Artist CMT Explorers, RD's, etc. Bill even has his own signature Goldburst Explorer. Brent just needed a 12 string in the style of a Yamaha SG, and the First Act guys built it up for him. He also has a killer plexilglass flying v with a vibrola and an aluminum neck built by some guys that are doing Travis Bean reissues and customs out of Pensacola, Florida.
I miss Chris Rubey. that dude was 🔥🔥🔥
SAAAAAMMMMMEEEEEE
you all prolly dont give a shit but does any of you know a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb lost my password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me.
@Cayson Arlo instablaster =)
@Marcus Blaze i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm.

@Cayson Arlo happy to help :D
12:20 "jammin around at home... stoner type stuff"
Mike definitely burns mad blunts haha i love it
lol he was talking about "stoner metal" type stuff.
He definitely never smoked.
I really love this band, they're one of my favorites , I wished you would have included Andy, but It was cool anyway, I play bass and sing and these guys really inspired me and they inspire the sound of my band , thanks for interviewing them, I love watching my favorite bands show their gear
First Act needs to change their goddamn name if they want to be taken seriously.
True. Every time I just bring up the name First Act my friends react as if they suck or they're just good for beginners but not for serious, skilled musicians. Which is true. First Act should have their custom guitars and other instruments under a completely different brand but keep the beginner guitars with the same brand so their reputation won't be as bad.
Yeah. Maybe name their pro shop "Final Act".
FrostByte Exactly! That name is perfect!
The amount of compensation I'd want if they stole that idea from me is unimaginable.
FrostByte Lol! You should contact them and make a deal. :)
To clear things up. First act had a custom shop at one point with actual luthiers (however you spell it) from fender and Gibson but due to changes on the business side they got rid of it.
Plz come back Chris 💔
I didn't even know mike played guitar live
No Andy? :(
I'm not big fan of devil wears prada but i enjoy the gear talk. this was one of the best vids you folks did. i think it was because the interviewer actually knew his shit!
I'm sitting here watching and thinking "hmmm...I wish the interviewer knew more." Perhaps he knows a lot, but it seemed like he barely knew about their gear or what it does apart from some names of important/big products.
Nate Smit i think the interviewer does know his stuff but is just letting the guys talk
but i dont know for sure, this is just what i see
he didnt know what a 6534 was
This interviewer gets the most shit talked about him to but I like him
I love Jeremy's taste in guitars.
the tremolo for the giggity giggity ?
Thank you so much PG for not making the interviewer stick the big ass mic in the guitarists face.
im guessing they just gave the guitarists personal mics
We miss you Chris Rubey. :/
They show Mike's guitar rig but skip Andy's bass rig? maybe its because im a bassist but I wanted to see Andy talk about his gear :(
The bass player is always the red headed step child of the band. I admire your sacrifice by choosing the bass.
I wish they would have talked about it too. The bass holds the band. Everybody should respect that, even guitarists, like me.
Yeah, people are fucking scared of bass.
same
I dont even play bass but it is still interesting to me. Having said that, it is probably just guitar and amp. I know he uses first act custom basses and orange amps if that helps
Not a huge fan of Devil's or Bring Me the Horizon but those have been some of my favorite rundown recently. Also major props to Perry. I enjoy how he conducts the interviews. Seems to make the interviewees act more relaxed and honestly it makes me want to listen to these dudes. Excellent job!
Hahaha I love how he grabbed the guys first act and he says "yeah you can touch it"
I was at Glow In The Dark Studios where they recorded their last album tracking drums for my local band and i looked over and saw a POG 2 sitting on a shelf with tape on it that said "dead throne" and i kinda fanboyed cause im assuming they left it there...i really wanted to steal it...
W a t
Yeah I want that Ibanez ARZIR20 guitar. Just checked it out. Looks amazing.
I really wish they interviewed Andy, they don't interview the bass players in alot of videos, but being a bass player , I would love to know what everyone uses, especially Andy because I love The Devil Wears Prada
I have a question and if someone could help please do!
that black ibanez arz has two pickups and no switch, just a volume pot.
does somebody know are both pickups on all time or is only the bridge connected and the neck is only there for esthetics?
So it's like I said...like a one pickup guitar with a volume knob. Thanks
Really wish you guys would do a Rig Rundown of Circa Survive.
Love this and love TDWP.
We are heading out across the US with Hawthorne Heights in August. We should do a rig rundown!
Love this new guy
Awesome guitars.
If you guys could get a rundown of Andys gear id really appreciate it thank you!
I'm surprise Jeremy DePoyster doesn't have a Blacktop Jazzmaster, its his exact set up. It be easier to load the JB in there.
+M1CKss I saw an interview that said he likes the necks on the reissues or whatever. So that might be why haha
that kick drum!
Loved the rundown but the only thing he forgot to ask the guys is what strings and guitar picks they are using.
When he was talking about his purple backup ARZ I don't think he realized that Steve Vai is the guitarist with the handle. Not Joe Satriani.
Any idea what model Chris’ RH is? I’ve never like one until I saw this and now I want one to mod the same.
it's funny that Mike says he hates the big muff but the hoof pedal is a direct copy of a big muff.
Actually, I agree with Mike. I don't like Muff, but The Hoof sounds much sweater and clearer
This makes me appreciate my axe fx so much.
How does Chris switch between pickups on the black backup ARZ?
He probably only uses the bridge. I always wondered that with Jack from all time low, he's got a couple guitars that have both pickups but the pickup selector taken out or knobs covered up, etc.
his smile says he fucks with this band
7:28 managed to scare the piss outta me...THANK YOU CHRIS >:(
XD
I really liked the interviewer
Jeremy likes to taped every switch his guitar have XD
Mike's First Act is a wonderful guitar
Those guitars are so sick!
Can someone point me in the direction of andy's first act please.
What's the actual name of the switching system Jeremy is using on his board? Can't really understand when he says the brand. Is it "mower"?
it looks like the moen ge9
Oh thanks a lot :)
nicola coin i think its Mooer...pretty good brand, i use a bunch of thier stuff
What's a "Mogue" if that's how you spell it?
can you guys do a rig rundown on falling in reverse or black veil brides
I don't think any actual guitarist gives a shit about either of those bands. just get a generic jcm 800 copy and scoop the mids with a warlock or something and you basically have bvb. trade the warlock with an esp and you have falling in reverse.
MICHAEL no.
how does he connect the guitar to the pedal since the guitar is wired to a wireless system?
FX loop?
The wireless system has an output to go through the signal chain, which includes pedals, and then into the input of the amp.
He said first act and I was like... what.
Lauren Marie Yea when I first heard of their custom shops, I was like what? I know a few people who owned them, its sucks they closed. The people who were the luthiers were ex-gibson
Omfg same here. Lmao
Lauren Marie right?! First act is Walmart brand
What's wrong with first act. They are made in same factories as everything else
I didn't know Mike Hranica played guitar let alone a First Act. 0.0 And as soon as Jeremy starts talking about his pedal board I feel like the interviewer is lost lol. It's okay I am too. I know some stuff but I'm definitely not a gear nerd yet.
No shit Sherlock ! The Les Paul's gonna be a heavier then a Jazz Master !
Cool
DWP is a christian metal band and prolly my fav CM band
Come on dude, the eqd hoof IS a muff style circuit bro
Man, Mike really has a taste for boutique gear, eh? They all have awesome gear though. Good for de heavies
What is the name of the song on the beginning of this video?
War off 8:18
*gasp* Mike got a haircut!
what song for the intro
+ikram mahasin "War"
Joel Mchale works for PG now?
For realz though, that guy seems cool. I like the specialized dudes for different genres of RR's.
The Hoof is legit
Iktpq next!!!!!!
This presenter is so on edge.
Name always reminds me of the devil went down to georgia
I cringe each time the interviewer reaches and grabs their guitars. Especially the third guy who says "yeah you can hold it..." after he already grabbed it. If he tried that with my gear I might kick him off the stage. Lol.
I thought the same
EMG 85 as a bridge pick up..?
Yes, it sounds sick!
y no andy
can you guys do black veil brides or Memphis may fire
are these baritone guitars?
No
lmao no, they just buy 11-12 guage string and use bariton tunings lol. but they have recently started using 7 strings in standard drop a
Yes
" EMG pickups...".
Next.
HOLY FUCK MIKE GOT A HAIRCUT
First Act???.....
Kind of!
Jeremy should've used a Kurt Cobain Signature Mustang instead
Pre amps, Peavey, line 6, axe fx, Ibanez, fx pedal. 12 gauge, tubes.
Am I cool yet? Probably not. One day I will play guitar as good as Lil wayne then I will be god!!!
Woah the first pedalboard looks so gnarly and sticky
First Act? THE HELL?
First act has a custom shop. VERY EXPENSIVE. No joke
This shit seems way to complex I feel dumb af lmao
I know those are Jeremy's guitars, but I cringe when I see "hacking and tape" on a guitar!!! ....makes me sad!!!
Peavey amps and I-ben-had guitars?? This is like a rig rundown from my room when I was 14.
And I didn't even make it to the First Act guitar!!! OMFG what a bunch of fucking dorks. Fuck skinnyjeanscore.
At the end of the day its a well used combination, and if its the sound and feel the player wants then whats wrong with that?
August Burns Red has some of the most brutal metal tones ever, and they use that combo.
whatever works man
Don't forget the EMGs.
what is the thing he is touching at 24:50 Premier Guitar
Dudes playing a custom guitar from a company that is in Toys R Us..damn dude
First Act has an awesome custom shop but most of their store bought guitars are shit
They do! Matt Pike from High on Fire, and Bill and Brent from Mastodon both have, and still use there custom First Acts.
Goddamnit just let Jeremy talk. Let the gear nerd of people's favorite band talk to the gear nerds watching the Rig Rundown...
Really........ First act
First Act makes a lot of very, very good guitars. Listen again and you'll hear that their First Act guitars are all custom, one-off guitars. Sure, First Act's beginner guitars may suck (which clouds the company's reputation) but they do indeed make very good products.
The shit he's done to those Jazzmasters is painful to look at.
I miss Rebecca
Gaslight anthem come on!!
JHS doesnt have a tape delay, the delay that they have now is the cub panter, and in my opinion the empress tape is way better
He said analog
Guerin Williams At 13:25 he said the new analog TAPE delay
William CARRENO NIETO he said TAP delay
Tape delay or Tap tempo delay, im maybe wrong but the point is that the empress tape delay is one of the better tape delays that are in market why he want to change for some expensive product of JHS
Well obviously because he personally likes it better. That's what separates a real guitarists from someone who plays guitar. There is no better, only different things for different uses. You should learn that.
It's stupid how they put tape on there guitars.
Not really...it's a great idea if one is playing hard during a show. The gunk can wash easily and the guitar can easily be cleaned up to look brand new. Keeps things from getting scratched, too!
all this money, so many guitar companies, an you chose.....first act.
He did mention ecg though.
Lol what money
why did they name their band this lol
David Snow They actually hate the name, but they figured it wore on them. By the time they started to hate the name, everyone knew them as TDWP
David Snow Named it after the book thinking it was "deep", they read the book and no it wasn't. Then the movie came out lol
why do i get the feeling that the interview has no idea what he's talking about half the time
I am in total agreement with you...Know your gear before you start guessing wrongly, am I right?! Lol. They have sweet gear though.
The second guitarist is desperate to get across that he plays in other projects too. "Yaaa you knowwww not for pradaaa yknowwww" we get it, you're not wholly content playing in one band. Well done.
To be fair to him, as he goes on it's nice to see that he keeps everything he uses regardless of who he's playing with on one board. I'm drunk. Shut up.
Martyn Hughes the second guitarist is the lead singer actually
Noticed that too lol. What a bunch of dorks
some things make me question their actual faith in Jesus, in one of their songs it says "The blood relationship creates a wicked demise" when the blood relationship = eternal life the OPPOSITE of wicked demise.
And in Hey John Whats Your Name Again
He says "Salvation lies within" when it obviously lies within Jesus, not yourself.
, Then they adopt traingle, and Mike Hranica has an upside down pentagram brand for foot pedal?????? I think they are one of those wolf in sheeps clothing Christian bands but idk for sure.... however my first example is pretty crazy.
There is something so... not metal about First Act guitars.
Mastodon and High On Fire both play First Act Guitars or at least they did for awhile. So, that's PRETTY metal.
P.S. They are probably the custom, expensive ones too.
you can by them at toys r us!
Make no mistake, First Act's custom guitars are fucking bitchin'. It's like they use most of the money they make off Wal Mart to make a handful of awesome guitars.
I'm sure they are fine guitars, but I think most chuckle a bit when you see someone playing a First Act guitar. I am an old school metal head and not into the Devil Wears Prada etc, so I just don't relate. Charvel, Ibanez, Kramer and Gibson's are more my speed.

He also has a killer plexilglass flying v with a vibrola and an aluminum neck built by some guys that are doing Travis Bean reissues and customs out of Pensacola, Florida.
The interviewer seems like an awesome dude but he sometimes looks like he's bumped a little. Coke that is.
The interviewer is painful to watch.
Man the first guy knows NOTHING.
these guys are still a band? damn shame
Damn straight they are, Prada never dies.
Michaelthe Cuntcrusher that is an unfortunate truth I guess.
Chris Mortlock make your own band if you can do better man
Maloney Bologna the classic "you can't do better" rebuttal, very original.
Chris Mortlock oldest trick in the book. u should have anticipated it ;)
metal band w/ vintage gear -_-
Litterally none of their gear is vintage.
Worst. Band. Name. Ever.
