Purchased at a dodgy gas station years ago, this 1997 Gibson SG has been Chris Hannah’s No. 1 for over a decade. Hannah modded the SG with a mystery pickup in the neck position (perhaps a Bare Knuckle) and a Bare Knuckle Alnico NailBomb at the bridge. He also added an EverTune bridge for tuning stability. Strung with Ernie Ball .011-.052 sets, the SG stays tuned down a half-step with the low string dropped to C#. For picks, Hannah uses “those yellow ones,” which PG thinks are Dunlop .73 mm Tortex Standards.
Although Hago has several whammy bar-equipped guitars at home in Florida, she tours with her 1997 Gibson SG. It’s loaded with a Bare Knuckle Alnico NailBomb humbucker in the bridge position and sports an EverTune bridge. Hago strings her SG with Ernie Ball .010-.046 sets.
With the exception of a brief romance with Music Man basses, for most of his career Todd Kowalski has played an Ibanez Sound Gear SR 1500 strung with Ernie Ball .045-.105 sets. He has more expensive basses, but none that he likes as much as the SR 1500. - Hudba
They're so humble like they aren't some of the most skilled musicians in the history of rock music
Interviewer: So Todd what are you playing?
Todd: A bass.
Best comment I have read ever!
I showed a guy this interview and now Todd is his spirit animal for that attitude
Christ give the guy a break. Why is it bad that he's excited and passionate about the people he interviews. If the interviewers were less into it I guarantee the very same people would be saying "ohh why do they not act more interested? They're such a dull interviewer". It's sweet that he's so excited and it's nice to see.
The green day rundown was so dull! the interviewer was pretty dry. same with the techs :(
Its only because these interviews are so inconsistent, we are all here to geek out but I wish there was some structure to them. watched plenty where you are guessing tuning and string gauges
I think the interviewer did a wonderful job
Jenn Fiorentino Why am i not surprised to see you watched a Propagandhi rig rundown? Hope you’re doing well, Jenn!
agreed man, he obviously is trying his best not to nerd-out. But does a stellar job. fuckin eh
Amen to that. It's criminal how little attention these guys get. Best fackin band ever!
Hey Jen. Of course I'd see you here.
+Nate Cleveland yes
Never again will i be able to see a package of Ernie Ball strings the same way. Thank you, Todd.
This was awesome! The host really knows his gear and, importantly, was familiar with Propagandhi and their body of work. That was great to see. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The most Canadian bassist of all time
"How dare he geek out during an interview!"
Have you ever listened to Propagandhi?
They're like the punk equivalent to Rush, I would've freaked out too!
Very apt comparison! I'm stealing that in the future.
Hahah the punk equivalent of Rush... boy does that make sense.
I finally honed In on “Progressive Punk” as my ultimate genre description for Propagandhi.
Glad there’s finally a consensus building on what Propagandhi even is lol.
punk equivalent of Rush makes no sense...
Stephen Forbes Why?
1: Both have incredibly talented musicians.
2: Both have stood out as innovators in their genres, influencing many younger groups and even their own contemporaries.
3: Both have conceptual or themed albums.
4: Both have a super dedicated cult followings.
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY...
Canadians, eh?
I love that the interviewer is genuinely excited to speak to these guys.
"HEY MAN DUDE" Thats my new favorite way of greeting people.
I saw Propagandhi's first US show in a basement in Minot, ND, during a blizzard in the mid 90's and it's still one of the best shows I've ever seen.
I saw them play a gym basement in Minot like that same year too, with Spitboy! The Propagandhi / I Spy split is a favorite too.
That set list would have been amazing
I enjoyed that interview, and especially that not only was it a cool insight into one of the best bands in the world but also that it was the interviewer's favorite band - it was cool to see the awe and reverence on his face - as, often in these interviews the interviewers come off as kind of fake. This was refreshingly genuine.
Chickens fart in the backyard and the P-Bass is a little bit overdramatic
FINALY a killer punk band. Do more of this!
Awesome video! Thanks PG for giving the most underrated band of all time some attention
Thanks for watching!
I just discovered Propaghandi a few days ago, and I'm obsessed with them!!!
Best band in the world! Welcome to the absolute huge sounds of the most unique punk band ever
I suggest you listen to the albums in order to hear the amazing progression.
How to clean everything
@@ericcarrillo1294by far my favorite album. But they all have really good songs on them?
Love the enthusiasm in this interview. Propagandhi is a killer band that helped introduce the youth to great music, and gave us plenty to think about. They’ve done a lot of good things for people during their career. Definitely a highly influential and legendary band
I love how canadian Chris sounds.
Oh fuck yeah bud
Lauren M Yes. As a Canadian myself, that is a pretty typical Canuck accent. I never thought I sounded like him, but according to you Americans....I definitely do. Lol
That's definitely how Canadians sound in the Prairies, but nobody sounds like that on the West Coast. I've been told that people sound more California-ish here in BC.
@@michaelwiznuk 😂
Ohhh yeaaaah eh?
They're such hosers, I love it. Our hometown hero's here in Winnipeg.
All the hate on the interviewer. Get over yourselves, if I was excited about a band I wouldnt be able to shut up.
also it's so great how canadian these guys are and how they talk. It's just the best. great rig rundown!
Sulynn is definitely the most comfortable with the host's rapid fire geekery (in a good way). She is definitely the best part of the interview. She rips for sure and it's awesome that she also has such an interest in the gear side of playing.
They're all so chill, I effing love this band
Anndy Negative such regular people
Thank you for being excited about this amazing band!
The honesty in the enthusiasm is great!
This was awesome, Propagandhi is incredible and have been killing it for over 20 years! Chris and Sulynn are super talented guitarists.
Thank you so much for this. Absolutely amazing interview! Great depth to their rigs too!!
Amazing band... good to have a rig rundown with them...
I love this. Todd: "and this of course everyone likes this and I like it, this, uh, fuckin' thing here."
Awesome! Love that he’s a fan cause he asks the questions fans of Them would want to know! Thanks for this interview!
Right here with you on Prop - coolest band of all time. Loved that you geeked out on them.
Been a fan since the 90s, and finally got to see them live last year. I felt exactly how the interviewer does. Nerded out so hard when I got take a selfie with Chris after the show.
Gratitude for the crunchy tunes and tasty waves!
I love this interview, thanks so much for doing this.
Perry has fantastic taste in music. He always seems to get the really good band. Fantastic job guys. Thank you!!
Super glad this exists
Best big rig rundown ever, after watching one minute. I got to see them live, he acted appropriate, lol
One of my absolute favorite bands interviewed by the best guitar mag. Made my day, thank you!
I've been listening to propagandhi for 25 years, holy shit. I love those guys, Chris is so down to earth, such a kind human, I'd love to meet him someday.
never thought I'd see a tragedy shirt on rig rundown.
made my day!
It does look out of place on that dude though :P
@@WatchingMamut maybe not the typical “front row banger” look. but great taste anyway.
Best Band, best Rig Rundown!
Man these guys are so Canadian. y'knoooh? Friggin love it
I don’t know, I think you handled this pretty well. Propagandhi is also my all time favorite band and if I had the opportunity to do this interview with Chris Hannah, I’d probably shit my britches. Fellow nerds unite!
absolutely my favorite band.
Awesome interview, I really appreciate the enthusiasm. Kudos on the Tragedy shirt, too.
Perry totally fanboyed this. But fuck it, I would too lol.
I think he held his composer and stayed professional better than I would have. Propagandhi is a living legend still thrashing today. Been a fan since 97 and still have never gotten a chance to see them live.
Fuckin' love these guys! They have been the soundtrack to countless skate sessions, road trips, parties.. etc!
Great guys, great interviewer, well done!
Named checked SNFU!
Edmonton thanks you! Greatest punk band that most haven’t heard.
Perry did a great job btw
1, 2, S N F U!!!
juan pablo redon don't have a cow, man.
Love SNFU been a fan since '96
RIP Chi Pig.
Chris’s clean tone is amazing I wish he showed what he uses on it!
The speakers are called Celestion greenback 25watt in the basket weave Marshall 4x12
you'd think an interviewer for a guitar magazine would have known that immediately. Rebecca Dirks would have known. : P
This is so awesome.
Eating pancakes right now with trailer park boys playing in the background.
If anyone wants to hear an incredible band, check out one of Todds bands from way back when called I Spy. The disk is Perversity is Spreading, it has all their songs, I've been obsessed with since I was 14.
Great band, great record. I-Spy heavily influenced my first band in high school.
I have a copy on 10" vinyl, still one of my most prized possessions!
I still have the Propagandhi/I Spy split 10"
In case anyone is wondering....yes, all Western Canadians talk like Todd and we’re damn proud of it.
It’s a FUBAR thing. Watch the movie if you want to know what I’m talking about :-)
Perry great job as always you shouldn't apologize for being excited to do your job
Yes, finally a rig rundown for a good band!
Just came across this video. Have been a big fan of Propagandhi for a long time but my favorite guitar from any punk song was in 60 Billion Served when Todd was in I Spy. Appliances and Cars by them is really good too.
thank you for this!
Used to share a jamspace building with these dudes, they're super cool.
Fun Fact: "Boys of Summer" was written by Mike Campbell from Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers. Mike played it for Tom and Tom said "nah man, I ain't hearin' it", so it made its way to Don Henley. Don recorded it, and played it for his buddy Bob Seger, who said, 'yeah that's great, but you should have sung it higher. chicks dig when you sing high", so Don spent the weekend pitching it up higher and higher trying to find the right key and re-recorded the already finished track, which is the version we all know and love.
Remember when he was using a Mesa Mark III back in 96 or 97, loved the sound back then.
Dude: you’re my favorite band
Hannah: hey, thanks, your haircut is stupid.
Todd is my spirit animal.
You should interview Hot Snakes. John Reis and Rick Froberg have to of the coolest guitar setups Ive seen from a punk band.
I never realized I owned some of these legendary rack mounts; the BBE, the Maximizer
The interviewer is passionate ! I like it 👌
Stoked he asked about boys of summer. Ive heard that melodic phrase pop up in a few different contexts
Sulynn, what a cool woman!
It though she was a he, very unfeminine.
@@patrickclark3337 She doesn't need to be feminine. She is clearly a woman, she is referred to as female several times in the video. She definitely doesn't care that you can't get your pathetic micropenis hard over her.
@@patrickclark3337 she doesnt look male in any way. She's actually pretty just what we used to call "plain jane". Which isnt a bad thing. never heard of this band before , but ill be sure to check them out
Chris likes to party hard... Also enjoys his rock n roll the same!
Todd is a fuckin' beauty.
best band
Todd "The Rod" might be the best interviewee these guys have ever seen.
"This stuff, and that fuckin' thing there" lmao
doesn't care for gear, only for the sound of it, love it xD
The Rod is a beast
The Rod is a gift to mankind. He should be cloned for the enjoyment of future generations.
Without a doubt.
First i listened was how to clean everything album...best band...respect
I forgot to mention that my old band Millhouse out of San Antonio Texas opened up for Propagandhi back in 1995 I believe right before Less Talk or maybe it was for the Less Talk tour. My brothers and I hung out with Jord who was a really cool guy.
Thank you so much! This totally made my day. I'd be nervous too if I was interviewing the mighty Jesus H. Chris!
I would rather have an enthusiastic interviewer who asks inciteful, refreshing and probing questions, than a bored, disinterested one who asks the same, standardized questions just to pass time.
Finally, a decent punk rock band! Please no more blues rock revivalist bands.
Finally? They've been around 30 years.
@@rbalara31 I think in terms of interviews.
AWESOME..much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.....the music.
Dope band
He’s so amazingly Canadian!
Awesome Tragedy shirt ❤️
Best fuckin' band ever.
Every Propagandhi interview sounds like the real life Spinal Tap.
The evertune !! 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼 glad to see that band recognize innovation instead of bucking and remaining true to the ice age
Damn you can really tell this dude LOVES propagandhi. He had such a trembling voice, you could tell he was nervous.
The irony of an ad for cage free eggs before a Propagandhi video
Best fuckin band in the world. Thanks so much for this video!
I approve of this comment.
PATAKLYSM we would be friends...😌
Spice up your next party by watching a Rig Rundown hosted by Perry, and taking a drink every time he says "gotcha"
Todd "the Rod". Legend.
See if you can do A Wilhelm Scream!
Also really unique that they use AxeFx. I feel like more punk bands could benefit from using AxeFx or Kempers because they don't travel with the elaborate setups that most metal bands do (whenever have you ever heard about a punk band not called Green Day having a guitar tech).
would have not been able to compose myself. the interviewer did great, propagandhi is prophetic sooo
Sulynn seems rad
Holy shit Todd is so Canadian. Now I wonder if I sound like that.
Speaking of Brownsound, it would be _awesome_ if you could do a rig rundown with Sum 41 sometime!
Greatness
Perry is fine relax.
Gotta love em, they're so Canadian it hurts
How much of this video did you have to edit out of Chris talking about the Leafs?
Winnipeg represent 🤟
Todd's gear explanation was punk as hell. Some whatever Ibanez, Ampeg head so it doesn't get thrashed, and a "this fuckin thing here" 8x10 cab😂
I love this band (and I Spy)
He's definitely playing shiet down either cause he doesn't care for this type of content or his bored.. or who knows why ? But there's no way he actually is this stupid. These guys practice all the time and their songs are so well thought out and technical. Lol @ gain or distortion or whatever the fuk it's called 😂
