Rig Rundown: Thrice [2021]
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 09. 2024
- Recently @ThriceOfficial’s Dustin Kensrue (vocals/guitar) and Teppei Teranishi (guitar) participated in PG’s Hooked. (The video series features musicians talking about a moment, riff, or song that turned their world upside down and sideswiped them into playing.) Kensrue raved about the Pixies’ dissonant melodies, while Teranishi highlighted Metallica’s heavy impact. And at the conclusion of the video, they both admit the band has a lot of “Pixies” parts and “Metallica” moments throughout its catalog.
Over the course of 11 studio albums-with the help of brothers Eddie (bass) and Riley (drums) Breckenridge-Thrice has explored odd-timing metal (Identity Crisis and The Illusion of Safety), thrashy screamo (The Artist in the Ambulance), maturing post-hardcore (Vheissu and Palms), all-encompassing prog-rock with ethereal escapes and mammoth, surly riffs (The Alchemy Index: Vols. I-IV), and an amalgamation of it all (To Be Everywhere Is to Be Nowhere and Horizons/East). And even after all those years, all those albums, and all their discovered sounds, the Pixies and Metallica continue to be musical planets they orbit while exploring the outer realms of the sonic solar system.
Prior to headlining Nashville’s Mercy Lounge in support of the just-released Horizons/East, Kensrue and Teranishi spoke with PG’s Perry Bean about the changes (and reductions) in their symbiotic setups. Kensrue explains why he’s shifted his live tone (and Horizons/East recordings) to be fully dependent on the Line 6 Helix, and how that impacted the design of his signature Ernie Ball Music Man StingRay. Teranishi chronicles how the pandemic-created time void sent him down the lutherie rabbit hole and resulted in a familiar-looking-but-original build.

Definitely need to do the rig rundown for bassists too. Eddie makes his own basses and effect pedals so I wonder if he helped Teppei out with his new guitar. Eddie's tone makes me want to build my own Grabber style bass with Lollar pickups.
About to start watching this… No Eddie?!? AGAIN!!??? So weak.
True they did the same with Rise Against always skipping the bass
it’s not that they skip the bassist ( maybe they do ) but if an artist doesn’t want to do a rig rundown, they’re not forced to. Also time constraints, since most of these are done before the band plays. That said, i would’ve loved to gave seen Eddie’s rig
I feel Rig Rundowns feature the bassist about a third of the time. They aren’t being overlooked on purpose. It’s up to the individual musician if they want to be featured. (I imagine the bigger the band/artist, the more PG would like to have everyone featured if they are interested in doing it.)
Most basses p, j or Gibson style in this case into ampeg svt stack but will total agree I wanna see it …
I've been playing with modellers for years and him splitting his pickups on a stereo cable and controlling what pickup is on and how much it is on might be the most mindblowing thing I've never thought of... That's so rad
That’s such a cool twist on the digital amp world-what a rad set-up, and without needing midi built into the guitar…so sick
Steve Von Till from Neurosis does a similar thing with his Warmoth partscasters, using a stereo cable and making his pickup selection in a Bob Bradshaw system
I love Dustin and his Rig and everything, but the usage of modelling that blew my mind completely is by Stevic of Twelve foot ninja! There are videos where he describes how he uses the Helix with his signature Variax! It's incredible!
@@clArne sweet, I’m going looking for that-cheers!
@@vwharman here you go: czcams.com/video/g9OzTBKA6AU/video.html
The stereo cable and Helix control over the pickup output is an incredibly cool idea. When the signature came out I did not understand the stereo out and switch thing, I totally get it now.
Love these dudes!
Dustin is the reason that I originally bought a Line 6 POD HD500x. And then when TBEITBN was released and saw the Helix being used live, I went and bought one. I have since switched to the Quad Cortex, but the Helix is still great despite being almost 7 years old now. I still have my HD500x in the cupboard and it still works and sounds great.
What do you think of the Quad Cortex? I like the format of it, seems like it would be a bit more user friendly than the Fractal Axe FX. I have the Fractal now but the interface is just too much menu diving for my liking.
Their aol sessions are some of the best sounding live performances Iv ever heard . Very cool songs
thrice has been my favorite band since 2001. incredibly talented group, i cant stress that enough
20 years and they’ve kept the same lineup the whole time. And that’s not including the time they’ve known each other as kids. It’s pretty special.
Got to see them live a little over a week ago and their tone is soooo good live. I strive to emulate it.
Big facts, their tone is incredible live
Sames
They are just so beautiful and nice people to listen to, thrice is something whole different in the 'nowadays' music industry♥️
One of my favorite band sounds so awesome every time. I fell in love with them by finding vheissu and that opened me up to their to their stuff. It’s one of those rare perfect albums but they have many great ones !!
Dustin's so interesting. Gibson to Telecaster modded with Line 6, to Nash Tele, now to Ernie Ball Music man.
This was a great rig rundown. I sold all my "Named" guitars a while back after building my first guitar. It's addicting. I now have 9 guitars I built to my taste. With 3 more in production. I also have switched to Helix 2 years now as my preamps into my tube heads as a mono wet/dry into cabs with all the effects as well.
Proud to have this fantastic EBMM Stingray 😎 Teppei you just GREAT!! Cheers & greez from Swiss! Love your music!
Really informative rig rundown, only thing I wish was that we got a bass rundown as well! Perry killing it as always, knowledgeable, enthusiastic and professional! Well done!
my first concert was thrice in west hollywood. my best friend in 5th grade was cousins with the lead singer dustin. it was dope af
Nice! What about the bass??
Love the sound of the bass on their latest album!
I think Eddie uses a Gibson Grabber II with an Ampeg B15 and a Marshall JMP MK-1 Super Bass??
His main bass (the brown one) he made from a Grabber that got damaged in shipping. He made another one (the blonde) with Lollar precision 90 pickups. Grabber pickups are impossible to find, no one knows how to make them, and Gibson won't share how to make them or make them available for purchase. Eddie said the Lollars are the closest he's found but they're a bit hotter. Not sure what he's running for pedals or amps right now. Him and Riley killed it on the new album though. Great drumming and bass throughout. Hoping they continue to deliver on Horizons/West and we get that followup sooner rather than later.
I want that damn Kensrue Stingray so bad.
I NEEEED these patches Dustin! Do it!
Agreed!
Perry does a great job with these rundowns, he asks really good questions
So for Horizons/East, his guitar was just directly into the interface? The guitars sound so good and crisp!
It bothers me to no end that they rarely do the bassists rigs as well.
To PG's credit there are a lot of bassists who are just playing the root notes of the chord progression to fill the tonal spectrum and keep rhythm; however, to your credit, there are so many bassists' who play a significant role in the band's overall sound (often adding more to the dynamics of the band than the guitar players do) and they definitely need recognition.
To add to that, it’s also called premier guitar, not premier bass …
we need bass interviews!!!
I was hoping to hear that guitar he made . Iv thought about making my own many times . Cnc routers aren’t that expensive I just didn’t quite know how to work the software to make an sg . But for cheap you can buy the necessary machines and make a fleet of guitars for way cheaper than buying multiple guitars from name brands.
Why would anyone dislike this??? Must be insane and not truly appreciate a badass band like Thrice!
Teppei tapping into his roots, like a samurai building his own sword lol.
I use the line 6 and the PC set up. I love it. Sometimes I don't even bring my PC with me
You can get rid of the delay if you turn on "preset spillover" but it cuts your available DSP in half.
Stereo out is a game changer. I wish the guys had actually demoed some sounds though.
That stereo cable to get different pickups is such a good idea. Amazing.
Even if you don't use the bar, having it there does very subtly change the resonance of the guitar. It's kind of like a chambered effect, but not exactly. You can always just block it off if you don't use it anyway.
I just stumbled upon this video, so thank you Premier Guitar (and Dustin/Teppei) for the awesome video! I had no idea Thrice did a new Rig Rundown vid. Hopefully next time we can get Eddie's rig rundown.
Off topic, but I hope guitar-driven music makes a comeback (in the mainstream); there's no better feeling than plugging into a hot rig, and playin' in front of a crowd.
Perry is so confused (at 6:45) that there's only a Helix Floor and powered cabs for Dustin's setup. 🙃
Love what your doing!!! You inspire me!!!
Never really listened to them, but they have exquisite taste in gear
go listen to “The Alchemy Index” from 2007, then check out the new record “Horizons/East”. their two masterpieces.
The word Mustang is never used to describe that guitar. Is it just me that sees the similarities? Even the metal plate where the knob sits, that's iconic to the Mustang. If the pickups were slightly angled, it would be identical. Close at least...
Perfecttttt seeing them in Tempe tonight!
Please do a rig rundown of DIIV’s Andrew Bailey!! His shoegazy/grungy distortion tones are so thick and powerful but yet, so soothing and rich.
Dang, going to take a while to get used to Teppei not on that iconic Nash. As a tube and axe fx owner. Cool to see them switching to digital. Cant beat the simplicity.
Interesting what he mentions about tuners around the 14:15 mark. Back in the day, as a drummer, I was the band leader and I would ask my bandmates to all tune to the same tuner.
At 17:30 what happens to Perry? lmao, dude looks like he straight up zones out
Teppei basically built himself a PRS neck 🤣
Classic Teppei: "So I started looking at pickups"... builds own guitar.
Updated RR. Now we’re talking!
Oh I’m happy
This host… such a bro.
Nothing will ever beat a class A tubed amp. I don't care how good the technology is. Seems like Thrice are just using them out of ease for set-up when touring as everything is pre-set.
Anyone know if there's a full version of the opening performance?
Missing again the bass 😞
6:51 I've had an HX FX for 6 months now and still can't figure out how to properly program it. I don't know if I'm too stupid or too lazy to figure out all the subtle capabilities.
I’ve had one for close to a year and I’ve probably figured out 15% of its capabilities, keep trying and watch a ton of videos it helped me so much
The people want Eddie!
The Jag Baritone scale length is 28.5 inches
And the bassist???
Anyone know what song they play at the beginning.
Hurricane
what is the name of the song you are playing in the intro?
Hurricane from the album To Be Everywhere Is To Be Nowhere
How about showing the bass rig well? For EVERY PG Rig Rundown.
F yeah
I wish there were more color options for Dustin's signature. The Tabaco Burst isn't terrible, but the TV Yellow or w/e it is, is bleh, specially for a $3k guitar. A Grey would be nice.
You do know it's an EBMM right?
What’s that song they’re playing in the intro
17:42 looks like a Gibson grabber. 🤤
Eat that Albini?! I don’t think Steve’s watching any rig rundown anytime soon..
as someone who has actually had the pleasure of working with Steve several time over the years, he loves watching videos like this so there’s a good chance that he might🤷🏼♂️
That comment made me laugh
is the signature guitar giveaway over?
Rig Rundown with the Stones Ron and Keith or Pierre de Beauport please!!! Last chance i think
We were politely denied.
@@premierguitar that´a pity and very sad, but thank you for the answer
People acting like this is new that PG doesn't feature any bass in the rig rundowns 😅 is this your guys' first rodeo or what?
The guys acting like he has never seen a helix
No bass love?????
Shouldn't Rig Rundowngs include the bass rig? Who is with me?
"I have minimal woodworking skills."
*makes wooden pickup rings and perfectly sanded bevels in the body
Ok we're done here.
Those are pretty basic skills, just need the proper tools. Sanding is all about patience and elbow grease. Making the pickup rings would be simple - route out the center on a larger piece of wood, then cut out the outside dimensions and sand to size/smoothness if needed.
@@officialmetalwill r/whoosh
Dustin isn’t having a good time
The dude always seems like he needs cup of coffee lol
Eat that Albini? What? lol
dudebro
I spoke to Dustin once. He asked me what my plans were. I responded, “At 4 in the morning, you know where I’ll be.” I was then arrested for running red lights, asleep at the wheel. I yelled at my car, “I just want to BRAKE you down so badly.”
Pfff eat that Albini lol

no one cares
Do turnstile
#turnforteppei
why is this unlisted?
Didn’t show the pedalboards. 0/10
This interviewer needs to lay off the powder...
What a electric personality.. lost me 30 seconds in. Bless his heart
Fender is such an awesome company. Everyone who can tune a guitar gets their own signature model.
@Tjerk Whatcha talking about? That's .a MusicMan And everyone tunes using a pedal as few have perfect pitch.
Tom Segura plays guitar now? & lost hella weight? Dayuuuum okay 😆
you’re not funny.
No bass?!?!? LAME!!!!!!!!!!!
No bass.. once again.
Not my favorite rundown.... wouldn't hurt to suggest Yeah let's. hear that Boring
Not a good Rig Rundown at all..The cameraman was asleep or something...It was like an interview with these two players but no real clear shots of amps or pedals or anything..and a little bit of showing guitars....But all the other Rundowns are great.
Rough day? The link to the "clear shots of amps and pedals and anything" is available in the description. *Full Rig Details:* www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundowns/thrice-2021
Dustin's only using a Helix Floor unit, so there's not much to show. Their old rig rundown shows all their pedals.
are these guys still Christians?
Dustin has said he’s went through a confusing, to me, “deconstructing” thing. So I don’t think so. I don’t know about the other guys.
I think it was only Dustin who ever really declared himself a Christian.
His podcast content and his comments there suggest he’s more agnostic at this point and trying to find things that resonate as truth in all views.
Very postmodern.
Rundowns with modelers are so boring. Heres a custom shop signature model plugging into a processor, how original.
I stopped watching at 6:09. "No more tube amps".
If you were playing his rig and no one told you what it was, you couldn't tell the difference
Tubes for the studio. Kempers axe fx and pods for playing live. Welcome to the future pal.
Boring...
Dustin’s personality is as boring as every record since Vheissu. Seen them live… People literally fall asleep during their set until they play something old.
Dude, gtfoh with that negative attitude. Dustin's a quiet dude in his personal life. You want him up there telling Andrew Dice Clay jokes and being a jackass? If you can't grow with their sound, leave. Most of us have grown music wise with them over the years and have loved the journey
@@thedragonzord_ hey look, an internet tough guy. It’s an opinion. I have mine, you have yours. Read the comments, im not alone.
