- One of Americana’s rising stars (and a son of an outlaw legend) goes deep on his vintage Gibson, using a dual-amp setup, and why he eschews most pedals.

Don't Miss a Rundown: bit.ly/RIgRundownENL
Lukas Nelson and bassist Corey McCormick hung with PG’s John Bohlinger before their rocking show at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium to talk gear.
Lukas Nelson’s No. 1 is this 1956 Gibson Les Paul Jr. This mostly stock Jr has a MojoAxe bridge to help with intonation. Gibson is currently making a signature replica of this guitar. It stays strung with DR Pure Blues (.011-.014-.018-.028-.038-.050). Nelson’s leather guitar straps are made by Cody Hixon.

I have a hat that belonged to my grandfather: He had it signed by Hank; then my dad had it signed by Willie, Waylon and Hank Jr; and I had it signed by Lukas Nelson, Shooter Jennings, and Hank 3. It’s a prized possession.
John is just as excited to say ‘high miles’ every time. I wait for it now.
Willie or not, I'd bet a nickel to a dollar that Lukas first reaction in seeing his J200 autographed was, What the hell!!!!
Unusual situation where the guitarist has basically no pedals, and bass player has a significant board
John Bohlinger should never laugh again
John "what a great segway" Bohlinger 👍
Shout out to Rio Grand pickups out of Houston Texas ... they are AMAZING .... I have one in my Strat and one in my Tele .... if you are looking for a little Texas mojo ... check them out.
Love this band, I first saw Lukas in Alexandria, LA with his family and their bands. I saw them at New Orleans Jazz Fest last year and they were awesome. I always wanted a 1957 Les Paul Junior and finally bought one after hearing Lukas play his 56 model. Thank you so much for helping out the farmers, this year and last year has been hard on farmers because of the tariffs and all of the spring flooding. I think the Nelson’s are some of the finest people in America and they always show love and do acts of kindness and raise money for charities to help people. Please go see them and help support them as they support others in the world. Thank you. 👍🙏🎸✌️😎

13's !!! You would destroy my 9's every two songs !
Holy crap, what a super humble guy. Happy to pull in his tech to explain the details about the gear, no BS. And the stuff with the local farmers is a very cool thing. Saw these guys backing Neil Young recently and they did a fantastic job. Lukas is some player
Lukas is such a down-to-earth kid. Very likable. What a blessing to inherit one's father's talent to such a degree. Keep going Lukas!
I saw them in alaska back I January. That poor tech was running back and forth almost hanging from the side of the damn stage. He was getting frustrated so I finally yelled out "you're doing the lords work man" to make him feel better lol. Lukas heard me say that
So happy to be surprised by this RR this morning! I've known about Lukas Nelson & the Promise of the Real for years but earlier this year I caught their performance on Austin City Limits. Then, 2 weeks ago, I saw them live in Bangor, Maine and I immediately became a huge fan of their music!
Mr
Saw Lukas & band last night. Incredibly talented & delivered an an amazing show!
Increasingly Popular Opinion:
