The Nashville rockers played a three-night stint celebrating their new Sub Pop album, Losing, in their hometown at the Mercy Lounge and invited PG along for the ride.
Alicia Bognanno’s No. 1 is this Bluesman Vintage, which is strung with D’Addario NYXL .010–.046 strings.
For a change of pace, Alicia Bognanno brings a Fender Duo-Sonic as a backup. She swapped out the bridge pickup for an unidentified Seymour Duncan humbucker.
Alicia Bognanno runs a 1971 Fender Bassman head through a Marshall 2x12 cab loaded with stock Celestion speakers.
On her pedalboard, Alicia Bognanno starts simple with a Boss TU-3 tuner. From there, the signal hits a Greer Amps Little Samson Distortion, EarthQuaker Devices Acapulco Gold, Rogue Analog Delay, and an EarthQuaker Devices Ghost Echo Reverb. She also keeps a Stomp Under Foot Violet Menace onhand for backup fuzz. A MXR DC Brick supplies the juice.
Clayton Parker’s main guitar is his early 2000s Fender Jazzmaster. The one upgrade is the addition of a Mastery bridge that helped to stabilize some tuning issues. The Jazzmaster stays strung with D’Addario EXL115BT strings.
Clayton Parker’s backup guitar is an early 2000s Squier Mustang that had its pickups swapped out and tremolo bridge upgraded by a previous owner.
A Fender DeVille 4x10 serves as Clayton Parker’s main amp. And an identical sits in waiting as a backup.
Not surprisingly, Clayton Parker falls in line with his Bully bandmates and keeps his board tight. The board includes a Boss TU-3 tuner, MXR Super Badass Distortion, Electro-Harmonix Black Russian Big Muff Pi, MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay, EarthQuaker Devices Bows, MXR Phase 90, and an Electro-Harmonix Neo Clone Chorus. An MXR DC Brick powers all.
Reece Lazarus’ main axe is his Fender American Deluxe P Bass in Olympic White. He keeps it strung with D’Addario EPS165 Pro Steels.
Reece Lazarus’ backup is a Fender American Standard P Bass with an added Fender N3 Jazz bass pickup in the bridge position.
Reece Lazarus runs a Gallien-Krueger 800RB head into a Fender 8x10 cab.
Much like Ashley, Reece Lazarus starts his board with a Boss TU-3 tuner. After that, the signal hits a ProCo RAT, Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Bass Pi Distortion, EarthQuaker Devices Tone Job, and a Tech 21 SansAmp Bass Driver DI.
