The four-day festival takes over Chicago’s lakefront park and turns up the volume thanks to Ryan Adams, Arcade Fire, Muse, Ron Gallo, Warpaint, Cage the Elephant, and others.
Cage the Elephant’s Brad Shultz
The CTE guitarist (and brother to singer Matt Shultz) is a longtime Mustang user. He brought the rock ’n’ roll to the festival with this new-but-beat-up Mustang, which is completely stock aside from a mod where the bridge pickup is connected directly to the output. He opts for this live setup because the guitar’s switches often get in the way while he thrashes onstage and in the crowd. (When he’s in the studio, Brad has his tech rewire the guitar so he has all tonal options at his disposal.)
