Silversun Pickups’ Brian Aubert

The band’s frontman/guitarist brings it during “Well Thought Out Twinkles” with a 1994 Epiphone Sheraton—his go-to guitar that splits time with a ’65 Firebird. Recently featured in PG’s “Opening Notes,” we found out that the Sheraton was originally bandmate Christopher Guanlao’s guitar, and since taking over ownership Aubert has since replaced the pickups with a set of Seymour Duncan Antiquity humbuckers. Aubert on the pickup swap: “I love playing hollowbodies in an untraditional way,” says Aubert. “The feedback is part of our sound.”
