As you guessed it, to keep things streamlined and hassle free for the road life, Gaskarth is using a Kemper Profiler, too. He only uses one setting—a clone of his Budda Superdrive 30 and to alter the tones or increase/decrease the gain, he just controls everything with the volume knobs on his guitar. As for bass amplification, Merrick uses an Avalon DI for his clean tone.

Perry Bean cut his teeth touring and playing in punk rock and hardcore bands, before he got his start in film. He worked his way up from lowly production assistant to become a producer, art director, and most recently, a music video director nominated for ACM, CMT, and CMA awards. Being Premier Guitar's Chief Videographer was a perfect fit for him, combining his two favorite things—guitars and cameras. Perry doesn't have free time, but his massive dog Beef pays his rent by being Perry's intern.
