Bassist Dan Briggs exclusively uses his Spector NS-2000/5 Dan Briggs Signature bass. It’s modeled after the NS-2000/5 model that Briggs has owned and played since he was 16 (that one stays at home and in the studio). The bass features neck-through construction with a 3-piece rock-maple neck, a rosewood fretboard, maple body wings, and a quilted-maple top. Spector fitted the bass with a pair of SSD Dual humbuckers as well as the company’s TonePump Jr. circuit.

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.
