Rig Rundown: Moon Taxi

Discover how double-cuts, modeling amps, and a baker’s dozen stomps energize the live rigs for this Nashville guitar duo.

Moon Taxi’s frontman, Trevor Terndrup, is a fan of symmetry as you can see with his No. 1 being a Gibson Les Paul Doublecut Classic P-90 goldtop that has been his main squeeze since 2012 when it replaced an emerald green LP Doublecut Classic. It’s been a true road warrior until a recent gig in Seattle where Trevor found the neck pickup complete dislodged from its cavity and resting against the strings. He’s since replaced the necessary screws and it’s flying at full strength again. All of his guitars use Ernie Ball Slinky .009–.042 strings.
