Rig Rundown: Hall & Oates’ John Oates and Shane Theriot

Badge
Video

The guitar duo shares the vintage-meets-modern setups they use to craft their soul-tinged rock that still packs arenas.

Shane Theriot’s No. 1 is a 2014 Gerard Melancon Aged Artist with a roasted maple neck, rosewood fretboard, Gotoh bridge, and vintage Kluson tuners. The guitar is strung D’Addario NYXL (.011–.049) strings and tuned down a half step.

Thanks to techs Frank Robbins and Justin Stabler.
