Rig Rundown: GA-20

Two guitarists, no bass player, and not a single GA-20 onstage.

PG’s John Bohlinger met up with Cody Nilsen and Matt Stubbs of GA-20 at the Vinyl Tap in Nashville. The band takes its name from the Gibson GA-20, which they’ve now retired from the road—what’s left is two guitarists, no bassist, and a stack of amps that never get switched off. Have a look at some quick highlights below, and tune into the new Rig Rundown for all the details.
