I like how Andrew seems to be discovering his rig as the interview goes along. It's proof that you don't need to be gear specific to crank out badass songs and tone. PG: ...tell me about this SG... AS: ...(stares at SG)...yea.... PG: ...tell us about your board with the Line6 HX stomp AS:....(stares a board).....yea....
He's shockingly humble. Had Wolfmother come out when rock still reigned supreme, they would have been worldwide superstars. Iconic guitar riffs, and iconic vocals. He still kills it live to this day.
I'm really excited to see this rig rundown, also I wanna say I'm so happy you managed to get Andrew himself to show off his gear, I remember when he used an old SG with a bigsby back in the day.
I also remember that, I think that was the one he played in the video for Woman if I recall correctly but it's been awhile since I've seen that one but I do know what you're talking about
had the pleasure of meeting him recently in Adelaide, such a cool dude and super down to earth, Andrew never disappoints live, great band and great dude!
Was at this show and kept wondering where his amps were. Then I came home and found out PG filmed a rig rundown and got excited. I didn't know I'd be checking UA-cam every day for 3 months. lol
Wolfmother/Andrew is a "must see" event. Their live shows are late 60's epic of what rock stars really were. He plays very little lead on the studio stuff vs the Hendrix experience that he is able to channel live. My buddy & I were fortunate to see him in one of the most iconic spots on the planet in The Tabernacle. He had his full rigs back then & blew our brains out with his raw intensity & much unexpected virtuoso. For those of you who don't know who Seasick Steve is-look into him. His "I Started Out With Nothing But I Still Have Most Of It Left" show is legend.
Wolfmother - one band that started with a huge following, songs in shows and movies, and playing festivals and arenas , to playing in front of a couple hundred people.
Awesome RR ! I guess Andrews pedalboard is the same for lots of working musicians that must hit the road where you will find all kind of troubles, worst case scenario type of pubs and venues and thats what it is to be on the road with your band, so respect for Andrew and Wolfmother ! Keep on rocking, keep on rolling !! Great video Premier Guitar cheers from South America !
Debating getting one myself and struggle with the fact that it’s essentially 6yr old computer tech. It’s clearly still relevant and more power than I could ever use!
remember when these guys were "saving rock music", winning grammys, getting name dropped by everyone, playing huge shows and festivals... then the 2 other guys left and the record label decided to put their money behind tame impala instead
@@JoelyPera yes, my band were also talking to modular records about signing at the same time as tame impala... wolfmother were modulars cash cow, and they were scared they were going to lose that when the other members left... tame impala at the time had the same sort of old school 70s riff thing going on, which was proving to be popular for the label... so they backed them instead...
I saw them live with the original lineup at a small venue in the US and I can say that the bass / keyboard player was out of this world. I would imagine that the other two players were a big part of the sound and songwriting especially considering how much better the first album is than all the others.
@@MOONfacekillasaw the original lineup at outside lands back in 09 and they sounded so fucking huge. They covered riders on the storm and baba o Reilly. Def makes more sense now cause those first two albums were gnarly.
Ok no excuses now. This is a man that we all associate with having a row of Marshall full stacks or vox ac30s behind him, and now he’s getting the same exact tone out of a line 6 helix I never wanted to say this in my life, but I think technologies finally catching up
Love how PG somehow managed to find a host worse than Perry.. Immediately makes a "joke" about the band being Andrew's, which doesn't seem to go well.. so, quick edit.. Then the host grabs another guitar, while asking to do so.. which also doesn't seem to go well, so, quick edit to Andrew holding said guitar... Just give John more hosting! He's actually good at it, and a great musician, and knows what he's talking about..
Was never into Wolfmother but I do enjoy a couple of their tunes even as a huge Mike Patton/FNM fan. 🙃. Andrew seems like a good dude and quite laid back. That economy rig is something else -- getting some damn good tone from the HX Stomp.
I have the full size Spark Boost and it has become always on for me, occasionally adjusting the volume to achieve unity gain when engaging different pedals. On a somewhat related note, I recently saw the great Reverend Peyton and his Big Damn Band and noticed he had like eight separate full size equalizer pedals on his Pedalboard. I asked his tech about it and as I suspected, he was using a separate equalizer for each of his guitars, which are largely hollow and maybe semi hollow vintage electrics and a couple of resonators. And the Rev’s tone is one of the best I’ve heard. Did not notice the equalizer set up the couple of other times I’ve seen them.
I'm a big fan; I have a Wolfmother tribute band, and it was hard to emulate his guitar sound. I prefer the Ampero against the HX, but now I know why he modified the giant pedal board he used to have. Many guitar players are looking for the most practical setup on their gear.
Looks like a stock Vox AC30 with 3 options. Really nothing special it seems. But you gotta have a lot of trust in the PA systems playing smaller gigs like that. Unless they decided to bring their own PA on the road. Mostly looks like small gigs, a step below theaters. Also looks like those are hired US musicians from another band.
@@nickhem12yeah honestly this seems like a budget cut. Another commented how they got dropped from their main label, other guys left. This is the only way he’s gonna make money. I’m sure any festivals he’s booked for, are going to provide a backline. Even theaters will have a Deluxe Reverb or Twin. A smaller bar type venue like that, you just have to pray they have a decent PA.
Man you can really almost feel the tonality and resonance on the White Falcon during the live performance of Apple Tree. I need to stop putting off getting a Gretsch.
"something magical happens after the first headstock break" 😂😂 yeah you stop caring as much about breaking it. 😂 That's about it. I've played both and I'll take unbroken any day. Some of these guys with their guitar myths are really funny.
blame Kiss and the bands that put up fake walls of Marshalls for that perception you just need a good tone and good songs doesnt matter where it comes from
Nice to see his rig. It’s a bit sad cause Wolfmother could have gone so far. I don’t know what went wrong after Cosmic Egg and his featuring with Slash. Bad choices maybe It seems he has so much to complain about
It took 5 years to make Cosmic Egg which didn't have any hits and at that point rock had shifted to the indie stuff. That and he kept firing the band members and didn't really have anywhere to go sonically.
just shows thast digtal is the way to go for touring musicians. I know boomers will unlikely agree :) Satchel, John Mayer (partly), Mark knopfler, Tonsof Metal Bands... all go digital
It’s tragic, what costs, Covid, etc have done to stage rigs … 😭😢. Sorry, but the tone in this video is shite. Mind you, I watched a cool doco on the GnR St Louis riot, just before this - so I understand not wanting your best gear on tour …

you forgot the wireless. Booo, Ya I will look it up
First wolfmother album is 10/10, hands down
Every song. Banger
it was the rhythm section. the bass/organ player was the star
I still think that album is slept on … front to back all killer
until Jimmy Page completely stole their act
I like how Andrew seems to be discovering his rig as the interview goes along. It's proof that you don't need to be gear specific to crank out badass songs and tone.
PG: ...tell me about this SG...
AS: ...(stares at SG)...yea....
PG: ...tell us about your board with the Line6 HX stomp
AS:....(stares a board).....yea....
😂😂
It’s proof he’s not good enough to care. 😉
@@swedeinla better than you obviously
I’m honestly surprised that Wolfmother hasn’t been done earlier, they’re awesome and Stockdale always gets such insane tones
He's shockingly humble. Had Wolfmother come out when rock still reigned supreme, they would have been worldwide superstars. Iconic guitar riffs, and iconic vocals. He still kills it live to this day.
I'm really excited to see this rig rundown, also I wanna say I'm so happy you managed to get Andrew himself to show off his gear, I remember when he used an old SG with a bigsby back in the day.

We appreciate the dedication! 😎
Tell me what amp is it? I just seen pedals in the video.
@@joelsmith4816 He doesn't use an amp. It's just the Line 6 HX.
Wolfmother is the perfect thing to say really loud at random times for no reason
This interviewer is steering the ship so well! Great job!
Ted does a great job! Thank you!
Furtunately...since the interviewee seems slightly stoned 😀
@@PeterEkdahl2 slightly? he left his trans sister in his guitar case?
MF literally sells out every night, no manager, no labels. Just a stomp box and 2 other dudes, a real guitar hero.
Great rig rundown! I missed his '75 tobacco sunburst SG.
He’s so quirky and odd. I fricken love it. Then slams the stage with crazy riffs and a massive voice.
Mike Patton: “Wolfmother you suck!”
I still remember that part 😂
It was more like. "what the hell is that shit... "Wolfmother?" Who the fuck listens to this! HAHA
"Can I get an amen!?"
He wasn't wrong...

i cannot stay away from clicking a video with a good SG Guitar of Devilry honor showing
Wolfmother - one band that started with a huge following, songs in shows and movies, and playing festivals and arenas , to playing in front of a couple hundred people.
sounds like they're bigger in Europe than they are here these days
they're huge even here in Spain. I remember they were closing down a festival and the gig was incredible, both the band and the vibe of the crowd
the original lineup was what was great about them
Awesome RR ! I guess Andrews pedalboard is the same for lots of working musicians that must hit the road where you will find all kind of troubles, worst case scenario type of pubs and venues and thats what it is to be on the road with your band, so respect for Andrew and Wolfmother !

Used to have (almost) his exact rig with a 1973 Gibson SG into an Orange AD30 stack. Sounded massive!
I’ve never heard him speak, had no idea he was Australian! He’s got one of my favorite guitar tones, ever
Just goes to show you how insanely good those HX stomps are. I LOVE mine to pieces.
Debating getting one myself and struggle with the fact that it’s essentially 6yr old computer tech. It’s clearly still relevant and more power than I could ever use!
I see mike patton now "what year are we in" 😂😂😂
This was awesome! I love Wolfmother!
remember when these guys were "saving rock music", winning grammys, getting name dropped by everyone, playing huge shows and festivals... then the 2 other guys left and the record label decided to put their money behind tame impala instead
Damn, is that really what happened?
@@JoelyPera yes, my band were also talking to modular records about signing at the same time as tame impala... wolfmother were modulars cash cow, and they were scared they were going to lose that when the other members left... tame impala at the time had the same sort of old school 70s riff thing going on, which was proving to be popular for the label... so they backed them instead...

Label made a great choice with Tame Impala
So there you go. If a HX Stomp Modeller is good enough for a guitar band like Wolfmother then modellers are good.
Ok no excuses now. This is a man that we all associate with having a row of Marshall full stacks or vox ac30s behind him, and now he’s getting the same exact tone out of a line 6 helix I never wanted to say this in my life, but I think technologies finally catching up
It’s not the exact same tone. It is similar though.
And yet this is excactly the kind of band I want to see with real amps. Not with modeling, however great that might sound.
It's not the same- vibe suffers.
Road crew, load in, load out, travel, time, and back line costs and issues go away; he keeps one tone and focuses on his show. Makes sense to me.
We travel with 5 amps all the time, it isn't that bad. @@seeyouinhale2317
Can you guys get a hold of Chris Cheney from The Living End for a rig rundown?? That would be epic....
What a nice guy!
Love how PG somehow managed to find a host worse than Perry..
Immediately makes a "joke" about the band being Andrew's, which doesn't seem to go well.. so, quick edit..
Then the host grabs another guitar, while asking to do so.. which also doesn't seem to go well, so, quick edit to Andrew holding said guitar...
Just give John more hosting! He's actually good at it, and a great musician, and knows what he's talking about..
There's literally nothing wrong with Perry though
Yeah, I'm not a fan of this host either. He seems very outta place, and his interest is forced/Fake. Bring back the RR trio
Well that was like pulling teeth..ay..?🤣
probably just not too worried about gear. Crank it and rock out!
Neat and humble interview. Loved it!
Their first album is a rock and roll gem
Andrew is quite the conversationalist, I lost track of how many times he said "yeah"'lol
Was never into Wolfmother but I do enjoy a couple of their tunes even as a huge Mike Patton/FNM fan. 🙃. Andrew seems like a good dude and quite laid back. That economy rig is something else -- getting some damn good tone from the HX Stomp.
Saw them at the Detroit show end of last year and it was just fantastic. Sound was amazing.
I have the full size Spark Boost and it has become always on for me, occasionally adjusting the volume to achieve unity gain when engaging different pedals. On a somewhat related note, I recently saw the great Reverend Peyton and his Big Damn Band and noticed he had like eight separate full size equalizer pedals on his Pedalboard.

First 2 Wolfmother albums are fantastic
I’ve seen him live a few times, and it sounds massive in the room! He played gold les Paul the whole night
great band
Underrated band and riffs!
Especially “The Earths rotation around the sun”
Wow! I can't imagine Seasick Steve surfing. That's sick!
Okay, Andrew Stockdale was clearly high 😀
He was clearly ooooooooout of it… idk if he was stoned or drunk or stone drunk but it made it such a boring rundown… barely watchable
You think? 😂
I'm a big fan; I have a Wolfmother tribute band, and it was hard to emulate his guitar sound. I prefer the Ampero against the HX, but now I know why he modified the giant pedal board he used to have. Many guitar players are looking for the most practical setup on their gear.
I would have loved to learn about his patches and hiw he uses the stomp. Great rig rundown, though.
no questions about the helix- curious to hear what kind of amp is being emulated and whether or not he loaded in IRs
Looks like a stock Vox AC30 with 3 options. Really nothing special it seems. But you gotta have a lot of trust in the PA systems playing smaller gigs like that. Unless they decided to bring their own PA on the road. Mostly looks like small gigs, a step below theaters. Also looks like those are hired US musicians from another band.
‘What’s the pick-up’? Dunno…. 😂
Great 2001 reference!
Maybe im reading too deep into it, but he seems a little bit depressed. I see a man that hides his sadness behind his humor.
Kinda got that too. Saw original lineup at a huge festival in 09 and they sounded gigantic and now modelers and no band.
@@nickhem12yeah honestly this seems like a budget cut. Another commented how they got dropped from their main label, other guys left. This is the only way he’s gonna make money.

Are those picks the Ernie Ball Everlast .88s or 1.5? Seems like the yellow one in the interview is the yellow 1.5
What a nice guy. Cool band!
"um yyeah yeah yeh ergh'
awesome thank you!!
I want an Andrew Stockdale signature sg
Man you can really almost feel the tonality and resonance on the White Falcon during the live performance of Apple Tree.
I need to stop putting off getting a Gretsch.
lol rigrundown has to tell him what guitar hes using, classic.
Hey, another band that should have been done forever ago! Do electric wizard
what a tough interview....
12:54 the reality is the Boss may be every where but it’s not going to break. That’s why it’s awesome for touring.
Ted is great at these, man 👌🏻
For Pete's sake Gibson, c'mon, give that man that SG! Brand promo.. Seems like a fitting payment. 👌😉
Why is Wolfmother even still around?
Kids, just say no to drugs 😅
Which Amp does he uses in the HX, does anybody knows? Thanks
Is that the normal sg or a custom shop? I really what that 61 reissue but don’t know if go standard or custom shop
88 mm, that’s one 3,5 inches thick plectrum! 😂
"something magical happens after the first headstock break" 😂😂 yeah you stop caring as much about breaking it. 😂 That's about it. I've played both and I'll take unbroken any day. Some of these guys with their guitar myths are really funny.
I didn't know Wolfmother was still a thing. Good on them!
Why does Andrew seem so lost?
Maybe jet lag?
maybe drugs?
Some dudes just aren’t like way into gear
That stage looks so miserable without any amps
blame Kiss and the bands that put up fake walls of Marshalls for that perception you just need a good tone and good songs doesnt matter where it comes from
@@Damblan The price of touring and shipping gear aroud is also expensive as fuck post-covid.
Didnt know they was ozzies. 🤘
Nice to see his rig. It’s a bit sad cause Wolfmother could have gone so far. I don’t know what went wrong after Cosmic Egg and his featuring with Slash. Bad choices maybe

They aren’t.
is the organ player gone ?
Been gone a long time. These guys are the rhythm section from Electric Citizen who I assume he only hired for the US dates.
Still smoking :)
when you say "amps and pedalboard" ,what amps? computers are not amps .
If it amplifies sound, its an amp
🎩
😁
👕👍Great!
👖
"What strings are you using?" Umm, Ernie Ball 10 - 42. Ummm, yeah.....
i always thought he looked like a wolf's mother
let the host talk man ...
Not a fan of Ted Drozdowskis interview style, we need more Chris Kies.
Aww why not have John do the interview this guys boring asf.
Very much agreed. Creepy cool Dad vibe
mericans 🤣

Wow, who knew Carrot Top was a closet stoner rocker.
Definitely thought this was Carrot Top
88mm 😂
How stoned can you be? Or is it just a lack of braincells?
He's on Aussie, this is typical of Aussies. Just laid back, trust me!
Australian Carrottop...
He kinda looks like carrot top a lil lol awesome band tho
First!
Why are guitar players so awkward?
boo wolfmother
Unwatchable.
Oh NO Another digital inears creep ! Good for him not the Audients !
