Met Travis once...surprisingly enough... My best friend's mom is good friends with all of the dudes in the band, and got to speak with him once...SUPER nice dude.
I'm glad in the comments everyone who can't spell suddenly becomes a guitar expert. Baritone guitars have longer scale lengths specifically so they can be tuned lower without reduced string tension. Other guitars are more than capable of being set up for baritone tunings, but a baritone just makes it easier.
I hope we can get everyone to listen to coheed before they make a final album. I look at all these old comments from years ago, I hope the algorithm brings us together
Ah Travis. I met him at a bar one time at one of my dad's shows (really good friends with the guitarist in my pops' band haha) and damn was he chill. I was i think 15 at the time and it was so cool. We talked all about guitars and shit till literally 3 in the morning. Chillest dude i think ive ever talked to.
the description is lying slightly cos we don't see claudio, we see his tech kevin allen but it was nice of Travis to do his own gear with slight help from his guitar technician David Gibney
As of 2017 (at least at their Chicago show) Travis is using that blue SG for most of the show, when they played their Good Apollo Neverender tour. He switched to the gold top for Wake Up (probably due to the guitar's tone) and then the black LP for Islands, Delirium Trigger, and Keeping Secrets, if I remember correctly.
I first heard these guys from playing "Welcome Home" in _Rock Band 1_, it's such an awesome song and they're a really cool band. Also, Claudio has maybe some the coolest hair ever in my opinion
Rebecca is such a good interviewer, knows her gear and the bands she is speaking to. Knows when to listen and when to advance the conversation. She needs to come back
So at 14:49, he pulls out an SG. I was in edmonton going to their No World For Tomorrow concert. I brought my blue strat with a black 3-ply pick guard for them to sign. Travis took a second at me and said "that's a really nice guitar". I'm not saying he copied me, but that's a fine looking SG =P
i got the pick the claudio was using when he was warming up backstage at the 2011 Halifax NS show. the one on the left at 11:33. my friends got it for me because they knew due to other circumstances i had a super shitty time at the show. it was my prized possession and it was stolen a week later. i still think about it every day. :(
PLEASE UPDATE THIS WITH THE NEW TOUR!! We know they are still running axe fx but, the guitars have changed now! Also, you should do bass and drums, too!!!
I just think it's interesting how differently each player sets up his/her rig depending on what they feel is important. As much as I love music and the guitar, some are a little hard to follow, at least for a novice.
Claudio's tech gave me their setlist off the stage at bonnaroo 2008 after the show. Took it to the signing tent and they were about to leave cause they had to get to their bus so their manager took me to the front of the line and I have all their sigs on the setlist off the 2008 bonnaroo stage. Thanks bud!!! Well he really gave it to my girlfriend at the time because I thought her charm would work better on him than mine. ;P I hung in the shadows watching her sweet talk him.
Was at a concert. The techs were setting up and Dave came out to test a guitar and ripped a tasty lick real fast for a check and everyone started chanting "old guy old guy" tried to get him to shred some more, but he didn't.
They said in the vid that the EMGs are ancient history, but he was using an Explorer with EMGs 2 tours ago when I saw them. To my knowledge he's always been stock, or EMGs. He also used a strat on the Afterman Ascension tour, with either Lace or EMG pickups. (Couldnt see from my seat.) Crazy awesome video :D
This was fucking amazing. So glad to know whattheyre using cuz 1 theyre and awesome band 2 they sound awesome musically 3 theyre amazing live. Thank you for doing this!
This was cool but, I was really hoping to hear Claudio talk about this gear. But yeah still cool to watch nonetheless. Edit: nope.. just watched another video with Claudio... just nope.. His tech know what's up.
can you tell me the brand of those rack cases? they look good. floating shockmount goodness, they look like you could throw them off a building confidently
There is one famous contemporary exception to 6-strings which is the Epiphone Rob Flynn Love&Death V which was also a baritone. I find it really absurd that Premier Guitar censors the curse words, this is not a major network broadcast after all!
Rebecca is DEAD ON with her questions. When anything unusual comes up she is on it. Example: the baritone. Rebecca: "what's the tuning?" Great job.
Hahaha!
+1 AlaskanAssassin She seems very knowledgeable tho.
Explorer766 yea, she's like of one of 4 real women on planet earth.
For real, she knows her shit, it's a beautiful thing. She asked about pickups, setups and model/make preference. She's badass.
Watch the Meshuggah video. She's so intelligent in that one. The tech gets the other guitarist's instrument: "Does he play in the same tuning?"
Travis is a lot like a kid that wants to show you his toy collection. Loved the enthusiasm. haha
Damn, she's asking solid questions without missing a beat.
Seriously, this is the first one of these I've watched where it felt like the host actually knew what to ask and what was unnecessary bullshit.
Bc she actually knows her shit
Rebecca dirks should be the head interviewer. Perfect questions.
I love how you can hear Claudio singing/playing in the background
Never got bored of this interview. Well done Rebecca. Watched everything
man, Travis was probably the most entertaining guy so far on these rig run downs! Seems like such a chill guy!
Please do another rig rundown with Coheed and Cambria. I'd love to see an update of their rigs, this time including Zach Cooper their bassist
I wish at the end of every video they show like one song from the set
That would be epic and way more logical
"I go high, I'm Dave motherfucking Gibney!"

i miss her so much
Gonna see them in 11 days! Can't wait!
Travis seems to be a very nice guy. Awesome rundown. One of the best ones so far.
Ah Travis. I met him at a bar one time at one of my dad's shows (really good friends with the guitarist in my pops' band haha) and damn was he chill. I was i think 15 at the time and it was so cool.

It was the best show I've ever been to.

omg PREMIER! I LOVE YOU FOR THIS!!! FINALLY
Damn - that was great! I love the Rig Rundown. Rebecca is freakin' awesome!! Trav is so freakin cool!
always disappointed when it isn't the players themselves doing the rundown
props to travis for being there
Just saw Coheed last month in denver and it's kinda cool hearing more from the guy I saw frantically running on and off stage for the guitar swaps.
As of 2017 (at least at their Chicago show) Travis is using that blue SG for most of the show, when they played their Good Apollo Neverender tour. He switched to the gold top for Wake Up (probably due to the guitar's tone) and then the black LP for Islands, Delirium Trigger, and Keeping Secrets, if I remember correctly.
Travis uses the same picks as me! I absolutely love those picks so much.
Super excited to hear that!!! Paul is a modern guitar god!
I've got EMGs in my 95 SG Classic. It has such crazy bite. It's a good way to make sure your guitar always stands out in a mix.
I first heard these guys from playing "Welcome Home" in _Rock Band 1_, it's such an awesome song and they're a really cool band. Also, Claudio has maybe some the coolest hair ever in my opinion
I attended that show. It was great!
Rebecca is such a good interviewer, knows her gear and the bands she is speaking to. Knows when to listen and when to advance the conversation. She needs to come back
Great video, I've been looking forward to this, but would have loved to see Zach's bass rig too!
Literally just got done batchin' about wanting to hear about their guitars on *True Ugly* and *FINALLY!*
Travis' stupid smile and wave just made my day that much better
Love the fact that you can hear Claudio in the back.
OMFG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS.
2:50 Claudio's laugh - "Hahaha!"
So at 14:49, he pulls out an SG.
I was in edmonton going to their No World For Tomorrow concert. I brought my blue strat with a black 3-ply pick guard for them to sign. Travis took a second at me and said "that's a really nice guitar". I'm not saying he copied me, but that's a fine looking SG =P
Rebecca knows her stuff. Doesn't BS around. Get's us the right info. Good job
i got the pick the claudio was using when he was warming up backstage at the 2011 Halifax NS show. the one on the left at 11:33. my friends got it for me because they knew due to other circumstances i had a super shitty time at the show.
it was my prized possession and it was stolen a week later. i still think about it every day. :(
Great questions by the interviewee. Every question I had you asked (:
PLEASE UPDATE THIS WITH THE NEW TOUR!! We know they are still running axe fx but, the guitars have changed now! Also, you should do bass and drums, too!!!
I listen to all this gear reviews and gig rundowns all day and I dont even play guitar. Is just the background noise for my hw
I am not sure why, but I respect the hell outta that!!
I do play bass but im not into gear and stuff
I just think it's interesting how differently each player sets up his/her rig depending on what they feel is important. As much as I love music and the guitar, some are a little hard to follow, at least for a novice.
Dave Robles
Yeah for sure. I will defo check out orange amps after watching this vid.
oh Travis' guitar guy always looks so hilarious and epic when he's up pre-show setting up the sound.
12:27 laughed when he said "illegal wood".
They both have specific guitars for sentry the defiant that makes sense to me because of just how much that song stands out
Awesome! Thanks
Oh snap! how am I just finding this now?
No worries, we got a RR with Dustie and Paul coming out in two weeks!
Claudio's tech gave me their setlist off the stage at bonnaroo 2008 after the show. Took it to the signing tent and they were about to leave cause they had to get to their bus so their manager took me to the front of the line and I have all their sigs on the setlist off the 2008 bonnaroo stage. Thanks bud!!! Well he really gave it to my girlfriend at the time because I thought her charm would work better on him than mine. ;P I hung in the shadows watching her sweet talk him.
Travis is adorably awkward and I love him.
Aye she is right on the money , knows her stuff and sharp as a tack , she does the best rundowns by far ,
YES! FINALLY!
What gauge strings are used on the double neck guitar, top neck and bottom neck?
Coheed and Awesomeness!
DAMN, this host is amazing!
rebecca was amazing for 21:48.....the guys were ok ...great interview...enjoyed it
Was at a concert. The techs were setting up and Dave came out to test a guitar and ripped a tasty lick real fast for a check and everyone started chanting "old guy old guy" tried to get him to shred some more, but he didn't.
They said in the vid that the EMGs are ancient history, but he was using an Explorer with EMGs 2 tours ago when I saw them. To my knowledge he's always been stock, or EMGs. He also used a strat on the Afterman Ascension tour, with either Lace or EMG pickups. (Couldnt see from my seat.) Crazy awesome video :D
Dusty from Between the Buried and me at 12:04
I used to be the biggest Coheed fan ever. Glad to see they're still rocking. Also, glad to hear they're phasing out the EMG's. haha
Yeah, a Muse rig rundown would be pretty cool!
Travis is awesome!!
She has an amazing job
Awesome video guys!
You guys should try to get some Rig Rundowns done on the new
Papa Roach + Escape The Fate tour
Thank you for this, the bareknuckle pups are a suprise to me.
A friend of mine actually won that guitar a few years back when they came to Orlando.
2:49 "Hahaha!" -Travis Great words of wisdom.
Those explorer's are beautiful.
This was fucking amazing.
So glad to know whattheyre using cuz 1 theyre and awesome band
2 they sound awesome musically
3 theyre amazing live.
Thank you for doing this!
I love Travis
its not about impressing people, it's about what works best for you
Milo spotting 0:40. Hell yea Descendents!
Good to see Dustie from BTBAM at 12:07... Shame we couldn't get a Rig Rundown for them.
big up for using collar mic's, I could hear everything clearly. kthanksbye.
This was cool but, I was really hoping to hear Claudio talk about this gear. But yeah still cool to watch nonetheless.
Edit: nope.. just watched another video with Claudio... just nope..
His tech know what's up.
FINALLY!!!!
travis is so awesome.
Travis is the man.
What I like about Rebecca is that she really knows her shit unlike some other folks
Second guy is nice and actually gives thanks for the gear
this was posted on my birthday! its likes they knew....
Followed this tour for a week including the Des Moines show, most everyone I talked to post show thought BTBAM shouldn't have been on the tour at all
Cherry explorer neck pickup installed upside down?
I vaguely remember Claudio playing a Minarik Medusa, whatever happened to that awesome guitar?
anybody else notice dustie waring during the black les paul part?
YESSSSSS FINALLY
Love that Rebecca!
Do one for Josh! Ive always wondered about his kits
can you tell me the brand of those rack cases? they look good. floating shockmount goodness, they look like you could throw them off a building confidently
At 04:53 he states the Taylor uses their Infinity pickup system, did he mean Expression system?
the lapel mics make such a difference!
There is one famous contemporary exception to 6-strings which is the Epiphone Rob Flynn Love&Death V which was also a baritone. I find it really absurd that Premier Guitar censors the curse words, this is not a major network broadcast after all!
Any chance of posting the link to the video. Saw it once on youtube and was never able to find it again. thanks
when are you uploading the btbam rig rundown?
Any plans for a Matt Bellamy or Chris Wolstenholme rig rundown?
please do a richie sambora rig rundown!!
The string spacing is wild looking on the red lp
Is the white explorer Claudios first explorer? I've seen early Coheed videos with Claud using only 1 white explorer.
Love how Rebecca says "Alright!" Ahaha
Any chance of a rig rundown with Queens of the Stone Age?
