PG’s Chris Kies hangs with The Wild Feathers’ Ricky Young, Taylor Burns, Daniel Donato, and Joel King before their sold-out Ryman gig to chat about beat-up Gibson acoustics, road-worn hollowbodies, dreamy Telecasters, and rugged pawnshop basses.
Lead singer/guitarist Ricky Young dabbles in the electric world, but for the sold-out show at the church of country music he went strictly acoustic. Seen above is his “A-Team”-a 2000s Gibson Custom Shop Southern Jumbo. He’s only had it about two years, but claims to have logged over 200 gigs with it so far.
Guitarist Taylor Burns believes playing onstage is like going into battle, so his most trusted ally is his stock 2007 Gibson Custom Nashville 1963 Historic Block ES-335 reissue. He does own a vintage ’60s 335, but he feels this one plays better and stays in tune longer.
Guitar-slinging assassin Daniel Donato joined the band this year as lead guitarist and only needed this Fender Custom Shop ’63 Telecaster to rock the Ryman. He’s swapped in a Glendale Guitars bridge plate because it allows him to emulate Don Rich by picking closer to the saddles for more dynamic playing and tones. Another upgrade he opted for was implementing Emerson saddles because they’re indestructible and help intonation issues. And he also dropped in a pair of Seymour Duncan pickups-a BG1400 neck pickup and an Antiquity I bridge model. Donato uses Ernie Ball Cobalt .010-.046 strings.

Jack White rig rundown?
So happy you guys finally did The Wild Feathers 😊 now you have to do The Sheepdogs, Ghost and Temples
Chris does great RR's! And the Wild Feather guys are cool too, definitely gonna have to check 'em out.
It's cool that we get to see all their rig but it would be cooler if we could hear it as they explain.
The Ryman doesn't allow sound because of their tight pre-show limitations (only reserved for band's soundcheck after 4:30 pm because they allow tours of the venue until that point). Sorry, but trust us, we try to get every band to plug in.
Fair enough.
Wildfeathers are one of the best bands out there in terms of songwriting.
Nice rundown, PG! I have a request: I saw a Guitar Center Session on Direct TV with Dwight Yoakum. His lead guitar player had an absolutely smokin' tone.
Chris does the best RR's!
A540 John does
I feel like whenever Perry does a RR the gear is usually the best and most interesting
Nice job interviewing
guys do a rig rundown for guns n roses on their reunion tour
'58 Supro Dual Tone at 9:17. Cool
Bell and Howell, AMP!? at 10:55. Cool too.
Those projector amps sound good but cost way more than they need to... but if you can afford it, go for it. Love that Princeton for sure. Daniel is THE player in this band. Killer tone and playing. Super nice guy also.
I grabbed mine for 180.. cost 600 to mod it but still cheaper then a Princeton. Bullet proof too. I have clips on my channel
What do you hear that makes you gravitate towards? EVERY TIME HAHAHA
That SJ looks like the Sheryl Crow Custom shop without the pickup model
I wish we could hear the guitars being played through the pedal boards and amps to hear the effects and tones
The Ryman doesn't allow sound because of their tight pre-show limitations (only reserved for band's soundcheck after 4:30 pm because they allow tours of the venue until that point). Sorry, but trust us, we try to get every band to plug in.
Those Black J 45's, damn!!!!! Everyone I see is like $5,000!!!!!
Taylor is my new boy. ;)
And he's got a Supro Dual Tone! Can it get any better?!
Chris, you been working out?
hi has any one heard a really good demo of the jhs color box it does not sound very good in the ones i have seen it has just sounded really harsh?
Here ya go Ben: ua-cam.com/video/4Az3tw_z2-Y/v-deo.html
Do original frets on a custom shop Tele warrant a "wow" ?
Apparently so.
Daniel used to play over a multiple shows a night (on top of any other touring) at Robert's on Broadway so we're guessing Chris was surprised for as much stage time that Tele has seen that those frets are still holding up. Please excuse is excessive excitement-he's a fret man.
Wow!
+Paul McCaffrey Look up the videos of Daniel playing with the Don Kelley Band. Back at those clubs in Nashville really was his element.
It's actually, "WOW!"
i want to be one of these guys who gets sent stuff like in this video JHS just happened to send me 3 pedals! i will have to start a band but the trouble with that is it would need to be a good band shit bands don't get sent as much stuff!
That is a 6v6 385 not an el84
That is definitely not an Antiquity bridge pickup..
there doesn't look like any el84s in projector amp ? going to learn more

Blackface Pro as a Line 6 amp stand !! good thing it was rescued and put to work !
I have this really great guitar that's too good for gigging so l bought a look alike that sounds even better. Now l hardly ever play the good one...l mean...why would you?
This lead guitarist sure likes to name drop. Hey, whatever gets you inspired.
inspiring reference points are vital to shaping your own tone/style.
Well like what billy Gibbons told me, theres nothing wrong with name dropping.
He's super cool for sure.... he let us know about it.
6:28 homie should have taped “fuck my hairline” on the back instead ;(
Pronounced "Duh-dar-eeo"
Lol a thousand bucks. Not exactly a smoking deal but whatever
Haha, now we're at a stage in life where people think writing "fuck this politician" is a statement.
Is Rebecca Dirks a crowd surfing time traveller? Check out Primus - Full Concert - 08/14/94 - Woodstock 94 at 34.00...ok it"s not but just for a second there.....
6:28 Woooooow much edgey soooooooo political angst. gr8 b8 m8, I'll give you 8/8.
I listened to this band for their music. Taylor can take his obscenity and deep thought political commentary and stick it. I could care less what he thinks about our President. Any more of that and I'll be listening to somebody else.
Your president is a moron and a continuous source of inspiration.
Well....bye.
Later
Have a good one my dude
Lost me at the political message. Don’t like my entertainment mixed with politics.
Wade Wilson when will the entertainment industry learn ?!
How dare they use their platform to voice an opinion!
An economically clueless one, but an opinion none the less.
I hate when a band I like gets political! Its just bad.
I watched about dozen of your videos and really like what you guys are doing and sound great together HOWEVER, You could have left the NOT so funny Trump message off the back of your guitar and kept your thought to yourself as I am a Trump supporter and NOT a fan of yours after right NOW. Good Riddance !!
sensitive? look where politics got the Dixie Chicks! Actually I don't go to movies either because 75% of the Actors are liberal morons! Plus I have some relatives I could care less about because of their Hillary relationship.
Another person I can not stand is Springsteen! He had some good music but his liberalism is more than I can handle.These people would do much better if they would learn to keep politics separate from their carers. I wish them well if they continue down the same path although it seems that just one of them is outspoken about Trump.
Chris Kies does a great job with these, always asks good questions but i gave it a thumbs down because of the political message. People can have opinions, i am not a huge fan of Trump so don't start in on me here. Using vulgar language in reference to our President is just dumb. Did we do this with Obama? No. And i don't agree with many politicians on anything. Lets talk about the love of music and guitars and gear and take politics out. No one cares what i think or you think about it. It has little or no bearing on my life. Sorry....just so tired of all the negative crap. Not cool.
C'mon... all this political correctness is getting over the top. A whole paragraph dedicated to whining? SMH
i kind of liked you guys until I saw the anti-Trump msg on the back of one your guitars. Sorry dudes...He is President. If you can't be happy with that, ain't nothin gonna make you happy.
Their music is just as bad as their political views. Sad.
I wish you guys could have done Noel Gallagher's rig during his recent Ryman show. I know it is pretty simple rig but still it would be cool to see either him or his tech go through it all. Not complaining though, I do enjoy what you guys do!
We tried to set something up, but Noel's camp politely declined. We'll keep trying though!
That would have been incredible!
you guys should try for a Tame Impala rundown, not just Kevin's but all the live members pedals and guitars are really quite a sight to behold
totally agree!
