PG’s Perry Bean met with boundary-pushing guitarists Kerry McCoy and Shiv Mehra of Deafheaven during their stop in Nashville. McCoy and Shiv showed their atypical guitars, workhorse pedalboards, and loud tube-driven amps.

Kerry McCoy tours with two Dunable guitars. His No. 1 is this Moonflower model featuring a walnut body and neck, wenge fretboard with flame maple binding, Dunable Grizzly pickups, Grover Sta-Tite tuners, and a dive-bombing Kahler bridge. This is a body shape/style that Intronaut guitarist/luthier Sacha Dunable normally doesn’t build, but he asked Sacha to build his version of Kerry’s rare blue Les Paul that he used to favor.

Shiv plays a Dunable Yeti with a mahogany neck and body, ebony fretboard, brushed aluminum pickguard and hardware, and Gibson Burstbucker pickups. Shiv strings it with D'Addario NYXL .011s, tuned to either standard tuning or dropped D.
