Rig Rundown - All Time Low

PG’s Perry Bean caught up the Baltimore-based band and their techs to talk gear before All Time Low’s headlining show at Nashville’s Ascend Ampitheater.

Lead guitarist Jack Barakat’s main ride is this purple ESP Eclipse-II that has custom pumpkin inlays with Seymour Duncan pickups—a JB in the bridge and a Jazz in the neck—because he felt the standard active pickups ESP uses are too hot and distorted for the band’s sound. However, he bypassed all the electronics in the guitar and the bridge pickup goes straight to the output jack. He prefers to have his axes finished in matte because it helps him retain a solid grip up and down the guitar after starting to sweat during performances. (Oh, and he does like how it looks, too.) All of his guitars are strung up with Ernie Ball Beefy Slinkys .011–.054. He uses custom All Time Low-branded Jim Dunlop Tortex .73 mm picks.

Like his 6-string counterpart, rhythm guitarist Alex Gaskarth is loyal to one type of axe, and in his case, it’s a Fender Classic Series ’72 Telecaster Deluxe that comes stock with Wide Range humbuckers. Just like Barakat, he plays Ernie Ball Beefy Slinkys .011–.054.
