Rig Rundown - Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit

Americana troubadour, Jason Isbell met with Premier Guitar’s Perry Bean at the Tivoli Theatre in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to go deep about his guitars, Dumble-modified amps, and why his wife is the best at picking out gifts.

This 1961 Gibson ES-335 is the first really old and really awesome guitar that Isbell obtained and is mostly original with a few key upgrades. Isbell had famed Nashville luthier Joe Glaser give the guitar a refret and install a TonePros tailpiece along with new tuners because after years of use the originals started to look like “a dead man’s toe.”

A 2014 Gibson Collector’s Choice Les Paul goldtop (#12) is patterned after a ’57—scratches and all. After loading up the guitar with a pair of OX4 PAF-style pickups, Isbell considers this the best “new” Les Paul he’s played.

Isbell tweaked this 2014 Fender Custom Shop ’60 Tele Custom (which was built by Master Builder Paul Waller) by adding a black pickguard and a Twisted Tele pickup in the neck position.
