The other day I saw a nice article by Total Guitar where they had a chance to talk gear with Mastodon. I know a few of you are big fans of the band, and in particular with Brent Hinds, so thought I would post his pedal board today. If you’re interested in the article by Total Guitar, please go here – “Mastodon Rig Tour: Brent and Bill’s gear“.
Brent has a pretty classic board with a few interesting pieces. The first item was the hair dryer. Thought that was interesting. Curious if that effects his signal chain at all. I would assume that it would generate a magnetic field. Also, there is a Orange footswitch in the signal line as well. I’m not 100% sure what this a all about either (possible true bypass loop?). Looks like he’s had to deal with some noise as well – noticed the Boss NS-2 and Ebtech Hum Eliminator.
Here is the break down of pedals on the board. Let me know if anything is incorrect or missing by commenting below. Enjoy!
