“[Pedals] inspire me to do things differently. It’s such a big part of what I do and how I create,” says Paramore guitarist Taylor York.
We caught up with the guitarist of Nashville pop-punk sensations Paramore to check out the gear he uses to bring to life the band’s stadium-sized hooks stuffed with enough ear candy to make every day feel like Halloween.
York plugs his Bilt and Supro axes into an RJM Mastermind switcher used to trigger the plethora of pedals stashed away in his rack, which feeds a pair of Supro Statesman amps, and a Top Hat Emplexador, all of which blast through a trio of Supro cabinets live onstage.
Taylor’s main overdrive sound comes courtesy of a pair of RawkWorks Light Overdrives, and for raunchier fuzz tones, he uses the Dirt Transmitter and Terminal (“I got [the Terminal] because [Tame Impala frontman] Kevin Parker has it,” he adds. “Because everyone loves Kevin”).
York’s modulation palette includes two Boss DC-2s, a CE-2w, and the Rainbow Machine, which Taylor says he originally used for the weirdness factor, but has since discovered a number of day-to-day uses. “I used it for one its wacky things - it sounded almost like a car. I didn’t realize how useable it was…until I found this really cool modulated slapback. I use that all over the place,” he says.
In addition, York uses the Grand Orbiter for a swirly, resonant phaser that’s FOH engineer approved, without any of the harsh frequencies found in other units. “Phasers are always really tricky,” he says. “You can really dial it in right.”
Paramore’s After Laughter is out now on Fueled by Ramen.

Never heard Taylor speak so much in my entire life lol so much content
He could talk about tech/guitar stuff for a whole hour and it would still be the most calming thing I've ever listened to.

A rare Paramon
He has consistently great and interesting tones, even as their music has evolved stylistically over the years.
Interesting to note, people assume Taylor joined Paramore in 2007. Which is half true, he did indeed REJOIN them in 2007, but he was also an original member of the band. Before Hayley and Jeremy left their band "The Factory" Josh and Zac Farro, along with Taylor (Taylor being Zac's BFF) and another friend, had started a garage band which ultimately became Paramore after asking Hayley and Jeremy to join. Jeremy being skeptical about the band and it's young members Zac and Taylor, sarcastically stated, "we're gonna play with these kids?" Soon after, for personal reasons, Taylor and their other friend had opted out of the band, but Taylor continued to help create and write new songs and sounds, in doing so wrote Paramore's first ever song "Conspiracy". Due to Taylor leaving the band they were stuck without a Rhythm guitarist so Hayley had asked her "friend" and neighbor at the time, Jason Bynum to fill in as the Rhythm Guitarist with Jeremy leaving the band during the process of making their debut album "All We Know Is Falling". Which was inspired by the loss of their bassist and friend quitting the band.

Three years later and I'm still listening Taylor talking about gear. But now I completely understand the last part of this video, when he says "Pedals don't make something good just because they sound cool. It's like they inspire me to do things differently"
the taylor content i always needed
I love Taylor. He's completely dreamy, really nice, and has great soul. Big reason the band prevails
It's so cool to have a peek behind the scenes like this, because the next time we're on a Paramore show we'll be able to just appreciate what we see even more. Cause we know the history behind. Well done guys!

You can talk all the time T. Whatever you're talking about is so good.
Next video has to be, “Taylor York: Hair secrets”. I have curly hair like his but can never maintain it that way.
YES THANK YOU FOR FEATURING MY BABY
I'm so glad that he's not one of those that doesn't even know what's going on in their rigs...he truly seems to know his gear.
Wish I knew more about guitars and pedals so I can understand

Highkey Allpressure I know this is a year late but I just came across it. It’s guitar talk. Apparently, according to my non guitarist friends, family, and wife we seem to speak a different language. Once you’ve played awhile it all makes sense. My mom before she passed recently. God bless her she used to listen and my dad would say do u understand anything he’s saying re guitars etc and she would say no but it’s easier to pretend I do. She actually did learn a bit though so it turned out she was listening. It’s all pedal talk, pick ups in the guitars which there a ton of different kinds and different sounds, same with the pedals. Tons of different sounds etc. and amp stuff.

taylor york's voice is so soothing, i've used this video so many times to fall asleep
Nice to see Taylor in the limelight. I absolutely love his passion, intellect, and incredible talent. ❤️🤘🏻
his voice is not the typical soothing deep voice but it's soothing nonetheless. damn i love this man
"Yeah, I'm constantly buying pedals and looking on Reverb and like I'm kind of obsessed with it. I need to start selling things cause I just keep acquiring them and they keep stacking up" Plenty of us watching this know that feel!

I have no idea what he's talking about but his voice is just so sooooothing
what I love about this video is that the intermissions (?) , when they play recordings of Paramore live , instead of dubbing the original song they leave it as it is.
Never really heard Paramore before, but the tone he's getting is pretty sick. Giving me Deftones vibes (more Chino toned though not like Stef and his 8's XD)
we owe most of the new different sounds and music to this guy. I love Taylor ♥
I love Taylor. I just knew I’d like him before I heard him speak. More content please!!
Taylor is so amazing. Amazing guitarist, producer, artist, and person. He saved paramore from depression. Hopefully paramore never dies but if it ever does, I hope he becomes a very well known producer
His curly hair, his green eyes, his face, his everything. WHY U HAVE TO BE FUCKING HANDSOME TAYLOR, yeah you,,
TAYLOR IS SO GENIUS!
YES FINALLY A RIG RUNDOWN OF TAYLOR
the tone at 2:26 is immaculate
“Cuz everyone love Kevin” even real recognize real
"hey guys I'm taylor york...." HITS LIKE BUTTON FASTER THAN USAIN BOLT
This has got to be the most I’ve ever heard Taylor talk at one time
his voice is so calming i can hear him for hours.
It's so sweet and smart to see Taylor talk for so long about some tech and guitar stuff.
I think I need more of this cool stuff, like a v insightful documentary on the AL era
Bless this beautiful man
So handsome
He's adorbs. A poodle of pedals. Poodles for armor.
BLESSSS
Paramore sounds awesome live and showmanship is great.
I need him to nerd out more, i could listen to him talk about his craft forever. Maybe when we were teens we did care as much or didnt know as much, now most of the fansom is grown up and we absolutely love the passion and knowledge behind the sound. Makes the live experiences better too, bc you truly appreciate that he is playing live, sometimes we forget, we see a band moving and they are actually building stuff its crazy. I love paramore so much, latinamerica might have a sh*tty economy but i will finally see them live soon, cant wait to see T pressing sttabing, pressing, tapping his set
A true inspiration 🥺🥺
I need a video where Taylor talks about all of his guitars he uses on stage and what songs he uses them for as well, as well as why he chose the designs especially with his built guitars cause I’m obsessed with built guitars but I can’t afford them.
Taylor’s such an idol and inspiration to me 🤘
god finally i wanted something like this for MONTHS lmao thank you!
i dont understand what this guy is mainly talking about, but i love to listen to him talking for like an hours or so.
Even though I don't understand anything he's talking about, Taylor's so passionate about music and so talented! See you guys in Cardiff on the 11th!!!!
Have I mentioned how much I admire and love Taylor York? Yes Yes I have and I'm mentioning it once again lol
WE NEED MORE TAYLOR YORK!
can y’all please make another video of his equipment actually being demonstrated
Everyone loves Kevin, exactly!
This guy literally writes the lps instrumentals, fucking genius
i don’t know what he’s talking about but i can listen to him forever
I really love how he is a subject matter expert at what he does.
I came here bc... you know, it’s Taylor York. I now feel the urge to try all the pedals my guitarist friends own. And I don’t know what to think of that...

Emi Lrt Is there any way that you can identify the tunings for a few songs? I'm trying to learn Hate To See Your Heart Break, and I know there's a capo on the 5th fret, i'm just unsure about the exact tuning, considering when he's playing the instrumental towards the end, he begins with an open high E string
He’s honestly so adorable
He works so hard. God damn. Wizard human
I still think about this man's introduction when I am listening to "That's what you get"
Thank you guys for interviewing taylor about guitars. I always wanted to know something about him that he truly cares about..on the lines of his guitars. He deserves all of the guitars plus more

Don't understand a thing about it, but I really love T. ! His voice is so calming
