I mean if you have 2 different tunings you need 4 guitars. 2 mains and 2 back ups. Pedal boards are cool because tuners and other effects. And things like axfx save bands tones of money because shipping physical amps and cabs is crazy expensive. So. I see what you're saying but

What an amazing record that is

Brian B watching Rig Rundown and loved the AC DC one. That is so cool. Salt of the earth guys there.....

Brian Baker, hands down, punk guitar hero Numero uno. Just a couple of Les Pauls straight into a Marshall and no pedals. That's punk rock. Awesome rig rundown!

What a great interview with the second guy. He clearly loves his guitars and amps. He just spouted his passion out.

“They do LEAVE the pedal, so, that shows how far we’ve come. Thank you.” 😂😂😂

I’ll say it again Perry has really gotten good at this gig, very cool episode.

Loved this Rig Rundown! I had the pleasure of meeting Brian, Jay, and the rest of the band back in 2000. During the half-hour or so I got to hang out with them Brian gave me a piece of advice that I never forgot: "If you get a chance to play in a band like Bad Religion, don't ever leave." I understood what he meant when he told me that. Opportunities to play with great bands don't come too often, so if you find yourself invited to play with a band you love, do it and enjoy the ride. Happy to say I'm still an active 'weekend warrior' and doing some light touring to this day. Thanks Brian and Jay!

You shouldnt have a junior- if your gonna be nit pickin about intonation lol - the most punk rock statement ever, bravo

Brian Baker is the Mr Rogers of punk rock. Incredibly cool dude and musician.

All the members of Bad Religion consistently come across as the most down-to-earth, gracious dudes.

I’ve watched so many episodes on this channel it’s cool seeing them but this episode was amazing. Everyone was so polite and knowledgeable abt the gear and rigs, tbh I really like how everything was just so simple, just a good ol’ Les Paul plugged into a couple amps and using the volume knob for effects. Jay was so funny just watching him react to every question and like telling BR stories of recordings, Brian was so humble abt his inspirations in the punk rock world and was really chill and personal abt it, Mike was also hilarious in talking abt his rigs and basically talking abt sending guitar pics to Brian and comparing it to “Guitar P-n”. Anyways I loved this, thx for giving me knowledge abt great punk rock guitar tone. 🔥🔥🔥

Opened up for Bad Religion in '96, in Belgium. Brian had only one guitar with him: a 'factory second' black Gibson LP Standard. It even didn't have a serial number. Their amps were hissing all the way through soundcheck so they asked me if they could use both my JCM 800's. Nice guys all the way for sure. Met them several times after that in Europe/USA, you can not go wrong with BR! Period!

Next to 311, this is the coolest rig rundown I’ve seen. Something about both of their rigs just defies logic on how simple and beautiful a P90 Vintage Gibson junior into a Marshall plexi. These guys are super humble and generous and friendly. Love Rig Rundown.

Yup... I often say this too... wish there had been PG Rig Rundowns when I was a kid! I've learned so much about guitar tones and setups in the last few years watching this show!

Steve Jones and Johnny Thunders, and early Mick Jones, all Juniors..... .. for (Punk) Rock n Roll that's it, right there 👍

This is one of my favorite vids of all time 100%. BR has been my favorite band for about 9 years and a huge influence on me as a musician.

As a young teenager, New America was my first BR album. Thank god for Punk-O-Rama, otherwise i would have stopped there.

“God love him” says the Bad Religion guitarist

I got drunk and watched the Bad Religion Rig Rundown again. I'm worried I already left this comment. Anyway, Brian Baker is the Platonic ideal of the old guy who makes sure to read every plaque he encounters in a new city and also once had to fight a crew of shitty Long Island skins.

This is really awesome! I’m so glad Bad Religion made their appearance on Rig Rundown!

Awesome New America anecdotes from Jay at the end. Man is a legend.

"Dear Diary, today was a good day."

Seen these guys a couple months ago .. didn't play many of the old stuff which bummed me out but still rocked the house

Best rig rundown of all rig rundowns?! I believe so 💪🏻.

Nice one Mike... usually a clean thing is a quiet part of the song, Thats so onto it.I use a guitar with p90s so many tones in the volume and tone knobs cleans up beautifully. Thanks man

"No, it wasn't repaired, it was just from hanging". PERFECT reason for that UV light. Both things will show there's something there. But the glue and the repair will fluoresce, a nick won't.

Thanks for finally sharing this guys

I learned 35 years of unknowns too watching every RR front to end. It also took me about as long to learn the power and necessity of rolling off the volume depending on a million things. That came around the time I bought a P90 guitar.

This is one of my favorite rig rundowns

Been waiting for this one.

I need to learn how to control volume using the knob. Thanks Mike for pointing out how important it is.

Legendary guys. Great interviews

Finally getting to this video. Bad Religion is the one band I’ve seen the most (not with this line up). But I’m stoked for this

Loved this episode. First of all, I'm a big Bad Religion fan. But also, you did a great job with the interview. Very natural.

Really good on the detail but the camera shots of the gear are lacking compared to some of the old Rig Rundown. I've always found it interesting to see some up-close shots of the front and back of the amplifiers.

"My main effects pedal: Boss TU-2"

I love these guys so much. This might be the first video I've seen of Bad Religion talking about their gear.

Definitely my favorite episode

Bought the new record off the back of this rig rundown. Love it.

I actually had the pleasure of working on one of Brian's old 800's from his Junkyard days years ago. The band name was spray-painted onto the metal grill on the rear of the amp and it had since fallen into the care of a studio cat that had toured with REM. It was also bone stock aside from tubes and it needed some new electrolytics -- the old LCR multi-caps had started losing steam and the EL34's in there were not the best for what the owner was after. Also added a fixed resonance mod -- totally reversible but the owner was keen to the idea of a little more low-end. Was definitely a bright moment for me as BR was (and is) a huge part of my early years.

Dimkich (andJamie Miller, for that matter) have the three most crucial abilities: DependABILITY, reliABILITY, and availABILITY. They show up on time, on top on their shit, gear in shape, chops in shape, heads in shape, ready to contribute. To a band at Bad Religion’s career stage, that’s priceless.
