Rig Rundown: Foxing
Музыка
Full Rig Details: bit.ly/FoxingRR
Over the past decade and through four albums, Foxing has shown a lot of musical personalities. They’ve embraced the quirky, eclectic folk of Neutral Milk Hotel. Guitarist Eric Hudson has shown off some deft fretwork wrapped around complex rhythms similar to Tiny Moving Parts’ Dylan Mattheisen. They’ve dabbled in complicated, ambiguous instrumentation that echoes Radiohead. Most recently, the band has flexed a cinematic, post-rock cohesion that connects plot points via varied emotions and energy rather than analogous storytelling. And during the Rundown, Hudson hints at heavier, darker moments to come as they’ve been writing in tunings reserved for Behemoth and Melvins. All of these experimentations and transformations have allowed Foxing to carry on without needing a roadmap to their rock. And we’re just along for the ride.
The St. Louis indie rockers formed in the early 2010s out of the demise of Hunter Gatherer. Originally, the band was a trio with singer/guitarist Conor Murphy, bassist Josh Coll, and drummer Jon Hellwig. Prior to recording their 2013 debut, The Albatross, they expanded to a quintet with the addition of guitarists Eric Hudson and Ricky Sampson. However, Coll left ahead of Foxing’s third album, Nearer My God, and prior to recording their 2021 release, Draw Down the Moon (co-produced by Rig Rundown alumnus Andy Hull of Manchester Orchestra). And then Sampson departed the band. Murphy, Hellwig, and Hudson are the core members and tour with a rotating cast of contributors.
Ahead of Foxing’s July 5 headlining show at Nashville’s Basement East, Chris Kies hopped onstage and talked gear with Hudson, who touched on his love of “clanky” Strats, illustrated how his dual pedalboards can project him from pastoral to delirium, and explained why it always pays off to have good friends and to hang out at the merch booth.

At least the impedance mismatch on the Fender/Orange is a safe mismatch. If anything, he’s running his power tubes cooler and they’ll last longer and he’ll have less noise.

Been using a Mills Custom since 2014, they're amazing! Justin is a genius!
Looooove Foxing.
Please please please tell me you managed to do a rundown with Greet Death on this run as well. One of the sickest bands out there.
The King Of Gear is great! they also have a pedal that has the Marshall Shredmaster and Guvnor in 1 box. Basically to mimic the Radiohead high gain tones.

The toggle on the Moon guitar could be a Gilmour mod, switches the neck pickup on.

I was thinking it switched the pickups from series playing to parallel playing like how the Ibanez az and some charvels have but maybe not 🤷🏻
Bassman’s love 8 ohms actually. Their transformers are wound for 4 ohms but love 8. Less bright and a little less volume at 8 but perfectly balanced frequency wise. 16 is a little to flubby.

So not the Moon guitars that’s been in existence since the 1970’s in Glasgow! Oops someone could find themselves talking to lawyers!
Aqua Teen Hunger Force reference on that Strat bro?
Great video but Eric got one thing wrong. There is no 2014 American Professional because the American Professional line started in 2017. I'm assuming that he meant American Standard.

it’s not an american standard. look at the neck plate. they may have used a previous year as a serial number on the american professionals in their first run

Personally, I feel real synths do a better job making non guitar sounds.I prefer fresh or different guitar specific sounds you can't make any other way,- and there is a broad range of possibilities there. One thing I do regret is not learning keys when I was younger, so I could just switch back and forth as required.Some great, portable, simpler keyboards around today that didn't exist 20 years ago. Pedals like the Malekko Downer blow the POS Whammy away; I recently ditched the EHX Pitchfork+ ( on the board forever) for the more exciting Poison Noises SeeSaw.
Lol "I'm not much of a gearhead" yet has a Klon and SF Bassman 😉
I want a bassman, so I can put a piece of tape over the B

Idk about squire, but it defitnely is a mismatch of parts. I’m pretty sure the body and neck are from different Fender models
Everyone go buy Moon Guitar! They’re amazing…won’t disappoint! 🤌
