Rig Rundown - Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real

One of Americana’s rising stars (and a son of an outlaw legend) goes deep on his vintage Gibson, using a dual-amp setup, and why he eschews most pedals.
Watch: bit.ly/LukasNel...
Don't Miss a Rundown: bit.ly/RIgRundo...
Lukas Nelson and bassist Corey McCormick hung with PG’s John Bohlinger before their rocking show at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium to talk gear.
Lukas Nelson’s No. 1 is this 1956 Gibson Les Paul Jr. This mostly stock Jr has a MojoAxe bridge to help with intonation. Gibson is currently making a signature replica of this guitar. It stays strung with DR Pure Blues (.011-.014-.018-.028-.038-.050). Nelson’s leather guitar straps are made by Cody Hixon.

    I have a hat that belonged to my grandfather: He had it signed by Hank; then my dad had it signed by Willie, Waylon and Hank Jr; and I had it signed by Lukas Nelson, Shooter Jennings, and Hank 3. It’s a prized possession.

    That had to be a really cool moment for all the younger generation folks but especially for hank 3. Since he never got to meet his grandfather it probably made him feel that much closer to him.

    Love this band, I first saw Lukas in Alexandria, LA with his family and their bands. I saw them at New Orleans Jazz Fest last year and they were awesome. I always wanted a 1957 Les Paul Junior and finally bought one after hearing Lukas play his 56 model. Thank you so much for helping out the farmers, this year and last year has been hard on farmers because of the tariffs and all of the spring flooding. I think the Nelson’s are some of the finest people in America and they always show love and do acts of kindness and raise money for charities to help people. Please go see them and help support them as they support others in the world. Thank you. 👍🙏🎸✌️😎

Live an learn I see no reason to use anything higher than 10's and 9's do the job in most cases I have an epiphone les paul custom I can put 9's on and tune to D and it responds well really well I had get the frets leveled on it to help achieve that but it does it, it's a nice player
