Agreed, I’m getting shit from my mates for playing my DiMarzio swapped PGMM31 ($200 Ibanez) and we all have fancy $2000+ MIJ Ibanezs but its just got such a nice sound and plays suprisingly well and easy. Idk mini guitars kickass
I remember back in the day my chem and Hawthorne Heights would play epiphone les Paul’s. It was awesome to be like I can afford that and famous musicians play the same thing.
Frank is such a chill dude. Ran into him in ‘07 project revolution Detroit, walking though the parking lot. Chatted with him for about 15mins and got his signature. So down to earth.
thats amazing! i love him but i'd think that he wouldnt spend 15 minutes talking to a random person, but things like these makes me think that he's such a nice and chill dude and not cocky at all
I’m 16 now and I’m getting so into guitar because of listening to my chem, but frank and ray are the main inspirations. Also other rock bands I have listened to since I was small, but I’m just now starting to listen to every part of the music
I would recommend some of my inspirations but you can hear them all at once in my music. Check some of my guitar works at george chronas - premier which is available on my bandcamp... you are probably around 19 and more advanced now so I would recommend also my most recent release George Chronas Fusique and the rational sequence of events- rapid change of a scenery
Hearing him play makes me so happy, like with how much he puts into it and how he thinks about it all. I'm still learning guitar and I'm a *long* way from getting anything coherent and concrete I guess but this motivated me so much. He's such an inspiration and influence💛
Yesterday I was trying to play resurrectionist for the first time and now I feel like I NEED to learn how to play it. Nevermind if I have a huge test tomorrow it's showtime
frank is genuinely my biggest inspo for helping my find my guitar passion five years ago!! i couldn’t be more grateful to him for sparking ly biggest love :)
Holy shit, did he buy that baritone from The Rock Shop in WEM? I used to go in and play that exact guitar. Was sad when it wasn't there anymore and I always wondered where it found its home. Crazy.
Coming back to watch this after past lives was released and hearing that riff from blender near the end was like fucking whiplash. Makes me wonder if any of the other unidentifiable guitar parts he's played in interviews like this will ever make it into anything
Not going to lie, not a fan of the group. But this was a GREAT Rig Rundown because dude is so into the gear. I appreciate the riffs he threw down, and the stories about how things were acquired. Thank you.
I got a guitar at 15 and never learn to play it and honestly this is so cool and interesting I’m kinda hating my teen self for never really getting on it
The amount you put into it is the amount you'll get out of it. Learn your chords and scales. I've been playing 25 years and I still practice my scales and modes every single day.
"broken in the best way possible" is a wonderful thing to hear as someone who wants to play and therefore is trawling through these kinds of videos cause I wanna be able to play but at the same time I have 0 money for gear
Finally got to see MCR again (after twelve long years) this past September. Frank pulled out a white Gibson LP Custom (I presume the same one in this video) and it made my little emo guitarist heart big happy
the Klon hype is real! theres a GREAT imitation of it for about $40 you can get on Amazon. As far as in a live setting the difference is almost unnoticeable.
Anyone know what pedal/s he's using to achieve that fuzz tone around the 34:30 mark? Is that the FuzzLord? It has this really cool fizzy sound to it but doesn't totally mud out like some fuzz pedals do when you turn them up too much.
This squier jazzmaster baritone is just a Killer Instrument. It's a shame that Fender / Squier does Not manufacture/sales it anymore. Especially since Bands like Loathe have such a deep impact in the scene with those Kind of guitars
Swollen Pickle Posse. We role deep, and silent. Most people I hear online talk shit about it. But it is capable of so many sounds, and they're all REALLY good. You have to consider it a 7 knob pedal to really get what you want. I think people buy it, plug it in, and jam, and maybe they don't get exactly what they want. But it is a complex, interactive pedal where all knobs effect all other knobs. So spend some time with it, and tweak it, open it up, and get at those other two knobs. And don't believe everything you hear, even from George Tripp, as depending on your version, the knobs may work in reverse fashion. If your eyes are rolling, move on. But if you're into the deep ones, and taking deep dives, having a relationship, check out that Swollen Pickle. Honestly, I think its name is too much, and has doomed it. But it really is amazing sounding, and SO versatile. (To the point I want to own like 4 of them, so I can access all the different sounds on stage.)
I bought one a while back specifically because of Frank, I really need to sit down with it and figure it out a little better xD I can't really tell if I like it better as a fuzz pedal or a really hot distortion

I love that he’s using a Squier and an Epiphone. It’s cool to see someone who cares more about the tone and feel than the name on the headstock.

Any les Paul with gibsonnpickups r the best tone imo they just sound so fat and good
Yup, top end epiphone (specially japanese models) sound better than a USA Gibson, even if the gibson price is around 2x than the top end epiphone
I remember back in the day my chem and Hawthorne Heights would play epiphone les Paul’s. It was awesome to be like I can afford that and famous musicians play the same thing.
Yeah but he has TWO klons. That’s a flex on a flex

You are so lucky! I'd kill to meet him.
Wonderful fan moment
My man has two Klons, he is FLEXING
That's what Black Parade money gets you
He got THREE klons!! dayymm
There's gonna be some friction with tyler larson soon
He probably bought them when they were a grand
"Gee Frankie, how come your mom lets you have TWO Klons!?"
Also the madlad has an original Blues Breaker to boot xD
alternate title: "Frank Iero shows off his rig while accidentally hinting towards new MCR work".
I got so shocked to see Frank say he played 13s in MCR, goddamn the tiny man got strong hands lol
And carpel tunnel
I play 10's and im trying to switch to 11's to play in lower tunings and its impossible. How does anyone play 13's
@@marshallvbrooks try 10-52s!
Ain't problem to him because he doesn't do bend stuf
@@THRILL606 I’m loving the Paradigm 10-52s by Ernie Ball right now!
Didn't know much about MyChem or Frank Iero. Now intrigued. Thanks Chris.
29:00 Frank: Impossible to stay in E and not play Helena.
I’m 16 now and I’m getting so into guitar because of listening to my chem, but frank and ray are the main inspirations. Also other rock bands I have listened to since I was small, but I’m just now starting to listen to every part of the music
Yess me too!! I hope u have an amazing time learning guitar :]
YES SAME AAAA
They're the reason I started playing guitar too. I'm about 5-6 years deep now and it's become an obsession. Stick to it!
I would recommend some of my inspirations but you can hear them all at once in my music. Check some of my guitar works at george chronas - premier which is available on my bandcamp... you are probably around 19 and more advanced now so I would recommend also my most recent release George Chronas Fusique and the rational sequence of events- rapid change of a scenery
He just seems like the most fun guy to hang out with.
Because hes so short?
Wtf@@standinsilence
@@VulgarInitials
He's like the Danny DeVito of emo.
Have you seen the film Twins (1988)?
I have no clue what the hell he's talking about but it makes me happy to listen to how excited he is to be talking about it
Frank playing that Les Paul is so nostalgic omg
Hearing him play makes me so happy, like with how much he puts into it and how he thinks about it all. I'm still learning guitar and I'm a *long* way from getting anything coherent and concrete I guess but this motivated me so much. He's such an inspiration and influence💛
Thanks for keeping the Rig Rundowns coming in these times. I'm not a MCR fan but still enjoyed the rig rundown very much.
when that les paul fell into his lap, man... that just felt right
I wish MCR gets inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
That's not gonna happen for a long time
when bullets hits 25 years old they'll be eligible i think
@@loganrandall780 hey that’s only 6 years away
@@coreyryan97 dont say that I feel old now
If any band from that decade deserves it.. It’s them
Anyone else get a glimmer of hope when he said My Chem in present tense at 42:49?
Hope turned into reality.
47:43 "Yeah, I did two Thursday Livestreams on this and then a couple of MC-recording stuff". Look how quick Frank hides his mouth with his hand. 👀
Damn I've only watched this video like twenty times now and I never caught that xD
wtf lmaoo absolutely love the new track i hope we get an ep or allbum soon
Dude is down to earth. Love hearing him chat about gear. Get Ray Toro on here!
man i love me some frank talking about guitars and just seeing him play, it's awesome
Yesterday I was trying to play resurrectionist for the first time and now I feel like I NEED to learn how to play it. Nevermind if I have a huge test tomorrow it's showtime
Frank seems like an all around good dude, and also seems excited to talk gear and whatnot...makes for an interesting watch for sure.
Legendary. Get Ray on here!
Why did I know when that Les Paul came out that he’d play something from MCR😂
Haha me too. Something at the back of my mind knew that was coming.
"I still love the pickle" - Frank Iero 2021
47:42 You did some _WHAT?_ *What did you almost say, Frank?*
frank is genuinely my biggest inspo for helping my find my guitar passion five years ago!! i couldn’t be more grateful to him for sparking ly biggest love :)
"m- recording stuff"
SO, UH-
IN WHICH MINUTE DID HW SAY IT
WHEN
WHEN
around 47:45
47:45
Came for the interest in the Rig. SOLD on the DD lawn sign. If ya know, ya know.
Haha I wish I DID know... 'kin thing intrigues me greatly!
i was just listening to the resurrectionist before this video :')))
You doing okay?
@@radmads1015 nopeee not at all haha

One of the coolest dudes around. Love him
Perfect time for a full scale MCR gig rundown as they are touring. Get on it pleaseee. It's long overdue
Not going to lie, not a fan of the group. But this was a GREAT Rig Rundown because dude is so into the gear. I appreciate the riffs he threw down, and the stories about how things were acquired.
Thank you.
Rock on!
I was literally about to comment the same sentiment. Haha. This was super entertaining, despite not knowing this guy, really.
@@SrDeMaFp I would like to think I would have a great time bullshitting with Mr Frank. His laugh is infectious.
please do same with Ray Toro!!
Oh my goodness yes that would be amazing!!!
@@wil94976 IKR!
I love listening to him play
This made my day. What am awesome, relaxed and passionate chat about gear! Awesome.
i really needed this tonight
Ceb? Hiii
I got a guitar at 15 and never learn to play it and honestly this is so cool and interesting I’m kinda hating my teen self for never really getting on it
It’s not too late! Start playing now!
It’s true! Start playing now! You can do it man
@@matthewn8100 shes a girl tho
Still can learn!
The amount you put into it is the amount you'll get out of it. Learn your chords and scales. I've been playing 25 years and I still practice my scales and modes every single day.
Frank seems like a chill genuine dude. I appreciate that.
I've wanted a Frank Iero R.R. for soooooo long!!! Please do Ray next!!!
Damn, he comes up with some dope pop punk riffs
How lucky are we see this guy play riffs? Frank is badass no matter what. I recommend all things Iero.. :)
Frank is so nice. This is going to be amazing!
"broken in the best way possible" is a wonderful thing to hear as someone who wants to play and therefore is trawling through these kinds of videos cause I wanna be able to play but at the same time I have 0 money for gear
Resurrections in c# is one of my favorite songs of all time soundtrack to the last few months of high school for me seriously great
What a cool dude! Seems real down to earth but knows his stuff.
I can't play guitar but these frank videos are making me wanna learn so bad
DO IT!!
Me devolvió a la vida esto, totalmente una bomba no esperaba menos de ti Frank
Gary Holt and a friend got me into My Chemical Romance! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Finally got to see MCR again (after twelve long years) this past September. Frank pulled out a white Gibson LP Custom (I presume the same one in this video) and it made my little emo guitarist heart big happy
Hell yeah repping that Ibanez chorus flange! unironically my favorite chorus sound ever, its just perfect that delay is cool too.
the Klon hype is real! theres a GREAT imitation of it for about $40 you can get on Amazon. As far as in a live setting the difference is almost unnoticeable.
This was a great rig rundown! Nice to see frank pick up that custom!
He left epiphone,I suspect he will have a deal with fender
there's definitely been a lot of JM love with him recently
Frank Iero is like a cross between Peter Maximoff & Zacky Vengeance.
This is like my 10th time rewatching this, its funny how he's playing some of the dunes riffs before the project was even announced.
Anyone know what pedal/s he's using to achieve that fuzz tone around the 34:30 mark? Is that the FuzzLord? It has this really cool fizzy sound to it but doesn't totally mud out like some fuzz pedals do when you turn them up too much.
Is it just me or does his Blues Driver at 47:35 have the switch cover piece from a Boss Tremolo pedal on it?
it does look like that! but maybe it's really old idk
Love these rig rundown vids!! Awesome.
Next: Ray Toro plsssssss
I still have my Toro shirt
Please do a Ray Toro rig rundown!
That Klon has been staring me down the whole video
Frank is such an inspiration. I got inspired to learn guitar because of him and ray.
I wouldn'tve given a Dan Armstrong (even a Reissue) away for a Gary Holt signature model... Gary really got the better end of that "deal" IMO lol
I belive in blonde Frank supremacy✨
MCR
7:54 Ibanez, Ernie ball, Kiesel, Tagima, Schecter and probably more brands
47:43
what were you going to say ???
"a couple mc-recording stuff"
OMFG HE LOOKS SO LIKE "what the fuck did i say" AFTER SAYING THAT IM------
This squier jazzmaster baritone is just a Killer Instrument. It's a shame that Fender / Squier does Not manufacture/sales it anymore. Especially since Bands like Loathe have such a deep impact in the scene with those Kind of guitars
30:58 .... diamond peg head... custom split diamond inlay? Epi’s LP custom has them too
Loved his playing in the intro, is that him just jamming or is that a song? What kind of chords are those around 1:08?
They kind of look like D string Octave chords but I can't tell!
he’s playing “the resurrectionist” from the parachutes record! the chords are octaves
@@lucius.edw.c hell yeah thank you
Please do Ray Toro!
34:40 〜 Black Parade !!
You've got such interesting questions for him and it's good because he is such an interesting man
LETS GO i was supposed to see them live too :( finally a newer rignrundown
Imagine if Ray Toro did one too!!
Blonde frank my beloved
Sooo glad theres new rundowns
See?
Fun AND interesting!
Anyone with spare love for Gary Holt's guitar violence is all good by me... Adore his sig. axe
I have a Jazzmaster partscaster just like that but with a maple fretboard.
such a cool dude. great interview
Master of Octave..
HIM!!!!!! THE MAN!!!
34:45 instantly knew that‘s Black Parade
lo amooooooo gracias por la entrevista 🙏
That Every Time I Die T-Shirt!
I love Frank 😰
Love me that tattoo flash behind you dude. Would love that for my next piece.
Go for it!
FRANK IEROOOOOOOO 😭♥️
37:35 babe what
Love this content! Awesome! :)
Glad you enjoy it!
can you please do a rig rundown with ray toro of my chemical romance
Man Frank just seems like such an awesome dude

37:40 .... did he just drop a hint at a new record by accident here?
How come Frank Iero hasn’t even gotten a guitar solo on MCR song yet? He’s so good at guitar!
He is a rhythm guitarist not a lead guitarist.
@@theintrovertoddball7463 For a rhythm guitarist, I think any lead guitarist would be like "Oh we have two lead guitarists now?"
He leads ghost of you
Dude...This guy has at least three Klons on the floor...
