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
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.
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
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
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
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.
Not a big fan of that overly distorted sound at the beginning. Love his guitar choice tho’! And that Gary Holt signature LTD is a fantastic instrument. ESP/LTD guitars are awesome! They kick Gibson and Paul Reed Whatsisface’s guitars into the stands at a similar price point. Dunno who it is who’s designing the guitars at ESP, but they’re doing a grand job!
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
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.
I had an early 80’s HAMER doublecut with an Ebony fretboard and a Floyd Rose that was a great guitar. The Floyd was something else....you could dive bomb until you were turning into EVH and that thing would come right back into tune every time! Lost it in the pawn for a measly fifty quid back in 1990. What an asshole.

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
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

You are so lucky! I'd kill to meet him.
Wonderful fan moment
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
@@marshallbrooks2296 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!
alternate title: "Frank Iero shows off his rig while accidentally hinting towards new MCR work".
29:00 Frank: Impossible to stay in E and not play Helena.
Didn't know much about MyChem or Frank Iero. Now intrigued. Thanks Chris.
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

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!

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)?
Frank playing that Les Paul is so nostalgic omg
when that les paul fell into his lap, man... that just felt right
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.
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💛
"m- recording stuff"
SO, UH-
IN WHICH MINUTE DID HW SAY IT
WHEN
WHEN
around 47:45
47:45
Anyone else get a glimmer of hope when he said My Chem in present tense at 42:49?
Hope turned into reality.
Thanks for keeping the Rig Rundowns coming in these times. I'm not a MCR fan but still enjoyed the rig rundown very much.
Dude is down to earth. Love hearing him chat about gear. Get Ray Toro on here!
"I still love the pickle" - Frank Iero 2021
Legendary. Get Ray on here!
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
man i love me some frank talking about guitars and just seeing him play, it's awesome
Frank seems like an all around good dude, and also seems excited to talk gear and whatnot...makes for an interesting watch for sure.
i was just listening to the resurrectionist before this video :')))
You doing okay?
@@radmads1015 nopeee not at all haha
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
One of the coolest dudes around. Love him

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.
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.
please do same with Ray Toro!!
Oh my goodness yes that would be amazing!!!
@@wil94976 IKR!
I love listening to him play
i really needed this tonight
Ceb? Hiii
This made my day. What am awesome, relaxed and passionate chat about gear! Awesome.
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!
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 :)
47:42 You did some _WHAT?_ *What did you almost say, Frank?*
I belive in blonde Frank supremacy✨
MCR
Damn, he comes up with some dope pop punk riffs
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.
I've wanted a Frank Iero R.R. for soooooo long!!! Please do Ray next!!!
I can't play guitar but these frank videos are making me wanna learn so bad
DO IT!!
Frank Iero is like a cross between Peter Maximoff & Zacky Vengeance.
How lucky are we see this guy play riffs? Frank is badass no matter what. I recommend all things Iero.. :)
Next: Ray Toro plsssssss
I still have my Toro shirt
Me devolvió a la vida esto, totalmente una bomba no esperaba menos de ti Frank
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
Frank is so nice. This is going to be amazing!
Perfect time for a full scale MCR gig rundown as they are touring. Get on it pleaseee. It's long overdue
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 seems like a chill genuine dude. I appreciate that.
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
Gary Holt and a friend got me into My Chemical Romance! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
What a cool dude! Seems real down to earth but knows his stuff.
Blonde frank my beloved
That Klon has been staring me down the whole video
"a couple mc-recording stuff"
OMFG HE LOOKS SO LIKE "what the fuck did i say" AFTER SAYING THAT IM------
This was a great rig rundown! Nice to see frank pick up that custom!
Master of Octave..
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
я люблю фрэнка айеро больше жизни
I love Frank 😰
Love these rig rundown vids!! Awesome.
HIM!!!!!! THE MAN!!!
Please do a Ray Toro rig rundown!
That Every Time I Die T-Shirt!
FRANK IEROOOOOOOO 😭♥️
Please do Ray Toro!
Frank is such an inspiration. I got inspired to learn guitar because of him and ray.
Dude...This guy has at least three Klons on the floor...
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.
Imagine if Ray Toro did one too!!
Frank is amazing. Next: Ray Toro
37:35 babe what
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
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
See?
Fun AND interesting!
Anyone with spare love for Gary Holt's guitar violence is all good by me... Adore his sig. axe

Would prob sound better in the context of a full band mix.

Go for it!
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
