Switchers to switch switchers, which switch pedal boards. Pretty sure just having one of his cables is gonna be a major score.
🙏🏾 It was an honor and a pleasure to hang out with the PG fam and do this Rig Rundown - big thanks to John, Perry, and Chris. Really stoked about the giveaway as well - good luck everybody!
A true gentleman (and mean shredder)!
Thanks for sharing so much info RJ. I love the multiple board setups .. and your colour choices.
Awesome work John and the Rig Rundown crew!!
Nice Spinal Tap shirt 👌
Thanks R.J, for sharing Your Time and Knowledge with us. Much Appreciated.
RJ I am a poor man from the Philippines, can you please spare some change so I could buy myself a 140 dollar guitar ?
Rj is an absolutely fantastic guitar player. I love his channel.
This is definitely one of the best rig rundowns ever.
Can't wait to dig into this. He has some great gear. So happy for his success. You couldn't find a nicer or better guitar player on earth I bet.
Love the skeleton shirt. Same one Nigel was wearing In the famous it goes to 11 scene where he was also showing off his guitars and amps.
I was gonna say the same thing. Love this guy, his playing and his YT channel. RJ is a cool dude.
Ronquillo rocks. Very generous with his knowledge too
Good to see RJ get the recognition he deserves……
Great player, great gear, even better dude!
Couldn't agree more!
One of the most enjoyable rig rundowns- so much cool stuff!
One of my favorite guitarist. He can play any style.
whenever you watch an RJ pedal demo he looks all business and in the zone. Here, laid back and easy going. Honestly wasn't expecting that. Cool guy. Great player.
In case you didn't catch the Easter Egg in this video, R.J. is wearing the same shirt Nigel Tufnel wore in Spinal Tap.
RJ is the man , my favorite guitarist to watch. He can drop into any era and take you to the bridge. Love his blues and soul
Definitely two of the nicest guys from the scene in one video. Thank you so much for this great talk about the thing we love so much...guitars...greetings from Germany!!! And keep on with your style and your great work, John. And, RJ, love your playing!!
Played for some of the biggest names in music. Yet such a layed back dude who just loves to chill and jam. Good stuff
Another great rig rundown!
What an amazing and inspired player RJ is. I also loved that he mentioned Dann Huff being one of his inspirations. Dann is one of the best !
"Tonehenge" I love it!! LOL!
Love watching RJ’s demos on Airline Guitars this was an inspiring demo also, great player great artist. RJ has some awesome guitars.
This was so much fun to watch, it felt like just hanging out with two awesome dudes who love music.
I love RJ's playing...One of the best at phrasing interesting lines. Thanks.
RJ is a icon of mine. He makes me want to play more and more and get better
I had a GK back on mid 80's...Super groovy overdrive with echo and chorus. That's all you need...You rock RJ thx for being a inspiration
Love RJ and this rundown was great. Thanks for doing it.
Such a great guitarist and what an inspiring rig. 👊😎🖤🎶
I was waiting for this one Thanks
Congratulation RJ! Keep up the amazing hard work!!!
This is awesome. RJ is absolutely amazing. Great vid!
RJ you are quite the sonic scientist ... you pedal board defies just about everything I thought I knew about building a rig. Inspiring, thanks for sharing your thoughts and creativity with us.
I’m a drummer. And have no real idea what you guys are talking about when you get technical about guitars.
But this and all of the rig run downs are such a pleasure to watch and listen too.
Lovely, talented and gracious people that are passionate about what they do.
Recently stumbled across this guy via LPD Pedals demos. I just bought the Eighty7 that he uses - awesome pedal. Been binge watching his videos as he’s such a great player. Very cool rundown
Hey @Stu Gunn R.J. does a great live TH-cam stream every Saturday at 10:15am EST If you want to check it out, it is pretty fun.
RJ is such a great guitarist!
Such a great player! Definitely my number 1 youtube guitar hero!
What an amazingly epically awesome rig rundown!! Loved being a fly on the wall for that, awesome chat between 2 killer players, thanks guys, cheers!!
Two GIANTS!! what a pleasure - an whole hour!!! wow!! Thanks Premier!!
Sporting a Nigel Tufnel skeleton tee for his rig rundown. I like the way you think, RJ.
an exact inner structure, done in a tee shirt
RJ has to be the most versatile guitarist alive
Wow those boards! He’s a high talent player always chasing the tone, love it. Seems like a really cool dude too. Great rundown.
Nice to see a doug rappoport model. Such a great player and killer guitar!
Love this guy !
Two greats! Thanks for sharing all you hard earned knowledge guys 🇦🇺
That rs is killer and that design is sweet
RJ is the coolest!
Amazing player, and one of the best guitar testers! 👏👏
Fab playing. Love your collection. ...and that tremelo!
“This is my exact inner structure in a T-shirt.” “It’s not green though...” “...it is green.”
Very cool rig run down!!! Love that vibe pedal!
My two favorite dudes! Great gear!
This was a great rundown. R.J. is great guitar player and obviously a cool guy.
Two great guys
RJ is my favourite guitar player. He is so so so so good.
Lovely guy! And great chops!
I love these two.
awesome rj
Oh, man -- had one of those 250ml amps. Loved it. Super reliable, and ridiculously easy to transport.
had one of those 250MLS back in the early 80s.. When I was in the Navy I took it on the ship and played it... lot of fun
The Mythos High Road is one of my favorite pedals. Great rundown.
Very much enjoy both these guys. This moves right along with NEW and interesting gear! RJ is wonderful in his approach and is very easy to understand.
RJ is awesome! What a player.
Loved it!
Nobody does a rig run down like John Bohlinger and RJ Ronquillo's demos are always interesting. He did a great job here of sampling the gear without falling into the ego trap of making a performance out of every opportunity. 👍
Great Rundown and seemingly a real sweetheart of a guy. Believe it or not, I gigged for a couple years in the 80’s with a GK ML 250 through a Marshall 4/12 Slanted Cab. It sounded huge, wish I’d never offed it!🙁
I do believe you. I did the exact same thing back then.
Oh man, my brother had that exact Gillian Kruger amp - back in the 80's. I never see those anymore. If I remember correct - that thing could peel the paint off the walls. My God, that thing was so heavy and dense sounding. It was so freaking loud. He was a big Iron Maiden fan.
What a beast!
BEST RIG RUNDOWN EVER😎😎
RJ is phenomenal
The internet's favorite guitar player.
It somehow makes me feel better knowing that an absolute master guitar player like RJ still only plays a simple G chord to test out a guitar 18:44
Great interview
Two very likeable guitar-dudes - great show! 👍🏻
Great player and killer gear, and such a likeable character. Thumbs up!
Did they smoke a joint before the interview. I just get that vibe. Which is great. Lol
Totaly awesome dude!
RJ is awesome. And with pickup killswitch Buckethead style!
Great player and a nice guy. Thanks 👍
the pink 80s start i love it am getting my floyd start done in that colour 😍
Sweet times !
John Bollinger. You have the best job in the world except for maybe a jet pilot..and you sir deserve it!
Eep opp ork ah-ah
And that means I love you
That GK still goes for big bucks around here, if you can find one! Great rundown..thanks!
Nice to see a Morgan amp get some love.
Wonderful and knowledgeable guitarist
Yeah man... Awesome rundown, lots of cool toys :0)
I played through that Gk250ml with a Marshall 2x12 bottom from 90 to 93, it was the bomb dizzle. Surprising how much output it had, it filled out the bottom well. The tuned Marshall helped fatten and warm it up so it sounded almost like a mesa boogie…it was easy to toss into the backseat and move without breaking your back hah.
I rememberr seeing Alex Lifeson using one as an onstage monitor in a Rush video ~ I forget which song. Great post - enjoyed listening to you both.
Never thought I would see a rig rundown in the TARDIS
Great guitars. Great amps. Great guy !
Rj man, Mabuhay!
RJs awesome
RJ: “I’m still learning...”
TH-cam: yeah right...
RJ can make anything sound absolutely amazing
The thumb love on the little Morgan1
that dude seems like a really nice guy,.. some people give off that personna and he certainly does. Amazing guitar as well.
First saw RJ on a bunch of Eastwood demos from years ago. Even then I was like “who is this guy? He absolutely kills.” Then he started his TH-cam & Ive been watching him ever since. Dude is super knowledgeable about gear, can rip & is a humble nice guy.
11:55 That guitar 💞
I almost pulled the trigger on the novo serus j when it came out.
Tonehenge! What a great setup!
I had a Nash S-63 (in Seafoam Green) a few years ago. Idiot I am, I borrowed it to a friend, a German pro musician, and he liked it so much, he won´t give it back to me... So I gave him the guitar - and regret it until today... It´s hard for me to write it down, the shame is to much...oh my gosh. Anyway, Thumbs up for Bill Nash and his fine work. No need to spent your money in the Fender Custom Shop (or Gibson´s master built). I got the chance to play a Nash treated Les Paul, it was awesome....!
That's the Grez Mendocino Junior, having a solid redwood body (which is a light wood anyway). The regular Mendocino (two pickups) is chambered mahogany with an old-growth redwood top. I used to work in old wineries, and I've seen the wood change color just like that. I'll never understand why builders don't round unbound bodies over like Strats are, under the right arm. That makes such a comfort improvement.
One of THE best shows
