Pianos used by Boom Gaspar on Lightning Bolt

Grand Pianos

Yamaha C7

Avg price: $109.66

From an interview with Boom Gaspar and Josh Evans on Keyboard Mag. "For the recording of Lightning Bolt, the rig was completely different, says Evans, and was based on the needs of longtime Pearl Jam producer Brendan O’Brien. 'In the studio, we used a Yamaha C7 grand piano, Hammond B-3 with a Leslie 122, a Korg Triton, and lots of the new digital Mellotron M4000D,' continues Evans. 'Brendan tracks the synths through guitar pedals and analog filters — too many to keep track of here!'"
