Josh Rand is confirmed to own an Ibanez Prestige 12-String guitar, as detailed on Reverb. This instrument is distinctively customized, with a neck from a Prestige RG1512BK and a body constructed by the Ibanez LACS. To address the headstock-heavy nature following hardware upgrades, a custom mahogany body was created to balance the weight when using a strap. The guitar's pickups were also upgraded to EMG models: Bridge 81, Middle SA, and Neck 60. The serial number of this guitar is #F0930414, and it was used on the "Hydrograd" album.

Effects Pedals used by Johny Chow on Hydrograd
Darkglass Electronics Alpha Omega Ultra Dual Bass Preamp/OD Pedal
Avg price: $426.76
However, this setup is about to change, he adds. “I’m going to switch it up, actually: I’m still sticking with the pedals, but I’ve recently become a Darkglass artist. Man, those guys really know what they’re doing, and their new Alpha Omega Dual Distortion is amazing - Jon Stockman from Karnivool was part of the design team on that pedal.
“I used the Darkglass B7K to record the album, because the Alpha Omega wasn’t out yet. The B7K was my drive on all the songs: I didn’t even use the Sansamp, apart from a little bit of the plugin afterwards. The Alpha Omega is on my pedalboard now, along with the Sansamp and a prototype that Eden gave me called the Terranova, which has an amazing clean tone - big and boomy. Those three pedals will be responsible for my tone when we go on tour.”
