"Aaron: All my toms are square sizes. 10X10, 14X14, and 16X16. I really like square sizes. The 10X10 sounds really great. The shells are maple, and the finish is birds eye maple. My snare is a 14X5.5 Tama hand hammered bronze. It’s the only snare I’ve ever used. I love that snare. Same snare on every record. Even with my new band Palms."

In various Wave to Earth live performances, when John Cha would move to guitar, Daniel would take over bass duties using John's basses. In the picture seen above, Daniel is seen playing John's Epiphone Embassy Pro bass, finished in Vintage White, with 2 mudbucker pickups, 2 volume knobs and 1 tone knob, and an Ebony fingerboard. The bass itself still belongs to John Cha, but Daniel would only borrow it for certain songs with John on guitar.

In a recent photoshoot with Wave to Earth, Daniel Kim is depicted holding a Fender Starcaster, which is finished in Ebony Black and features a Maple Fingerboard, two Fender Humbuckers, and a Bisby Vibrato attachment. Daniel is frequently seen playing the Starcaster with The Poles rather than with Wave to Earth.

In an Instagram photo credited to @seungki_97, Daniel Kim is seen playing a heavy-relic'd Fairlane Camino electric guitar during a live performance of Wave to Earth on March 7, 2026. This guitar, made by Fairlane Guitars, a custom guitar builder based in London, features a Relic Black finish, a Bigsby Vibrato attachment, a single P90 pickup, and an Ebony fretboard with an inline headstock.

Used briefly by Lee in '87, this guitar appeared again, this time played by Thurston, in the "Dirty Boots" video. It can also be seen on the back cover of "Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star". If you watch the clips from the 11/03/88 Toronto show here you can see Thurston is using this guitar, presumably for "Silver Rocket"?

Lee Ranaldo is confirmed to use a Hagström Viking Electric Guitar, as evidenced by a photograph from the March/April 1985 Europe tour showing the sunburst guitar at his feet. Additionally, there is an image of Ranaldo playing this guitar with a screwdriver behind the 9th fret while Kim Gordon is singing and playing bass. Further images taken by Petra Gall on April 17th, 1985, show Thurston Moore using the same guitar, prepared with drumsticks, indicating its use in performances around this period.
