Jack Antonoff

According to Shure's artist page, Bleachers' Jack Antonoff uses Shure's Beta SM57 microphone for his guitar and to mic his snare top.

He plays a Candy apple red Fender Jaguar with two single coil pickups in the video, All the Pretty girls.

In an NPR article, Shane Timm - Jack Antonoff's guitar tech - talks about his troubles with Antonoff's vintage 1968 Gibson ES-330. Previous to this role, Timm worked as a technician for Mercedes Benz and BMW, and talks about his aptitude for fixing things:

“It's another piece of equipment belonging to Antanoff that gives Timm the most trouble: a red, vintage 1968 Gibson ES-330 electric guitar. Timm says he's fixed the instrument so many times it'll eventually be "a very old body with all brand new parts."

"It's like it's a person almost, and it wants to just mess with me. And it could be as simple as like, [Jack] just set it down on the ground a little awkwardly and for some reason as it wobbles around on the floor a wire decides to go," he says. "But every time I tackle it and I fix it, ... I fix something new.”” (original source here)

Jack Antonoff is seen playing a Gretsch 6106 Princess during Bleachers' performance of "How Dare You Want More" on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The guitar matches a model previously sold in Brooklyn, where Antonoff resides, notable for its similar wear and distinctive yellow color.

In this photo, Jack Antonoff can be seen playing an Epiphone Wilshire Phant-o-matic guitar in a live performance with Fun at the Bunbury Music Festival in Cincinnati.

If I have a sound, and I want it to just sort of live on, but not just with a reverb or an echo, something a little more odd, Crystallizer’s a really cool program.

Excerpt from the article:

the right side of [Antonoff's] studio features...a Yamaha U1 upright piano.

In this image from Bleachers’s performance at SXSW 2019, Antonoff can be seen playing his Fender American Performer Jazzmaster in 3-color sunburst. Guitar is modified to have the traditional vintage Jazzmaster tremolo.

I got really into the [Korg] M1. It’s very goofy until you find that one sound. The piano on [Lorde’s] ‘Green Light’ is a mixture of an upright piano and an M1 piano. And these sort of like dance sounds that come off an M1 are exciting.

"Antonoff’s favourite outboard reverb is the spring in his Roland Chorus Echo. Plug-in-wise, he tends to use the Waves Renaissance Reverb and Valhalla’s Plate, SoundToys’ EchoBoy for delay and, for more extreme effects, SoundToys’ FilterFreak, PanMan and Crystallizer granular delay".

This is Jacks collection of guitars. All the way on the right, you can see the National Glenwood Guitar.

This photo of Jack Antonoff's pedalboard, taken during a Fun show at The Glass House in Pomona, CA on March 24, 2012, reveals that Antonoff uses a pair of Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Nano Reverb pedals. They can be seen side-by-side in the bottom row of the pedalboard.

At 4:56, Jack Antonoff plays his Juno-6, going over the making of "I Wanna Get Better"

“Hey what's up, my name is Jack Antonoff from the band Fun. I'm sitting here with my Vox AC30 Hand-Wired, which is my favorite amp, and the only amp that I play”

Antonoff talks about falling in love with this amp after he heard Jeff Tweedy of Wilco playing it. He describes its sound as a “perfect blend of clean and dirty at the same time.”

In this video he also goes through some of his settings on the AC30. He mentions that Fun’s second studio album Some Nights was recorded entirely with this amp. He uses it live on tour as well.

According to Shure's artist page, Bleachers' Jack Antonoff uses Shure's KSM9 microphone for Lead vocals.

In this video an SM7B can be seen on Jack's desk.

At the 6:35 minute mark of this video Jack is shown using Ableton Live in the studio (almost positive it is Ableton 9 due to when the video was released)

But I have a [Sequential] Prophet 5 and I haven’t plugged it in in months. You go through phases with stuff. You get bored and you have to rediscover it.

Typically, his vocal chain is a Wunder Audio CM7 Suprema microphone into BAE preamp and a Tube-Tech CL1B compressor.

In this article, Jack shows off his Vintage Telecaster for EW magazine: https://ew.com/music/jack-antonoff-studio-photos/?slide=5670902#5670902

At 2:20 in this video, one can clearly see Jack use an MPC Studio Slimline while recording the song "I Wanna Get Better."

At the 1:12 mark you can watch the Binson being used on the Linn beat in the atached video.

The only other thing that’s sort of random that I like is AIR’s Filter Gate.

In this video, Jack Antonoff can be seen playing a Gibson SJ-200 Standard in a live performing "Somebody That I Used to Know" with Fun and Hayley Williams on BBC 1 Radio.

An Ibanez TS808 Tube Screamer pedal can be seen on Jack Antonoff's pedalboard. It's the second pedal from the right in the bottom row of the pedalboard. This photo is from a Fun show, live at The Glass House in Pomona, CA on March 24, 2012.

In this provided video, Jack Antonoff uses his Fender Stratocaster Deluxe Candy Apple Red to play "Rollercoaster".

“I used a Yamaha DX7 a lot on that song, which is so uniquely ’80s,” in reference to Taylor Swift's "Out Of The Woods".

around 55 second he's playing the LinnDrum in the attached video

Again you can see the Mellowtron thru the whole video but you can clearly see it at 5:29 in the attached video.

A big thing I’ve been doing is I put a [SoundToys] Tremolator on long synth pads and sort of create 16th-note arpeggios out of that.
