Jonny Greenwood

It is undoubtedly the most commonly used guitar by Greenwood. Greenwoods model features a Maple neck and sunburst finish.

Jonny Greenwood, guitarist of Radiohead, can frequently be seen playing a vintage 1975 Starcaster on stage.

Jonny Greenwood achieves his signature heavy distortion using the Marshall ShredMaster pedal, as highlighted in a Musicradar feature.

For heavy distortion, Jonny used a Fender Eight-Five, notably on "Creep". He later obtained a Fender Studio 85 in mid-March 2008 as a spare for the regular Eighty-Five, though it has yet to see any public use. It is also very unlikely to have seen later studio use, as Jonny hardly ever uses it anymore save to perform older songs. (Cf. The King of Gear)

Melody Maker, February 5, 1994, "Paul Kolderie and Sean Slade: How To Record Rock Guitar" by Tom Doyle

For the Radiohead sessions, Paul and Sean used three core amps — a Marshall stack, a Vox AC30 and a small Fender 85, which surprisingly was responsible for the 'Creep' sound.

A nice shot of Jonny’s Fender Eighty-Five. Note that it is clearly not a Deluxe or Studio Eighty-Five. In addition, it can be seen that Jonny *does not*use the amp’s overdrive channel or reverb by that the knobs are all set at zero.

Jonny’s first AC30 was a 90’s re-issue AC306TB, which he acquired circa 1997. He has also used a few other AC30’s throughout his career, includng a Dave Petersen Special AC30. He uses Celestion Alnico Blue speakers for all of his Vox’s. With Radiohead, Jonny’s AC30s were mic’d with a Shure SM57 for quite some time. Circa 2008, he switched to an Audio-Technica AT3060. He has used other mic’s for his solo performances. Jonny keeps a direct box on top of his AC30. This is likely used simply to send the signal from his amp mics to the PA. thekingofgear.com

Jonny Greenwood can be seen using the Boss SD-1 pedal in this photo.

"Purchased and modified in 1996(probably) or 1997, after his original Tele was stolen in October 1995. This guitar has been converted into a Telecaster Plus and has the same modifications* and pickups as his main Plus. It is also from ‘92 - ‘93(?).Jonny brings this guitar on every tour as a backup.

Jonny’s No2 Telecaster is most likely an American Telecaster Standard. (The MIM Standard had 21 frets rather than 22, and the American Deluxe was contoured.) From the mid 90’s, so a first model American Standard. The bridge on the guitar was replaced with one shaped like that of a standard Telecaster, but which has a larger hole to fit a humbucker. Killswitch, strange knob, removal of volume knob.

At some time around In Rainbows era, Plank fitted it with a Korg Kaoss Pad KP2 screen(as can be seen in this photo), but it has yet to be used live."
