Myles Kennedy

In the live performance of "Watch Over You" in Amsterdam, as seen in the video by AlterBridge571 on YouTube, Myles Kennedy plays a Taylor 814ce acoustic-electric guitar.

Myles Kennedy mentions his PRS McCarty Electric Guitar as a guitar he always goes to at home, here In this interview.

At :42 he says "I'm going to pull out my favorite one, which is actually my go to now." He also goes on to say it's loaded with Seymour Duncan Custom custom's to differentiate between his and Marks tone. He says, at 1:20, that he uses a tone pro bridge on it since they "resonate real well."

0:44 - Myles uses the Seymour Duncan Custom Custom in the bridge position of his favourite guitar, a PRS SC-245.

Myles Kennedy says the PRS SE Angelus is one of his favorite acoustic guitars in this interview.

The IG URL linked is a picture of Myles playing a sunburst telecaster at a live show in the Manchester Arena. In the comments, Myles replies to @mattsguitarshop and says "yes sir. A Fender Highway One I found on eBay that I ended up writing a lot of the new record with." This was in December 2019, so he was referring to the 'Walk the Sky' album. He also uses a reliced (or legitimately old?) black tele of unverified manufacture during that tour, as seen on various videos, including https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugPiJmbXVb8 - he plays it for the majority of the show, but for timestamp purposes: 1:31:05.

Myles Kennedy says the Diezel Herbert 180W Tube Guitar Head is the amp he uses with Alter Bridge.

"It’s funny. I have a few older guitars, a ’67 Gibson SG and a ’67 335, which I love dearly. There’s this PRS McCarty they sent me about seven years ago, and there’s something about that guitar that I always tend to go to when I’m at home. It just feels good in my hands. It’s just very comfortable. It sounds good." - Myles Kennedy.

Myles started to use the PRS McCarty 594 core model in recording sessions of Alter Bridge's 5th studio album "The Last Hero"

"This is the pedal I used for my leads with Alter Bridge on AB III and Fortress. The perfect balance of sustain and clarity without changing the tone of the amp."

Myles uses the PRS S2 Vela for most live performances of "This Side of Fate" with Alter Bridge in 2017. Most notably used during the performance in the "Live at the Royal Albert Hall" DVD. The video linked is from the performance in Luxembourg on June 26, 2017. The guitar can be clearly seen for almost the entirety of the video.

"With Slash I’m using the Mesa Mark IV and with Alter Bridge I’m using the Diezel Herbert. I was using the Diezel in conjunction with the Mesa Mark IV in Alter Bridge and basically what was happening is the front of house guy was like, 'I’m not running a lot of the Mesa, because it’s so similar sonically to Mark’s sound.'" - Source.

Extract from the interview: “I do have an OX. I didn't use it that much, I actually use that right now as a power soak more than anything so I can crank up my old Fenders. On the demos, really the only guitar sound I kept gravitating towards was UA’s ‘55 Deluxe plugin. And it’s an amazing plugin, it sounds just like an old [Fender] Deluxe.

"So what was interesting was I listened to the demos and I really liked the way that kind of amp sounds with these songs, so I went on a hunt for that particular era of Deluxes. I think it’s the 5E3 circuit. It’s very simple but it’s such an incredible sound. There’s a reason Billy Gibbons uses those and so many guys gravitate towards those amps.

“So I found one of those, my buddy Bobby at River City Guitars, I said, “Hey man I’m looking for one of these amps, can you round one up for me?” He found one that was in a studio over in Seattle and it’s pretty much the sound of this record.”

At the beginning of this video, a Line 6 DL4 can be seen on Myles Kennedy's pedalboard, coming after his Fulltone Wah in the signal chain.

"This is my main pedal for modulation effects. It replicates an arsenal of chorus, phaser, and tremolo effects very nicely. I've used the tri-chorus setting on a number of tracks I've recorded with the Mayfield Four and Alter Bridge."

Tuned down a half-step and strung with D’Addario EXL140s (.010-.052), Myles Kennedy’s No. 1 is this PRS SC 245

"Lead vocals for Slash’s touring band are handled by Myles Kennedy, who uses a Shure UHF-R® wireless system with Beta 58A® capsule. Backing vocals are hardwired SM58®s," states this article.

Alter Bridge uses this microphone for recording vocals (2:00)

Kennedy runs two Diezel Herbert MK1 heads, which he controls with a Diezel Columbus foot controller. The amps run into two Diezel 4x12 cabs loaded with green Tone Tubby Hempcone 40/40 Ceramic speakers.

At 4:31 you can see the PRS Mira Myles is using

This was in the Slash ft. Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators show in 2013

The video for "The Great Beyond" features live footage from the "Year of the Tiger" tour. At 4:05 a Logjam Prolog Stompbox can be seen. Alter Bridge's manager Tim Tournier, who played guitar and bass on the tour, told Total Guitar: "Then he uses the Logjam Prolog a lot in place of a drummer" (https://www.pressreader.com/australia/total-guitar/20180511/282299615792362).

Developed in collaboration with Kennedy.

After nearly 30 years of touring, sE and I joined up to create the V7 MK - my personalized take on their flagship vocal mic. The V7 MK dynamic vocal microphone has the perfect combination of extended frequency response and external bleed rejection to help me hear every detail while keeping me from pushing too hard on stage!

"I used this pedal to replicate the effect I used on my “Blackbird” solo. If you dig the Robin Trower or Jimi Hendrix Uni-Vibe sound, I can't recommend this pedal enough."

I wrote to him once at Myspace, where he confirmed using the sm58 for live use. Furthermore, you can see it on the video.

The Radial Switchbone is a fantastic addition to my rig. It allows me to run my two favorite amps at the same time without compromising my tone. The mid boost is the coolest feature. I turn it on when I need a lead to sing and sustain without thinning out my sound. If only I had this pedal 20 years earlier!

Here's a pic of all our pedal boards. @officialmyleskennedy on top and @markttremonti bottom. Mine is super exciting in the middle ????

"I'm a huge fan of Fulltone pedals. A friend of mine turned my on to the Clyde back in 1997. I've used this pedal religiously since the day I bought it. It sounds amazing. It’s built like a tank. And it’s held up without any problems for 16 years."

"This is the effect I used on the intro lead to “Before Tomorrow Comes.” It's an extremely versatile distortion/fuzz with an octave-up switch. It’s a great effect to kick on when you want to push your lead tone into extreme territory."

It is shown on the official Taylor website and been used in an endorsment(of Taylor guitars) show by Myles and Mark back in 2007
