Aaron Marshall

Aaron is a PRS artist. He has multiple guitars from them but seems to prefer the Custom 24. His PRS guitars can be seen in music videos and live footage/still shots.

One of his four Aristides guitars featuring a whammy bar and Seymour Duncan SSS pickups. He calls it the "Twang Machine."

Aaron owns two identical Suhr Classic Antiques, one off-white and one mint. He calls the two "the twins."

Aaron returned to 6-string guitars with the tremolo version of the OS 6. From Instagram: "I'm definitely enjoying having a 6 string version of the Boden around."

The 070 is put to use when he dabbles in 7-string material. He owns two 070s: one matte orange and one sparkly violet.

Although nowadays Aaron uses almost solely Aristedes guitars for live shows (I know this because I saw him play live, and he used at least 5 different ones, with nothing else), he is very fond of his PRS 408. At 1:10 in the video, he calls it "the main dude".

Aaron has been using two Suhr guitars on his 2017 tour, headlining with Northlane.

Used on the late 2016 tour for both his and Plini's opening sets. The twin cabs are customized "with a Celestion V30 on the bottom and Creamback on top."

Aaron Marshall comments on this instagram photo: "This right here. This is something I'm really excited about. @morganamps SW50R + matching Vertical 2x12 w/ Celestion Creambacks ???????? | Shoutout to the man himself, Joe Morgan, for delivering this rig to me at The Mayan in LA a few weeks back. Also, shoutout @tosinabasi for putting me on. We spent day in and day out on this past tour dialling in the most insane tones with this amp. I'm hyped to be building my new rig around this beast "

So stoked to dig into this thing. I'm about to go IN.

Revealed the use of this pedal for dynamic low-gain guitar tones via Instagram.

Guitarists / recording enthusiasts, here's something worth your time. During pre production for this new record, I've been experimenting with direct recording amps with a @suhrcustom Reactive Load box and various impulse responses. While there are lots of quality impulses available, I find it a little bit time consuming and sometimes fatiguing to sift through folders of various microphone combinations and placements, etc... Over the last few months I've often thought, wouldn't it be great if I could dial in a cabinet with the same flexibility as dialling in an amp or pedal? Neunaber Audio has done it and it rules, hard.

The Iconoclast is not based on impulse responses and the fixed parameters that typically come with the territory. The 3 band EQ allows you to essentially determine the size of the cabinet (low), the mid frequency / dampening response (mid), and top end roll off (high) which emulates the difference between various speakers types. You can do everything from dial in a tight 1x12 type feel with the high end detail of a Creamback all the way to a 4x12 style thump in the bottom end with the same mid range / high end roll off as a V30. They also put a noise gate in which is super useful. There is also a software editor if you're the type to get under the hood and this thing even does a really nice stereo spread with only a mono input.

If you guys are direct recording with amplifiers and are frustrated by menu diving or the confusion of what even sounds balanced or "right" when dialling in sounds, I would highly recommend checking out the Iconoclast. Shout out to Neunaber for sending this over. I'm really impressed with the design concept on this thing

Shout out to Walrus Audio Effects for sending over their new Warhorn overdrive ???????? One of my favourite qualities in an OD is its ability to retain note clarity at higher gain levels. I've got the gain up fairly high here and you can still pick apart dense chords, but most importantly, the stringy/twangy nature of the split position I tend to favour in this guitar comes through beautifully. I play a couple of chords on their own and then play along with something I'm working on so you can hear how this kind of tone functions in context. [just realized as I'm captioning this that I coincidentally could have not worn a better shirt today
