Dan Briggs' Gear
Dan has owned and played this bass since he was 16. This bass was what he modled his signature bass after. he used this bass live and in the studio until His signature bass was made.
Briggs took a more svelte approach for his pedalboard on the Coma Ecliptic tour. His stomp station includes a Boss TU-2 tuner, a Wamper Faux Tape Echo (used for a constant warbling tone), an Electro-Harmonix Bass Micro Synth (ideal for “Tom Sawyer”-ish bass-synth washiness), a Boss DD-3 Digital Delay, Boss TR-2 Tremolo, Boss PS-3 Digital Pitch Shifter/Delay (Briggs’ favorite pedal, which he currently uses as a chorus), and a Darkglass Electronics Duality Fuzz (which replaced a Keeley-modded Ibanez Tube Screamer because the Duality has a mix knob that allows Briggs to keep a more natural tone of low-end fury)
According to Premier Guitar, he plays this signature bass. It is modeled after the same bass he owned when he was 16.
He uses the same amp head over a decade, according to Premier Guitar's rig rundown.

In the video for Future is Behind Us, Dan is shown with a Moog Sub Phatty. The logo, color, and length of the synth make me believe its a Phatty and not 37. He plays it in the latter half of the video though this screen is most clear of what it is. Also, in Dan's instagram account he shows a picture from he's live setup at Garden Grove where the Phatty is clearly visible
