Eric Butler's Gear
Even though Eric is selling this guitar, he is well known to play T-60 guitars, such as on his Audiotree Live appearance. The headstock makes it clear to show that it is a T-60.
The SG he uses is without a pick guard so it might be a custom. But it is a red SG and it is used for live gigs
Eric has been playing a blue strat loaded with Duncan P-Rail pickups with Mom Jeans lately. These have a unique switching system that allows for lots of different single coil and humbucker tones.
Eric has been known to play no-frills Gibson humbucker-equipped guitars. In this instagram post he's playing a vintage walnut Gibson The Paul with his band Mom Jeans.
Here Eric is playing a 2014 Gibson SG special in sunburst. You can tell because of the 12th fret inlay and lack of pickguard. These came stock with covered pickups so they might be changed.
You can see a Music Man 212-HD 130 going to Eric's pedals at the begining of this video.
It can be seen at min 28:39 on Mom Jeans Audiotree session
On Dec. 5th, 2021, I saw Mom Jeans. play live along with Save Face, Pool Kids, and Origami Angel at The Glass House in Pomona, CA. I got security or a stage hand to take this picture of Eric Butler's pedal board for me. This pedal board can be verified in pieces by cross-referencing the attached picture to this @momjeans_ca post (https://www.instagram.com/p/CbiSxo9O__M/) and other posts on their main account. This board is clearly a Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 Plus based on it's label, AND the same green tape with words written in sharpie can be seen in the linked instagram post.

In this video, you can see Eric using a fender telecaster to teach hippo in the water. I'm not too sure if its a custom, but it definitely has some wear.
In the live performance video of "Girl Scout Cookies" by Mom Jeans, hosted by Little Elephant on their YouTube channel, Eric Butler is clearly observed utilizing a Gibson SG Special Electric Guitar. This identification is particularly discernable as the guitar is played without its pickguard, and its distinctive uncovered pickups are visible, confirming its model as an SG Special. This performance, captured in Toledo, OH, provides direct visual evidence of Butler's choice in musical gear for this instance.
In a TikTok post by Matthew Yankovich, the guitar tech for Mom Jeans, he showcases all the guitars they are using on tour, including a Nash T-52 used by Eric Butler.
