Jake Kiszka

In the Premier Guitar "Greta Van Fleet Rig Rundown Trailer" on YouTube, Jake Kiszka mentions using a 1961 Gibson Les Paul SG Standard.

In a Premier Guitar "Rig Rundown" video, Jake Kiszka of Greta Van Fleet is shown using the Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Nano reverb pedal. Since his amplifier lacks a reverb channel, he relies on this pedal to achieve reverb effects, including a "super verb" sound when desired.

They are talking about it at 24:50

"...well this is an interesting one: that's called a cootercaster, so it's kinda like built from a Fender body and these are actually lap steel pickups." "my producer actually had this made and I asked him if I could borrow it and take it on tour[...] and I use this for slide work."

This is his "overdrive" pedal which he uses for boost.

Jext Telez produced a Limited Run of these pedals, which were designed to meet Jake's personal taste on the well known Range Lord. This pedal can be seen in recent live performances of their new album, The Battle at Garden's Gate, that were uploaded on YouTube. It can be clealy seen at 0:12 of the video linked in this upload.

In a performance on August 15, 2017, at The Basement in Columbus, Ohio, Jake Kiszka of Greta Van Fleet can be seen playing a Gibson SG Classic, as captured in the audio recording by Dewey Cole.

"The Belchfire's got a powerful crunchy chime that's letting me do things that I wasn't able to with my other amps. The spooky clarity reaches into all corners of the room. It's a little loud ...we might have to swap the tube rectifier back in.'' - Jake Kiska, Greta Van Fleet

RESONANT, BELL-LIKE, TOP-END CLARITY

Jake can be seen at this video using an ocd pedal to achieve driven tones without his amp.

in this interview jake talks about using a mellotron pedal to create the tone for trip the light fantastic

" There’s a song we have called Brave New World that has this fuzzy, crackly tone that really overdrives the pre-amp where I used a Jext Telez Face.

“It’s this big, long rectangular pedal that is super obnoxious and sounds brilliant, I’ll probably be adding it to my board so I can recreate that solo tone.'

At 0:23 you can see two Marshall DSL 100H.

Jake can be seen using this amp in this youtube video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZUD-5oa7Hc

In this live performance video, the pedal can be seen when a top view camera is used to film the whole band, and it can also be heard when the main riff is played.

On page two, on the right it is said to be a 1965. It also says he has only used it in studio.

The amp can be seen in the background as one of Jake's amps used in recent live performances.

This is the guitar Jake used at Coachella in 2018. This is presumably because his '61 was getting repairs for a crack on the back. This guitar is a 1963 style SG with the Lyre vibrola. It is possible that it is an original, however it looks rather mint condition, so the SG original is my best guess. This is also(I think) the only gig he used it at. The next day he was using his '61.

He steps on it at 1:32 for the solo

REVISION- it is actualy a 535q wah, from some concert photos of front row seats you can see the control dial on the side. "Another new thing I’ve been honing in on is my wah-wah pedals. Over the last few months, I’ve been incorporating a Dunlop wah to add more dimension to my playing during the shows.”".

It is listed on page two as one of his amps.

-revision- It's a '67 style V. You can see Jake with a Gibson Flying V. The color is some kind of burst (tobacco burst or something)

It can be seen at 0:12 in this video, and heard in the beginning of the live version of Built By Nations.

This I believe was Jakes first serious amp. He used it in the early years of Greta Van Fleet and was used in the unreleased songs circa 2014. Used in possibly their second gig here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iElDmv8BXs, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65gHHOw5Hlc.

Jake Kiszka used a 1966 Fender Telecaster in Lake Placid Blue, owned by Blackbird Studios, during the recording of Greta Van Fleet's "Anthem of the Peaceful Army." This information is detailed in Tessa Jeffers' article on Premier Guitar.

In the first Song, Jake plays a blue Les Paul with a bigsby, the Bridge Pickup was changed. It can be seen at 2:07. I don't know the exact model, but it has dot inlays, black knobs, a bigsby, nothing but the Gibson logo on the headstock. It also could be a Studio Model with After Market Bigsby.

At 4:09 in Greta Van Fleet's video for "Candlelight Sessions – Broken Bells (Live)", Jake can be seen playing a new SG. It appears to be a Chicago Music Exchange (where he got his main '61 Les Paul/SG from) Exclusive Gibson USA SG Standard in Oxblood w/Tortoise Pickguard & T-Type Pickups, modified with '61-Style Sideways Vibrola (also like on his main '61 Les Paul/SG).

This pedal can be seen at 0:12 of the video linked.

This amp can be seen in the Rig Rundown. He bought it at Chicago Music Exchange and it was once owned by Guns N' Roses' Richard Fortus.

He uses a standard Gibson J-45. He states this at 29:35.

In the Premier Guitar "Rig Rundown" video, Jake Kiszka is shown using a Marshall 4x12 1982A cabinet.

Jake Kiszka is seen with a 1998 Danelectro DC-59/DC-2 First Reissue in a photo he posted on Instagram. This Korean-made reissue is identifiable by its black gloss neck and distinctive white and black volume and tone knobs. While it's unclear if the guitar was used in a studio setting, the Instagram post clearly shows Jake owning this specific model.
