Jamie Cook

In the picture above, Jamie Cook can be seen playing a Gibson ES-335 with Bigsby.

This is one of the most well-known guitars Jamie used as he's been using ES-335's since 2006. The version with Bigsby has been used since the Humbug era.

In a performance of "Do I Wanna Know" (Glastonbury 2013) Jamie Cook can be seen playing a Heritage Cherry color Gibson SG guitar, fitted with a Bigsby.

In this video of Arctic Monkeys performing the songs Teddy Picker and Crying Lightning at Eurockéennes de Belfort 2011, Jamie Cook can be seen playing a Fender Telecaster Custom. 0:25 into the video provides a good look at the guitar and some of its details. The pickup configuration (a humbucker in the neck position and a single coil in the bridge) identifies it as a Tele Custom. It also looks to have a tremolo installed. The concert lighting makes it hard to tell, but the finish appears to be "Mocha", paired with a black pickguard.

Another video of Arctic Monkeys playing Lollapalooza 2011 shows Jamie Cook with this same guitar at the 27:24 mark, during the song Crying Lightning. The lighting shows off the guitar finish more clearly.

Jamie Cook plays a Gibson Les Paul during recording and live sessions when playing in Arctic Monkeys. Jamie seems to be a fan of Gibson guitars, playing a ES-335 in every tour and also a SG for AM. This Les Paul was first seen during the “Teddy Picker” music video. The music video features mainly footage of Arctic Monkeys recording the song in a live take. The guitar was seen played by Cook during the tour as well.

Alex Turner, the lead singer and lead guitarist of the band, played Jamie’s Guitar during the recording of the bands fourth album, “Suck It and See.” In an interview with producer of the mentioned album James Ford, he stated “Alex Turner's rig typically featured him playing his faithful Fender Bronco... or occasionally a Gibson Les Paul... through his crocodile‑skin Selmer Zodiac and '60s Magnatone amps. "’Al does more rhythmy stuff, and for that it was just pretty straight, quite bright and punchy into the Selmer. We sometimes ran that and his old Magnatone at the same time. It has a really nice vibrato on it and reverb. So sometimes we'd mix those two signals together, but just onto the one track.’”

Another section of the same interview with Ford, he mentions “A new sonic development for Arctic Monkeys on Suck It And See are the saturated Electro‑Harmonix Big Muff‑styled lead breaks that feature throughout — played mostly by Turner, but also by Jamie Cook. ‘It isn't a Big Muff actually,’ Ford points out. ‘But we were trying to get that Les Paul neck-pickup sound. They've got quite a few of those weird, boutiquey fuzz pedals that give you that warm, creamy fuzz, so we used that for the solos mainly. There was one called the Coopersonic Valve Slapper that we used quite a lot.’”

This interview mentions the use of Jamie’s Les Paul, as Turner was seen using the Gibson throughout that tour. Their next Album, AM, also features Alex playing this guitar. Seen throughout their live shows and pictures of the recording of the album.

The image shown shows Jamie playing the Les Paul during the Tranquility Base Hotel And Casino tour, as Alex stopped playing it in favor of sticking with his Fender Jazzmaster. Jamie started playing the Gibson again for only a handful of songs, sticking with his ES-335 as his primary guitar for a majority of the setlist.

Used throughout the early days of Arctic Monkeys, Jamie Cock used a white Fender Telecaster from around 2004-2005. We can see it is a Mexican as it has 21 frets. This does not appear on any recordings and was only used for early gigs.

In a photo from the beginning of the 2022 tour, Jamie Cook is seen playing a Gibson ES-335 Custom Black Bigsby.

Jamie Cook can be seen playing a Gibson Firebird during the music video for Arctic Monkeys single “Body Paint” off of their 7th Studio LP The Car. This is the first time Jamie has been seen playing this guitar, though not used live for the song, it fits in well with the type of guitars he typically uses as he favors Gibsons the most.

It can’t be determined if this is a modern reissue of the Firebird or if it is a vintage model. Jamie uses more modern gear than Alex Turner and Nick O’Malley, leading it it being more likely a modern model of the Gibson. The Firebird features three Humbuckers leading to more tonality than other Gibsons, the guitar could have been used to record the track.

In this Youtube video at 1:28, Jamie Cook can be seen using a Fender Telecaster with a BIgsby Vibrato. Judging off the bridge and the Bigsby, I asssume it is a custom guitar.
