Justin Beck

"Technically speaking, that’s a six-string bass — a baritone Fender Jaguar tuned like a Fender VI — for audible space where typically my guitar parts would have lived." - from https://bassmagazine.com/artists/justin-beck-glassjaws-post-punk-bass-legend

Excerpt from the interview:

Justin Beck plays bass and guitar on the band’s new album, but live he sticks to 6-string. His current stage go-to is a Music Man StingRay, but he also keeps various Les Pauls in his arsenal.

This picture was taken at Mohawk, Austin on July 14, 2018 when Glassjaw and Quicksand toured together.

Pictured above, Beck can be seen playing the Strat at Musink 2017. He states in an interview with No Echo that it is the Fender HSS Stratocaster

What’s in “the coffin (guitar road case) these days?

Music Man Stingray and a Fender Strat HSS."

Quoted from this interview: Q : You’re known for playing Les Paul Classics. Is that what you played on the album?

My go-to for years was the Classic. And I would hype them up with EMG 81s because I always felt my amps on the road would always be shy on output. So I’d overcompensate with the active pickups.

Excerpt from the interview:

Speaking briefly about the guitar during the festival performance, Beck mentioned that he bought the guitar in 2015 and the only thing he’s done to make it his own is swap out the standard “sideways” Vibrato with a Vibrola because "it never truly went back to the zero position." He’s really enjoyed jamming on it because of the guitar's thinner neck and he’s loved having a functioning whammy bar since he hasn’t owned a guitar with one since 1993.

This is the signature guitar Justin has with schecter. The guitar is loaded with schecter apocolypse pickups. The guitar comes in a natural finish. The guitar has the year 1993 on the 12th fret. 1993 is the year glassjaw was founded. Justin also has a matching signature bass in the same finish

In an article by Paul Kobylensky on Premier Guitar titled "Glassjaw’s Justin Beck: Double Agent," Justin Beck confirms that he used a white Gibson Les Paul Deluxe to record the album "Material Control," opting for this model over the Les Paul Classics he had used previously. Beck mentions that he used the stock pickups, which are typically mini humbuckers in the Les Paul Deluxe.
