In a live performance of "Bath Salts" by Highly Suspect, as captured by DyAnn Rusaw on YouTube, Luke Gruntz of cleopatrick uses the DigiTech Whammy Pitch-Shifting Pedal. This pedal is crucial in creating the band's distinctive sound by allowing him to emulate bass tones through his guitar, effectively substituting the need for a bass player.

Luke Gruntz bought this 2011 Gibson SG Standard used in Pittsburgh, PA most likely in 2019 when touring on cleopatrick's second EP, "the boys." It was soon modified with a McNelly Stagger Swagger in the neck and a custom-wound McNelly humbucker in the bridge. He also added a Bigsby B5 with a vibramate adapter plate, but that was removed before touring for "BUMMMER" would begin.

You can see the effect pedal during a concert on the Reeperbahn in Hamburg.

Luke is known prominently for using a 2012 Gibson Les Paul Traditional, finished in an Iced Tea Sunburst. The stock set of Gibson '57 Classic Humbuckers is still in the guitar. In early 2016, Luke mounted a Bigsby B7 on the guitar with a vibramate mounting plate, but the Bigsby was removed by mid 2018, presumably from tuning stability issues.
