Myles Kennedy

Myles Kennedy says the PRS SE Angelus is one of his favorite acoustic guitars in this interview.

Myles Kennedy mentions his PRS McCarty Electric Guitar as a guitar he always goes to at home, here In this interview.

"It’s funny. I have a few older guitars, a ’67 Gibson SG and a ’67 335, which I love dearly. There’s this PRS McCarty they sent me about seven years ago, and there’s something about that guitar that I always tend to go to when I’m at home. It just feels good in my hands. It’s just very comfortable. It sounds good." - Myles Kennedy.

At :42 he says "I'm going to pull out my favorite one, which is actually my go to now." He also goes on to say it's loaded with Seymour Duncan Custom custom's to differentiate between his and Marks tone. He says, at 1:20, that he uses a tone pro bridge on it since they "resonate real well."

Check out e.g. 38:40. On the actual Europe tour of Slash feat. Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators, Myles is using a mahogany-red PRS Starla 2008 with Bigsby when backing up Slash on his Guild Doubleneck.

Spotted at Rock am Ring 2015, Germany, Pinkpop 2015, The Netherlands, and witnessed at Geneve 2015, Switzerland

He uses various Taylor acoustic guitars

It is shown on the official Taylor website and been used in an endorsment(of Taylor guitars) show by Myles and Mark back in 2007

Myles started to use the PRS McCarty 594 core model in recording sessions of Alter Bridge's 5th studio album "The Last Hero"

At 4:31 you can see the PRS Mira Myles is using

This was in the Slash ft. Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators show in 2013

Myles uses the PRS S2 Vela for most live performances of "This Side of Fate" with Alter Bridge in 2017. Most notably used during the performance in the "Live at the Royal Albert Hall" DVD. The video linked is from the performance in Luxembourg on June 26, 2017. The guitar can be clearly seen for almost the entirety of the video.

The IG URL linked is a picture of Myles playing a sunburst telecaster at a live show in the Manchester Arena. In the comments, Myles replies to @mattsguitarshop and says "yes sir. A Fender Highway One I found on eBay that I ended up writing a lot of the new record with." This was in December 2019, so he was referring to the 'Walk the Sky' album. He also uses a reliced (or legitimately old?) black tele of unverified manufacture during that tour, as seen on various videos, including https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugPiJmbXVb8 - he plays it for the majority of the show, but for timestamp purposes: 1:31:05.

London Astoria June 6th 2006 Myles plays it at 16:00 on Buried Alive (early working version). Probably he used it on the whole europe tour.

Myles Kennedy says the Diezel Herbert 180W Tube Guitar Head is the amp he uses with Alter Bridge.

"With Slash I’m using the Mesa Mark IV and with Alter Bridge I’m using the Diezel Herbert. I was using the Diezel in conjunction with the Mesa Mark IV in Alter Bridge and basically what was happening is the front of house guy was like, 'I’m not running a lot of the Mesa, because it’s so similar sonically to Mark’s sound.'" - Source.

Kennedy runs two Diezel Herbert MK1 heads, which he controls with a Diezel Columbus foot controller. The amps run into two Diezel 4x12 cabs loaded with green Tone Tubby Hempcone 40/40 Ceramic speakers.

"I'm a huge fan of Fulltone pedals. A friend of mine turned my on to the Clyde back in 1997. I've used this pedal religiously since the day I bought it. It sounds amazing. It’s built like a tank. And it’s held up without any problems for 16 years."

"This is my main pedal for modulation effects. It replicates an arsenal of chorus, phaser, and tremolo effects very nicely. I've used the tri-chorus setting on a number of tracks I've recorded with the Mayfield Four and Alter Bridge."

"This is the effect I used on the intro lead to “Before Tomorrow Comes.” It's an extremely versatile distortion/fuzz with an octave-up switch. It’s a great effect to kick on when you want to push your lead tone into extreme territory."

"This is the pedal I used for my leads with Alter Bridge on AB III and Fortress. The perfect balance of sustain and clarity without changing the tone of the amp."

"I used this pedal to replicate the effect I used on my “Blackbird” solo. If you dig the Robin Trower or Jimi Hendrix Uni-Vibe sound, I can't recommend this pedal enough."

At the beginning of this video, a Line 6 DL4 can be seen on Myles Kennedy's pedalboard, coming after his Fulltone Wah in the signal chain.

The Radial Switchbone is a fantastic addition to my rig. It allows me to run my two favorite amps at the same time without compromising my tone. The mid boost is the coolest feature. I turn it on when I need a lead to sing and sustain without thinning out my sound. If only I had this pedal 20 years earlier!

On his pedalboard, Kennedy runs a Fulltone Ultimate Octave, MXR GT-OD, Dunlop MC404 CAE Wah, Line 6 MM4 Modulation Modeler, Fulltone Deja ’Vibe, and a Boss TU-2 Chromatic Tuner.

Seen on his pedalboard at 25:58, although Myles didn't talk about the pedal.
