Paul Masvidal

Q: You have been playing Steinberger's for quite a while. You have some older models along with the new ZT3. Can you give us a little information about your Steinberger's and what you like about them?

GR4R - I customized this one with an internal Roland synth pickup and a Bareknuckle Miracle Man in the bridge and Trilogy Suite single coils. It's my 'Stein-Mod' guitar that's kinda of a constant work in progress. The guitar is really 'broken in' now and feels great. I have 11's on this one which makes for a solid rhythm instrument for Cynic's complex riffs.

"Selling my handsome red ZT3! I ?? this guitar but already have another in my collection. DM me if interested!"

"I have a new signature guitar from Varberg called the Masvidalien. It’s just coming out now. I used that on the whole record. Then there’s another Varberg, the Warbird model, which I also used. But it’s a different guitar setup for this album, which was big for me because I was a Steinberger guy for many years. Now I’m totally in a different place with that, and that definitely affected things."

GM4T - Black w/ white binding, TransTrem and EMG's. For me this is the classic Steinberger and it just feels like the equivalent to a Steinway Concert Grand in the piano world. A precious guitar that sounds and feels like a million bucks.

Masvidal played this guitar through his teenage years. This is the 1980 Gibson V2 and Masvidal still owns the guitar!

In the video you can see the review of the guitar by Paul himself

"Loving this 80's Casio midi guitar!"
