Ryan Jarman

Ryan Jarman's "Mu-uar" combined Ryan's favorites offset guitars model that based from Fender Mustang and Fender Jaguar body shape, looks like an opposite model from Kurt Cobain's signature guitar, Fender Jag Stang.

His signature guitar included Duncan Designed single-coil Jaguar® neck pickup and an output humbucking bridge pickup, blended with master volume and tone controls along with phase and on/off switches for each pickup, and a toggle killswitch. A vintage-style Jazzmaster bridge, large ‘60s-style headstock and metal control plate offer vintage looks and practical usage.

Holy guitar!

Ryan Jarman has used the Fender Super-Sonic on the Cribs 6th album as he was pictured using it while in brother Gary Jarman's studio in Portland. Ryan has also appeared in a interview with fender in which he is holding his Super-Sonic

In this Fender interview with the Cribs, brothers Ryan and Gary Jarman talk about some of the Fender guitars the use and love:

Ryan: “I use a pawnshop Mustang, exactly like this actually, Lake Placid Blue, I have the Pawn Shop Mustang and the Venus are the two guitars that I use mainly. When The Cribs first started I use to use vintage Mustangs, 70s ones. Because of the amount of touring we do…”

Gary: “We’re pretty hard on our guitars, so we’ve stopped taking vintage stuff out. So it was really cool, Ryan got the Pawn Shop Mustang, it became like a workhorse guitar…”

Ryan: “If there’s one thing I can say about this guitar is that it’s super reliable, really hard wiring.”

In this photo, Ryan Jarman can be seen playing live with his Gibson ES-335 electric guitar. In an interview with Gibson, when asked if he used any Gibsons on The Cribs' album Ignore The Ignorant, Ryan answers:

"Yeah I used my ES-335s a lot on the new record. The reason why I started playing them in the first place was Alex [Kapranos] from Franz Ferdinand had one and I used it in the studio and just loved the sound of it. I know it may look a bit weird in our band because it’s not the kind of guitar you’d expect us to play, but the thing that I really like about the semi-acoustic is that, since I like to have a lot of gain on my amp, the guitar is always on the verge of feeding back. I think it adds a lot of tension to the sound, which is something that I love."

At 0:22 in this video, it can be seen that Ryan Jarman is using a Fender Squier Venus.

Ryan has mostly being seen with this guitar during his side project exclamation pony

Ryan Jarman used his fender Jaguar on the Cribs 5th album "In the Belly of the Brazen Bull" he switched the pickups and changed them to DiMarzio pickups for a harder-hitting loud sound. He very rarely used it in live shows.

Ryan has been pictured using his Kurt Cobain Mustang on rare occasions, particularly from 2012-2013

Up to around 2007 he played a 78 Fender Mustang, heres a performance at the cribsmas concert 2007 where he played it for the first 2 nights

Ryan Jarman use the Cobain's signature Jag at Abbey Road Studios, London, October 2011

In this photo of Ryan Jarman performing live, his amp head can be seen in the background. Based on the writing in the upper right corner of the head, he is using an Orange Rockerverb 100 on top of a large Orange speaker cab. This photo is from The Cribs at O Beco São Paulo, and was taken November 2012 by Donetts Diniz.

In this video, Ryan Jarman talks about how he uses the Orange AD30 combo:

"I use the AD30, which is head and cab. But I hide the head behind the cab. And then I put on the AD30 combo on the top, and just run them both together. I'm not entirely sure why I started doing that..."

He used an AD30 head with a 4x12 cab combined with the AD30 combo

At 44:28 into this video of The Cribs live at Reading Festival 2015, Ryan Jarman's Green Electricamp can be seen, going through the Orange 4x12 cab.

At 3:18 you can see a vox AC30 handwired.

I think he used like once or twice in the history of his band but dont quote me on that.

In this video of Ryan Jarman of The Cribs talking about Orange Amps, he says his first Orange amp was a Crush 30 combo. Around the 1:00 minute mark in the video he says:

"The first time I actually got an Orange was probably in 2001, and it's when the Orange Crush came out. I got an Orange Crush for my birthday ... I was really excited that it was an Orange amp however I could actually afford. It was a way of getting an Orange but on a modest budget. I still really love that amp. I think it was the Crush 30. It became our main recording amp. All our early demos we recorded with the Crush. And even now whenever we go to the studio we always take the Orange Crush with us and split the signal between my Orange rig and the Crush, just because I still think it sounds really good on records. I still really love that amp actually."

At their headline show in Coventry Ryan uses a Boss TU-3 in his pedal board, you can see the button thing but I saw it when I went.

At 5:11 me emmtions he used an Orange Getaway driver in the studio for a new song.

He uses this strap paired with Fender strap locks.

There is also an advert in 424 page 49 which says he uses the strings
