Ryan Peake

In this live performance of "Animals", Ryan is seen playing a Gibson Explorer starting at :28s. Jason Shadrick writes in this article from Premier Guitar "Ryan Peake’s guitar boat is stocked with several Gibson Explorers and Flying Vs. Along with his tech, Kris Dawson, Peake gives each one a custom finish that typically involves blowtorches, chisels, and other tools of destruction. All his guitars sport EMG pickups (EMG 81 in the bridge and EMG 85 in the neck) and are strung with various gauges of Ernie Ball strings".

"Why a Gibson Flying V ? Ryan wanted a new style for "The Long Road" album. "The Flying V is The Rock guitar, it definitely has an aura!". He started playing them about a year ago. He has been playing Gibsons (and vintages) for years though."

He is seen using this guitar in a live cover of ZZ Top's "Sharp Dressed Man".

"How many do you own ? Currently 5, 4 Limited 98 natural models. 1 is a Lucite replica made for me by Dillion (Les Paul kind of weight). Vintage guitars stay at home, these are "road" instruments."

For both guitarists’ clean sounds they rely on a Fender Super 60 rack from the mid ’80s. Described as very Twin-like, the Super 60 sports 6L6 and 12AX7 tubes.

Both Chad’s (L) and Ryan’s (R) rack setups are almost identical. For Chad, his signal goes through the Shure wireless receivers into a Radial JX44 and then splits out to the Fender Super 60 for his clean tone and a pair of Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifers for his overdrive sound. Ryan keeps the same basic signal flow but inserts a Fractal Audio Axe-Fx II and a Line 6 Echo Pro.

Ryan Peake’s pedal drawer includes an MXR Dyna Comp, MXR Micro Chorus, VFE Dark Horse, VFE Fiery Red Horse, MXR 12-band EQ, and MXR Auto Q.

Shure endorsed Nickelback's Ryan Peake uses Shure's SM57, according to Shure's artist page.
