Zach Person's Guitars
According to Chris Kies in the "Zach Person Rig Rundown" on Premier Guitar, guitarist Zach Person uses the Gibson Custom Shop Jimi Hendrix 1967 SG Custom Reissue. Person has removed the Maestro tremolo system and installed a tailpiece for improved tuning stability during performances. Additionally, he has modified the neck humbucker with a "Jimmy Page mod," which involves removing the pole pieces to achieve tones closer to those of a single-coil, and the guitar remains in standard tuning.
Zach Person is confirmed to use a 1967 Gibson SG Special, as detailed in a feature by Chris Kies on Premier Guitar's "Rig Rundown." According to the source, Person has revitalized this guitar with several modifications, including new OX4 P-90 pickups and a refinish, while maintaining its original wood, neck shape, and frets. He describes the neck shape as "narrow but chunky" in his hands, and notes that the guitar's Maestro tremolo system has been removed.
Zach Person uses a Gibson LG-2 acoustic guitar, which has a unique backstory. During a Thanksgiving at his in-laws' home in Dallas, Person expressed his desire for a Gibson LG-2. His father-in-law recalled that his mother might have one stored away. After retrieving it from a shed in the rain, they found a worn-out LG-1. Austin-based technician Elaine Filion restored it by installing an X-bracing system, effectively converting it into an LG-2-style guitar. It is equipped with an L.R. Baggs pickup and bears the nameplate "Jeannie" in honor of his wife’s grandmother, the original owner. This instrument was featured during Person's appearance on the "Rig Rundown" by Premier Guitar, as reported by Chris Kies.
