MJ Lenderman & the Wind

Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/mj-lendermanSubscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeThe fast-rising indie-rock outfit shows how they bring their varied 4-piece string section to life on their recent tour.Last year’s Manning Fireworks was a breakout moment for Asheville, North Carolina’s MJ Lenderman, which is both the name of the band and the actual name of singer and guitarist Jake Lenderman, who also plays in the band Wednesday. The record topped plenty of year-end lists and drew favorable comparisons to the likes of Neil Young, Dinosaur Jr., and other stars of the pre- and post-’90s indie-rock boom.On tour behind the record, the band stopped in at Birmingham, Alabama, joint Saturn on February 1. PG’s Chris Kies met up with Lenderman, guitarist Jon Samuels, pedal-steel player Xandy Chelmis, and bassist Landon George before the show to get the dirt on their dirt.Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/mj-lendermanSubscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTubeWin Guitar Gear: https://bit.ly/GiveawaysPGDon't Miss a Rundown: http://bit.ly/RIgRundownENLMerch & Magazines: https://shop.premierguitar.comPG's Facebook: https://facebook.com/premierguitarPG's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/premierguitar/PG's Twitter: https://twitter.com/premierguitarPG's Threads: https://threads.net/@premierguitarPG's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@premierguitar0:00 - XPND Pedalboard0:15 - MJ Lenderman & the Wind “Joker Lips”1:12 - Chris Kies Intro1:36 - MJ Lenderman’s 1979 Gibson The “SG”3:10 - MJ Lenderman’s Tunings & Capo Usage4:26 - MJ Lenderman on Working with Producer Alex Farrar 5:35 - MJ Lenderman on Recording Manning Fireworks6:50 - MJ Lenderman’s 1979 Gibson The “SG” Tone7:23 - MJ Lenderman’s Squier J Mascis Signature Jazzmaster8:05 - MJ Lenderman’s “You’re Every Girl to Me” Tuning9:17 - MJ Lenderman Performing with Dinosaur Jr10:34 - MJ Lenderman’s Fender American Vintage II 1977 Telecaster Deluxe12:18 - MJ Lenderman’s 2008 Fender Jazzmaster13:47 - MJ Lenderman’s Hiwatt Custom 5016:30 - MJ Lenderman’s Pedalboard19:57 - MJ Lenderman on Playing Songs Live21:26 - MJ Lenderman on Michael Jordan’s “Hangover Game”22:33 - MJ Lenderman on Manning Fireworks Popularity & Solo Success23:41 - Jon Samuels’ Fender Player Telecaster26:59 - Jon Samuels’ Fender Hot Rod DeVille27:33 - Jon Samuels’ Pedalboard33:45 - John Bohlinger & XPND Pedalboard34:34 - Xandy Chelmis’ 10-string ZB Custom Pedal-Steel Guitar38:36 - Xandy Chelmis’ Pedal-Steel Tuning & Slide Bar41:44 - Xandy Chelmis’ Fender ’65 Twin Custom 1542:40 - Xandy Chelmis’ Goodrich H-12044:43 - Xandy Chelmis’ Guyatone SD2 Sustainer46:39 - Landon George’s 2006 Fender Mike Dirnt Precision Bass49:46 - Landon George’s Flatwound Bass Strings50:35 - Landon George’s Sunn Beta Bass Amp & Ampeg SVT 8x1052:19 - Landon George’s Pedalboard57:10 - D’Addario Strings[Brought to you by D’Addario: https://ddar.io/wykyk-rr & D'Addario XPND: https://ddari.io/xpnd.rr]© Copyright Gearhead Communications LLC, 2025#guitar #rigrundown #guitarist #guitarplayer #guitargear #mjlenderman #bass #bassplayer
