TIM PIERCE, such an amazing, polished, intricate player! Yet to watch the ease to which he bonds with any guitar he is playing, is so relaxed. Like he’s sitting on a couch having a cup of coffee. He looks so laid back, and really enjoying his craft. He makes this look so easy, but we all know how painstakingly hard it truly is to accomplish. He has his own tone, but can mimic and match the best guitar gods out there, effortlessly! Love to see a segment of TIM, and JOHN, jamming together! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🎸⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Imagine him sucking on you for coke money with that very same enthusiasm! He used to do that for me back in the day out in the OC before things blew up
I can’t put a number on how many times I’ve heard Tim talk about his gear, approach, set up,reasoning, etc. It will absolutely never get old. His skill and touch are one thing but his joy and devotion to music are what brings me back. Such a legend.
At last!! Tim is one of those legends who so few people know of by name - yet many many have heard play as a sessionman on thousands of songs. Can't wait to watch this. His enthusiasm, humility - & that smile of his - always warms my heart.
Tim and John. Tone and gear talk hosts match made in heaven. Fantastic video and two of the nicest, coolest dudes in all the guitar world! I could listen to them talk gear and tones for hours. God bless and rock on 🎸😎
Imoho John uses his excellent interviewing skills to guide rig rundowns and asks questions to help artists provide their pertinent gear info. He’s great at asking the right stuff, then pretty much staying out of the way while they answer. With Tim most of this isn’t necessary. Tim’s a master communicator who’s been refining things through hundreds of videos over the years….and he’s demoed his guitars and cockpit many times on his own and other channels .This seems like it was an easy one for John, he could just let Tim go and enjoy the music and the info. Two pros doing their thing.
Tim is right on the money on everything: 1) Guitars are tools of the trade: they're better with modern improvements but without leaving the aesthetics aside (vintage vibe or whatever works for you) 2) Amps, speakers and pedals complementing each other 3) Setting the environment up so one can focus on creativity and not connecting/disconnecting, setting up, etc. thanks for this rig rundown, Tim is a player but also a guitar gear expert, which makes it more interesting.
Tim has the best tone I’ve ever heard… It’s always different but always amazing. Doesn’t matter what guitar or amp/modulator he’s playing through… Which makes me think it’s just how he plays
Tim sharing his secrets. He is like a mad scientist describing all his gear from the cockpit. I think I speak for everyone thanks Tim for enriching our lives, you are an inspiration.
What a home studio! That might be the most impressive guitar cave I have ever seen. Tim has spent years learning all of these things and is now able to do ANYTHING at the press of some buttons. Just wow. Great rig rundown!!
Tim the consumate professional. Just listening to the care and attention he has given to designing his cockpit so as to get the best out of the artist he is working with - and giving off his best. A lesson that goes way beyond being a musician.
Tim has alot of good friends with really famous people. Wonder what its like to be really good friends with really famous people. Also the tone on his Jaguar is just insane. The reverb is great. Thanks for showing it Tim! Thanks for the content Premier Guitar. Very Cool Stuff
What an awesome Rig Rundown. I love the ones with great session players, they're so generous with their insight and process. John is so good at just letting an artist talk as well
So thankful for both of you. Since picking back the guitar up after a very long absence, I can say with certainty how much I’ve appreciated sitting at your feet here on RUclips and immersing myself in Tone Town and tutorials and the passion both of you have for sharing!
Just, TRULY, The Best of the Best. A constant inspiration & in my few interactions with him, so very personable and humble with it. Thank you Mr Tim / Here’s hoping we can see you over UK side 🇬🇧 one day?! Cheers - Sam
Great stuff - obviously love Tim's playing but love his ethos just as much. So refreshing hearing such an expert talk about "player grade" and new guitars with such enthusiasm. Much a pleasant change from all the vintage megabucks stuff.
We chase the holy grail of tone and we tend to get lost in the minutia. That said, it's wonderful to see how Tim has his studio configured so he can keep the inspiration and work flowing.
What a consumate professional with just an insanely huge cockpit of musical fun! Tim is Grade-A class and perfection. I can only imagine what Tim's electric bill is on a monthly basis! 😂😮
John and Tim together = happy day. Really great interview John. So cool you got to be in the gear cockpit. Amazing. Been a massive fan of Tim's since the Rick Springfield touring days. Um like almost 40 years ago. Wow!

Can't think of anyone more deserving of a rig rundown than this man. Such a virtuoso and fantastic teacher.
Well Said Sir
What about a little baby with genitals

The sheer joy in which Tim plays with is inspiring
Truly.
Imagine him sucking on you for coke money with that very same enthusiasm! He used to do that for me back in the day out in the OC before things blew up
seems to know the score...
Nicest guitarist in the world. Tone monster!
Some say tone is in the hands - I think Tim’s is in his smile.
I can’t put a number on how many times I’ve heard Tim talk about his gear, approach, set up,reasoning, etc. It will absolutely never get old. His skill and touch are one thing but his joy and devotion to music are what brings me back. Such a legend.

Tim has got to be one of the best players on Earth right now....every note he plays just BELONGS there...
Tim and John. Tone and gear talk hosts match made in heaven. Fantastic video and two of the nicest, coolest dudes in all the guitar world! I could listen to them talk gear and tones for hours. God bless and rock on 🎸😎
A thousand times: Tim and John!!
I love how Tim is just having fun while doing this the whole time. This was awesome John!
Tim is a inspirational gift to all dedicated musicians to follow and learn
Tim’s the man! What a sweet guy. His command center cockpit is unreal. Great episode
Tim has probably played on more songs than you can count. Amazing player and seems like a super chilled dude! Cheers for sharing.
Love Tim Pierce! What an articulate and informed guy. Plus his guitar face is one of the best .. like pure joy!
I've never seen JB so quiet, he looks completely mesmerised by Tim's rig and masterful playing. Love it ❤

Two pros doing their thing.
The best tone, the nicest guy and the coolest gear! Tim’s the man!
Seriously the most powerful home studio I've ever seen. Tim is such an inspirational player. Great episode guys!
It's not a home studio, it's a studio in a home
You can call it tremolo, vibrato, whatever you want Tim, you are the boss! Master musician. 🙌
Tim is right on the money on everything:
1) Guitars are tools of the trade: they're better with modern improvements but without leaving the aesthetics aside (vintage vibe or whatever works for you)
2) Amps, speakers and pedals complementing each other
3) Setting the environment up so one can focus on creativity and not connecting/disconnecting, setting up, etc.
thanks for this rig rundown, Tim is a player but also a guitar gear expert, which makes it more interesting.
Best Rig Rundown - EVER!
Tim is the man. Such a happy, cool guy.
Tim always looks like he absolutely enjoys what he does 😃🤘👍
The guitars and amps are great. But that studio setup........
Tim has the best tone I’ve ever heard… It’s always different but always amazing. Doesn’t matter what guitar or amp/modulator he’s playing through… Which makes me think it’s just how he plays
Tim is one totally melodic guitar man! That Les Paul is a beaut!
Tim's Flat Wound 62 Jag was THE SOUND! I can't get over that delicious, syrupy soaked reverb tone. Heaven!
Tim Pierce is a breath of fresh air. You gotta' love this guy ...! Great player ...He's just so genuine.
Tim definitely gets the award for most amazing home guitar setup and rig!!!! And definitely gonna need those Tim Pierce signature pickups!!!
How is this only NOW happening?!! Tim is incredible!
So good! I love Bolinger's face looking over Tim's shoulder in the second half. So great to see his reactions as a real fan.
Timmy!! Such a treat
Thank you so much for doing that! Tim's been featured on so many records, he deserves the attention! This was an amazing learning experience!
He's such an inspiring guy. If you watch him play, it is always a motivation to go further on your instrument. No matter, what your level is ...
He used to suck on me with such *wild* inspiration- astounding care to detail!!
Tim, you have the most Elaborate, Setup of things that i ever saw in my life, Cousin Figel
Tim and John! YES! Two of my favorite RUclips people. God bless y'all.
I love Tim. He gives hope to all of us mortals who have regular sized hands.
The hands on some of these pro guitarists! 😒
It's nice to see someone with so much talent and so little ego. Tim is amazing.
Tim sharing his secrets. He is like a mad scientist describing all his gear from the cockpit. I think I speak for everyone thanks Tim for enriching our lives, you are an inspiration.
Tim just has a beautiful touch! Period.
Tim has one of the most interesting channels on RUclips. Never miss anything he posts
GOAT!! Tim has to be the sweetest guy. A true inspiration ❤
Time is such a pro’s pro, and anything he says is pretty much golden to me. Love it!
Love how Tim just drops in 'I met Tom thru Joe Bonamassa'. There's another story - but Tim has such humility, it's never a name drop with him.
What a home studio! That might be the most impressive guitar cave I have ever seen. Tim has spent years learning all of these things and is now able to do ANYTHING at the press of some buttons. Just wow. Great rig rundown!!
Tim the consumate professional. Just listening to the care and attention he has given to designing his cockpit so as to get the best out of the artist he is working with - and giving off his best. A lesson that goes way beyond being a musician.
It's literally the tastiest licks ever!❤
OMG! That is unreal AWESOME! I’ve been a fan but oh my. Tim, that isn’t a Ferrari, it’s an F16, on full afterburner! Thank you from Austin!
F16 lol
That is the sweetest, most gorgeous sounding 335 - I need one.
It's a pleasure to watch, always smiling and enjoying the sound, congratulations to both of you, good work ❤
Tim has alot of good friends with really famous people. Wonder what its like to be really good friends with really famous people. Also the tone on his Jaguar is just insane. The reverb is great. Thanks for showing it Tim! Thanks for the content Premier Guitar. Very Cool Stuff
What an awesome Rig Rundown. I love the ones with great session players, they're so generous with their insight and process. John is so good at just letting an artist talk as well
Tim used to do a great Dick Suckdown on my penis back in the day! Really great stuff
Tim and John are both great guitarists and good people.
One of the most impressive rigs ever.
Tim doesn’t have a rig. He has a mission control center.
🤣 Hell yeah!
A couple of my favorite youtube guitar guys. Thanks to you both.
possibly my favorite rig rundown
What a great episode!
I think we're due for an updated rundown on Tom Bukovac
Tim is a genius and a musical wizard!
So thankful for both of you. Since picking back the guitar up after a very long absence, I can say with certainty how much I’ve appreciated sitting at your feet here on RUclips and immersing myself in Tone Town and tutorials and the passion both of you have for sharing!
What a stunning rig and setup. Tim Pierce is the man !
What a lovely playing!! So awesome!
Tim Pierce is a treasure!
Thanks John! I felt like my astonishment matched yours, as you followed Tim through his maze!
COMMAND CENTER! Tim seems like such an awesome guy. I love all his videos. I hope he keeps working for another 20+ years.
Love Tim Pierce. Always an interesting guy to listen too and what a player!!
Tim is the genius mad scientist of pedals and amps and knows how to use every single one of them. Amazing.
Two of my fav guitar nerds in the same video….heaven
I love the rundown of the Command Center! So cool.
Tim is a Kid in a candy store! in his Studio. I could live there forever! Thanks for sharing ☮️🎸🎶
I love listening to Tim, his knowledge is incredible and his tone and the way he plays is amazing
love how he came out with a video talking about how much he loves the halo delay and there it is really on his board
That outro tone, da fugg man... brilliant!
Just, TRULY, The Best of the Best.
A constant inspiration & in my few interactions with him, so very personable and humble with it. Thank you Mr Tim / Here’s hoping we can see you over UK side 🇬🇧 one day?! Cheers - Sam
Yes to a trip across here! Wouldn't that be just great
thank you again for this. What a lovely dude is Tim.
But with all these amazing diverse combinations...
...it still sounds JUST like Tim
Gracious and generous in sharing his information. Thanks John and Tim!
Maybe best episode ever.
Best one yet!
The coolest rig of them all!
So great to see this come up in the recommended videos--two great guys in one video
Tim is the best. Super nice, too. He did some auxiliary tracking on our first record, when I was a green newbie and couldn't nail studio parts.
Agreed that this is a golden age for 🎸 electronics, I still like the old stuff, y'all keep on rocking!!
I can't get enough of Tim Pierce!
Tim creates the most tasteful licks that serves as the salt to a song. 🤘🏼✌🏼
Great stuff - obviously love Tim's playing but love his ethos just as much. So refreshing hearing such an expert talk about "player grade" and new guitars with such enthusiasm. Much a pleasant change from all the vintage megabucks stuff.
Wow. Best Rig Rundown EVER! This is INSANE! 👌
Tim’s happiness is pure AF
Fantastic rundown here, Tim is so cool, incredible knowledge and experience in tone, and yes, he can play quite well
Two gentlemen that I thoroughly love and two guys that I cannot envision ever losing their temper. Surely it happens, but far and few between.
Thank you! This is awesome.
Two of my favorite RUclips people together. Awesome 😎
my favorite parts @ 28:31 - 29:56 is what I live for in these reviews- thank you Tim for sampling those amp sounds. cheers lefty
We chase the holy grail of tone and we tend to get lost in the minutia. That said, it's wonderful to see how Tim has his studio configured so he can keep the inspiration and work flowing.
I love Premier Guitar AND Tim Pierce! Great Rig Rundown.
Love Tim. Love John. Thanks for another great video.
Thanks for this incredible video Tim and John. Sure appreciate everything you guys do!
What a consumate professional with just an insanely huge cockpit of musical fun! Tim is Grade-A class and perfection.
I can only imagine what Tim's electric bill is on a monthly basis! 😂😮
Tim is just amazing
I have a set of Tom Holmes coil-tapped pickups on my '69 Les Paul. They are indeed wonderful.
John and Tim together = happy day. Really great interview John. So cool you got to be in the gear cockpit. Amazing. Been a massive fan of Tim's since the Rick Springfield touring days. Um like almost 40 years ago. Wow!
