From their gritty garage roots in 1986, to multiple major deals, world tours, breaks-ups and reunions, The Afghan Whigs-including longtime bassist John Curley (above right)-hung with Premier Guitar prior to their jet-fueled gig in Nashville.
Curley’s main live bass is a 1979 Rickenbacker 4001. He has played Ricks off and on since the Whigs began touring in the late 1980s. The bright, aggressive tone cuts through the heavy guitars while still providing plenty of tight low end. Curley’s backup on tour is a 1978 Fender Jazz, which is his first choice in the studio.
Dulli, a loyal Gibson man, rotates between two Gibsons-this 2005 Gibson ES-335.

Stoked that John actually demoed some of his pedals instead of just talking about them.
I gave Dave Rosser a pedal that I have built when they was in Stockholm a couple of years ago. He used it in studio mostly. A real nice person, we sort of became friends right away. Too sad he passed away so early. Fun to see Afghan Whigs in the Rig Rundown! Thanks
i guess I'm quite randomly asking but does anybody know of a good website to stream new series online?
@Ronnie Castiel I would suggest flixzone. You can find it on google :)
@Ronnie Castiel I use Flixzone. Just google for it :)

One of the all time best "alt" rock bands of the 1990's! These guys REALLY added soul to the loud guitar landscape of 90's indie rock and it worked! REALLY WELL! So Stoked for this Rundown! The Whigs have always had GNARLY album cover art...but to add it to the cabs...So rad! \m/
Premier Guitar..I cannot tell you how thankful I am for you putting this Rig Rundown together..!!!
Rock on...!
Thanks for watching!
"We don't have a ton of time and you guys have a ton of gear…" results in awesome one hour rundown with some awesome gear and cool down to earth artists! Rock on!
my favorite rig rundown. love the whigs!
i'm just happy there's been two Rick basses in the recent rig rundowns
lol
Hometown boys! I have recorded at the bass players now defunct studio countless times! John Curly super nice guy
“1965” is my jam too, brother! The Afghan Whigs watermark, in my opinion.🎸🇺🇸
Afghan Whigs... wow! Well done PG!!
Love that Twilight Singers album...great interview!
This is awesome. Much respect how humble, sincere and down to earth these guys are. Also a great job by the interviewer.
That white Rick looks freaking gorgeous, man, you don’t see that finish all that often
Only Greg Dulli would have a pedal with Ass, Gas and Grass knob settings...
Great rundown! Still so stoked that Jon has my White Fuzz on his board - priceless!
Killer sounding fuzz!
Sounds so good!!! \m/
You make that? Right on. One of my favorite fuzzes.
WOW! what a great set of tones by the first guitarist jon! that's like a desert island pedalboard for me.
That Les Paul - inches behind Perry's back. This was some edge of seat suspense waiting for it to fall over.
This was awesome. Didn't know this group before and the interviewer did an awesome job. Knows his stuff and asked great questions.
Love this band!
Interesting pedal arrangement and a ton of tones, killer.
I do enjoy those Rig Rundowns, but as a drummer it was nice to see Patrick Keeler's drum set! So classy!
Whig Rundown
Great Rig Rundown Perry!
Great fookin band!! Thanks guys.
Very good host n guest, thanks for doing it
really love those double cut Yamahas guitars. especially the black vintage super rare to find
of course love Les paul and Rickenbaker bass
Never cited as virtuosic but the Whigs have such sonically mastered guitar parts. It was funny watching them try to express enthusiasm going over Dulli’s pedalboard....some tasks are too much to ask....
This is amazing - thanks!
I got all the best gear.... vintage..custom...rare.. awesome stuff...but of course you can't take that all to the gig so l got an ALDI guitar ( six string electric) and just plug direct into a solid-state Taiwanese karioke station. NOW I sound just like everyone else including EVH , Eric and Pagey....
.. those guys will never tell you that.
It's cool when it's the actual musicians themselves who show their rigs.
Great Review, I really appreciate Premier Guitar!!!!!!
i have never seen a revstar in that color it's like the color red you would find on a SG or 335 AND IT IS SO COOL!!!!! if yamaha don't do it in this color they need to start RIGHT NOW!
Awesome 👌🏻 👏🏻 👍🏻 😍
i thought this was EHX demo for a moment
TheZooropaBaby not the same dude?
I was sure he was the same dude
it is same dude :)
Dude, love Twilight Singers, love Powder Burns!!
that yamaha is one of the coolest looking guitars
Actually guitar gear in Norway costs pretty much the same as i the US these days. Thanks to the internet, importers can't charge huge mark-ups anymore :-)
@2:30 honestly the best part of locking tuners isn't stability (that has just as much to do with how well the nut is carved) but locking tuners make string changes a breeze. like seconds instead of minutes
mojotone!!!!
"yeah it's pretty much stock, except for everything"
Moogerfooger murf for synth bass too
Good interviews
Boss bass octave for synth sounds
Love me some Twilight
That little riff from 9:50 to 9:59, what song is that from?
Can Rova from the album Do To The Beast.
ZSab0 Thx man. I didn’t know this band b4 this rig run down and that little riff gave me a chill. Pretty sweet
Perry is really good at interrupting!
Rickenbacker transforms into a Jazz bass at 18:11
This guy is the best interviewer.
everything is stock... I switched out the pickups, tuners and wiring...lol cool looking lp
Whig Rundown.
You guys gotta do a Foo rig rundown
We've tried several times, but they're not interested. Thanks for the suggestion!
Snobs primadonna and "guitaristically" not interesting enough though...
I think it would be kind of interesting. Chris Shiflett looks like he has a pretty cool board.
wow this is thought about way to much, not me Afghan WHigs
22:33 - can someone explain this device to me? You press the button and it changes the tuning to D...and it's actually in tune?
Viva La Rosser!
So ahh, Greg Dulli doesn't play guitar anymore?
Oh yeah, there's more video
Less EHX than I expected...
please rig rundown of ghost
do turnstile!!!!!
Why would someone thuimbs down this???? Would have been nice to see Greg, but oh well....
because the whole thing was focused on marketing
Doesn’t like locking tuners? Lol ok
the violin and cello don't get any love why ??? awesome rig rundown
