In November at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, PG’s Rig Rundown team got the inside guided tour of the gear that’s melted a million faces. Richard Fortus and Slash’s and Duff’s longtime techs, Adam Day and Mike “Mcbob” Mayhue, tell all.
In 1987, Gibson enjoyed an enormous jump in sales when Guns N’ Roses released Appetite for Destruction. To show their appreciation, Gibson gave Slash this ’87 Les Paul Standard, the first of many endorsement guitars. This battered ’87 LP has been broken, burned, and abused since the first tour and remains one of Slash’s favorites.
Duff McKagan started out with a Japanese Fender Jazz special he bought with his record advance money. That bass, now stored safely at home, served as the model for the Fender Custom Shop Duff McKagan bass models. Duff tours with several of his Fender signature basses; the primary is a mid-2000s model
Richard Fortus tours with a large arsenal of guitars, too many to cover here, but let’s start with a few of his Gretsch guitars, including a Gretsch White Falcon and Black Falcon, both Players Edition models upgraded with Arcane pickups.

When Slash done his UK tour a few years ago, he had his usual Marshall cabs on stage, but, he had another 4x12 isolated off-stage which was rented out by John Henry's Ltd. which was on loan from Ashdown Engineering. On one tour, it was a UK made Ashdown (Hayden) Celestion V30 loaded 4x12, a little while later, Ashdown took it back and put it up for sale on Reverb as B-stock. I went and bought it. It's use by Slash was officially confirmed by Ashdown and John Henry's Ltd. Great buy. :)

Last time they did the Rig Rundown of GnR, all 3 guitarists (DJ, Bumblefoot, and Richard) did the rundown themselves. All 3 of them are gearheads, to a great extent. On the contrary, Slash and Duff are more focused towards simply playing their instruments and simply rocking the show. I'd have respect for both kinds of players, honestly.

Dizzy knows when to turn up and when he needs to be subtle, same with richard, they know what there supposed to be doing.

I have to say that Richard explaining his guitars and setup was like seeing a kid entering a candy store.. before clicking this video, i thought that this would be the least interesting part of the video, but boy was i wrong. I have seen GNR twice here in Europe within the "not in this lifetime" tour, and his playing was on point, which had already impressed me then, but this video has definitely put him onto a new level for me. All that while he seems to be a humble and very down to earth guy. I might have to look around to try out some of the pedals he has mentioned.
@ericscottstevens

The Chris Derrig '59 replica was the unique signature sound of Slash that was never duplicated. Derrig died of cancer in 1987, some say because when he boiled his homemade recipe of lacquer over heated source for the finishes on the guitars inhaling the smoke byproduct. Twenty or so Les Paul copies were created in his short run, some have been identified and are in private ownership because they are highly coveted. More of his guitars are probably out there in existence without the owners knowing the extreme value. That Slash owned guitar along with the studio space they recorded the AfD guitar parts separately in a small booth. Taped the speaker to the floor at a certain angle not to bump it off it's mark, calculated the humidity, and used a rented Marshall amp (Slash ended up keeping and returned to the rental business by mistake).That very same Marshall rental amp was used earlier by George Lynch on Dokken studio albums.

I met you backstage back in 2006 and prayed you' would be the guy to be still standing when Axl and Slash put their stuff to rest and here you are. You were just as enthusiastic talking about gear and guitars as you are in this great interview. God bless you and I wish you every success brother!

I never knew Richard was such a cool person. I watched the entire video. I coulda watched another hour of Richard talking guitars and amps. Great video. I like the fact you brought a lot out of Richard without saying to much and just asking the right questions. Nice job man.

Thanks for the video. Great to see Adam Day back as Slash's tech. I knew nothing about Richard Fortus before and he seems to be a really great guy!

If I ever got famous....I hope I'd be the guy who actually talked my rig personally and didn't relegate it to my tech

Adam day "hers slashes Gibson" MC Bob "here's duffs fender" Richard "I got this guitar from a guy in LA, do you know him, well he makes phenomenal guitars" Richard likes guitars if there good, he doesn't care about brand

I mean Slash and Duff have custom made instruments, either exact copies of their 80s instruments or signatures designed by them and probably free. So technically they still have their first ones. But it’s just a cool thing that Richard can do, he doesn’t have to be “loyal” to a sound for 30+ years and he definitely exploits it.

Imagine Duff or Slash trying to explain this stuff 30-35 years ago, couldn't remember anything about the rig settings :)). Awsome guys these days better than in their prime and the interfere of Rich with this rundown was really such a catchy and natural add on
