In early May 2015, Premier Guitar crashed Dashboard Confessional’s rehearsal in Nashville and met with Chris Carrabba between songs. Carrabba revealed the acoustic/electric rig that drove Dashboard from emo obscurity to the soundtrack of Spider-Man 2.
Carrabba loves old guitars. For electrics, he tours with a 1961 Gibson Les Paul Jr. and a racing striped 1967 Fender Mustang with a matching headstock. Both are strung with D’Addario EJ21.
For acoustics, Carrabba goes with his beloved and beaten 1970 Martin 0-18 and his 2014 custom-made Martin 00-18 with 3-piece back. The acoustics are strung up with D’Addario EJ17 strings and Carrabba prefers Dunlop Shell Plastic thumb picks and Paige capos.

I’m really fascinated and moved by the thought that our instruments will pass on and be owned and used by someone else. My two sons are little, but I bought each of them an acoustic guitar to have for when they are older. They’ll have them when I am gone, and hopefully they’ll be able to pass them to their kids.

@pthfan712 7 лет назад

He just lives in his own little world I feel like. Strange guy but knows his stuff and that's why I like him so much. Such a great artist.

Everyone has to love John Bolinger....he's a formidable musician, great compassionate human being and who else could possibly cram as many Wow's & Cool's into a 40 minute video...!

@stacywernick3854 9 лет назад

Fantastic Rig Rundown - one of the best I've seen in quite some time. You can really tell Chris puts time and effort into choosing his words when discussing his gear.

He doesn't like to bend strings a lot. He will not bend (or rarely will), he will not break.

@darrenclark9776 8 лет назад

+Carl Stacey I totally agree. I had a couple of albums of his when i was in high school. Further Seems Forever stuff. It was really great but I never got into the emo scene. I'd never heard this guy speak and was a bit hesitant to watch him talk about his gear but wow.....what a cool guy and eloquent speaker. The interviewer drives me insane. It's his voice.....its annoying and his presence seems so fake and staged.

My old band went on tour with NFG, and while we were in FLA, Chris came to the show 'cause he's friends with them from way back, and i have to say, he's one of the nicest most genuine dudes ever. He spent an hour just talking to me like i was his friend, and even invited our band to come sleep over his house, but we couldn't 'cause we were headed the other way.

@brendanfisher 4 года назад

Is that a 2-tone Rolex Datejust Chris is wearing? Also, he appears to be wearing a wedding ring. I've never known Chris to be married or even partnered for that matter. Was he married at that time? I saw him live in Dublin last year and he made reference to his mother (or possibly grandmother) asking him when he's "going to find a nice girl".

@charlesbolton8471 3 года назад

I met Chris after a Twin Forks show in 2014. Someone else asked if he was married. He said he was, but he didn’t go into any details (how long, to whom, children or not, etc.). He made it clear he wanted to keep his personal life private. He did tell us that he was living in Murfreesboro, TN (which is about 30 miles south of Nashville). That’s all the personal information he gave.

@EliBraudFishing 9 лет назад

Endorsements are funny. Martin probably has different levels for endorsees. The "Martin Artist" level is probably the highest and the "Ambassador" level is probably a little bit lower. His guitar is a custom, not a signature. They'd probably do a custom for anyone, as long as you have the funds for it. Regardless, it's a beautiful guitar.
