Coheed and Cambria's Claudio Sanchez Guitar Gear Rig & Equipment
User Rating: / 26

Claudio Sanchez is the lead singer and guitarist for Coheed and Cambria, an awesome rock band, one of my favorites. He is noted for his high vocal range, often extending into an alto register in the manner of Geddy Lee, the unique enunciation of his vocals, and for his long hair with tightly-wound curls. While primarily playing rhythm during his vocals, Sanchez also plays lead, often alternating with guitarist Travis Stever in a "competitive, yet respectful guitar solo" fashion.

Let's look at what gear and equipment has been seen in Claudio Sanchez Guitar Rig.
