After watching C&C during a Rock in Rio live stream, I noticed that he's using only the Rectifiers with Mesa 4x12s in the backdrop.

Quoting James:
So are those the right strings Everly B-52's if not msg me i wanna know if anyone does know thanks!!


They (Travis/Claudio) both use DR strings - In an interview with GUitar Player he mentions that he ones he uses are custom guage (Heavy bottom/Light Top) and he doesn't know what the exact guages are...Not much help I know :s...On a sidenote, I've played B-52's and they're awwwweeeesome strings.

Just FYI, a lot of this is inaccurate.

Claudio now plays three amps: a Bogner Uberschall, an Orange OR-50 Anniversary Series, and a Fender Twin Reverb.

His guitars are a 1980 E/2 in natural brown, a black 76' reissue Explorer with a doorknocker and a Bigsby, and EMGs, and a stock heritage cherry explorer. He has since retired his white explorer.

0 #34 saw coheed last night — uberproaud 2010-09-07 19:49
I saw Coheed last night (9-2-2010). The rig listing is accurate. Claudio only used Explorers last night. He had one orange cab and one black cab (bogner) on stage. He was using the Bogner head and the
Orange head. They were sitting on top of a combo amp that was facing the guitar tech. From the 3rd row I could see the MM4 and DL4 on top of the cabs, but couldn't get a good luck at much else.

I'm honestly suprised no one's updated his rig yet - or I'm just THAT big of a geek that I care to update it :-)

According to last months Guitar Player magazine interview he's using/used the following gear.

-MXR-118 analog delay
-The Great Destroyer by Dwarfcraft
-Interstellar OD by Death by Audio
-Custom DR's (heavy bottom, lighter top)
-DR DDT's
-.73 Dunlop picks

and it says he recently purchased a 1981 Ibanez Musician

let the boutique pedal buying begin :-)

The face on the "gangsta guitar" is claudio's fathers face. Not scar face.
Quote
 
 
+2 #31 Gangsta — Thomas Kidd 2010-07-26 12:34
Claudio has officially answered who the stencil on his White Explorer is. He stated that a few years back he made a stencil for his father that said "Gangsta" under it. He also stated that at various family get together's the stencil would pop up at random in one way or another. He then clarified the statement saying something along the lines of "So Yeah, the stencil is of my father."

I saw Coheed at the 9:30 club last night and was right on the rail and Claudio has a Voodoo Lab effects controller and seemed to have the pedals on a board on top of his cab behing him. He also had a white explorer with a picture of scarface on it and "Gangsta" written on the body, and an explorer with a door knocker and a bigsby tailpiece.

The Theremin he used is a Moog Etherwave Theremin. I'm not sure if he used any effects for the theremin. during The Final Cut, him and Keyboardist Wes Styles switch on and off playing the theremin. I don't know if Wes Styles uses the same theremin.

Yup, he played a 1980 Gibson Flying V at Boston. Pretty awesome guitar.

it's a theremin. and if you think that claudio playing it was cool, jimmy page from led zeppelin used one too and you can see him use it on the song remains the same dvd.

In the final cut solo from the neverender dvd claudio uses a nasty wah sound that sounds kind of like porn music. Was that from the dunlop crybaby or the other wah pedal i saw up there.

also if you guys have a practice amp and an explorer i suggest the vox saturator. I play this through my roland cube 20x combo. I can get any tone with that setup. My gibson explorer standard, roland amp, saturator.

0 #19 About the Minarik — Chad 2009-06-27 11:35
Another guitar your missing is his custom white Medusa, with the crazy inlays and the Keywork in the headstock. I think he first used it in the Neverender tour, maybe a few shows before that.

+1 #18 Jack 2009-04-30 21:53
It's a device called a theremin. There's a wikipedia article on it that's actually pretty good.

0 #17 help me!!! — Will Trenum 2009-04-30 10:51
I just recently saw Neverender (coheeds new DVD) and claudio was using this wierd synth (I think) that was a black box with a metal bar going up at a 90 degree angle and it was about 18 inches long coming out of one end. and on the other there was a kind of metal loop.. it made the craziest most UFO like sound and was motion sensor controlled (from what I could tell).. can someone please tell me what this is?!?! it's on the song 'the final cut' thanks!!

That may be something he used to switch amps or it could be used turn on his amp's overdrive

+1 #10 PapaMidNite 2008-08-26 10:50
He has that red Minarik Medusa but he has a custom white Medusa know with the Coheed and Cambria logo on the headstock and a Custom neck. A very beautiful guitar.

0 #9 effects loop — Chris Kilgannon 2008-08-16 19:25
So do you guys know how his rig is set up? does he run the effects bored through the loop or just straight into the amp? And do you have any idea what his settings on the Uberschall are? Thanks so much
~Chris

Last time I saw them live claudio was using this pedal board (or at least 90%) With a Bogner Uberschall head, Mesa quad and EMG'd Explorers.

Might I add that it was one of the best live guitar tones I've ever heard. So clear and precise. I usually hate EMGs so I'm putting it down to the Uberschall and his fingers.

You forgot to mention that he also has a Basic Theremin along with it all. (Usually only during the Final Cut live.)
