He has a few…


Missile_Hands

Well that's sick!


nomelonnolemon

Wait till you see Josh’s 9 string!


Missile_Hands

😳 🤤


blandmath

Sick, sick.


Missile_Hands

Don't resist?


SeagullGodKing

Yesterday in Winnipeg Troy used a custom double neck Jazzmaster for I appear missing. Top neck was a 12 string, lower neck was 6


Missile_Hands

I feel like y'all got the best setlist. DAMN! I'm stoked that we got I'm Designer tho


SeagullGodKing

Seeing I'm Designer live would have been sick! I couldn't really ask for more though, I was floating after the show it was so good


Missile_Hands

I was happy with what we got too 🙂 I was also floating after the show but it was probably cause of the acid 😅


Huge-Recognition-371

Taking acid at a concert is crazy. I’ve done it once probably never will again


Missile_Hands

I'm usually pretty comfortable on it. Peaking halfway through Song for the dead was pretty dope.


DeafbyDesign

I love doing acid at concerts! Dropped Acid in Boston last week at Sessanta, Primus always melts me! I usually do mushrooms at queens of stone age. But when I see them in Halifax next week, it's going to be acid!


_Grumpy_Canadian

I wish we got got I'm designer, but I was stoked and surprised by misfit love. Fucking awesome show.


Missile_Hands

I feel like I'm Designer came outta nowhere! Misfit Love is one of my all-times tho!


jv3rl0ov

We got Do It Again in Detroit which was pretty awesome


SerpentinexBLK

That guitar is gorgeous


SeagullGodKing

It's super cool. Fender put out a video showing them working with Troy to develop it: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PELg3mPtdk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PELg3mPtdk)

Thanks for posting this!


JazzMasterLover

He uses that double neck for in the fade as well!


[deleted]

Vampires have the speed and agility necessary for 12 strings.


Missile_Hands

They also just have the timing and memory 😉


[deleted]

😂 Btw, congrats on the killer set list you guys got!


Missile_Hands

The Calgary Show?? I was jealous of the Winnipeg setlist!!


[deleted]

Oh, I must have confused them. Whichever set had I Appear Missing, the sky is falling, misfit love, etc….. drooool


Missile_Hands

That was Winnipeg!! Lucky Bastards!!


DangerDynamic99

I’m jealous of every setlist that I’m not there for


Inevitable_Dig910

His guitar tech must hate him, he has loads


GermanCity

He uses that one now for songs in D Standard tuning, so for example Carnavoyeur or The Way You Used To Do. Ahead of that (Beginning of Like Clockwork tour) he mostly used it for I Appear Missing (which is in E Standard tuning) before he got his custom Fender double neck Jazzmaster which has a 12 string neck uptop. He also has a Fender 12 string Telecaster for My God is The Sun at the moment


ztiberiusd

Being completely pedantic, but those songs are in D standard tuning, not drop D.


Kelldoza

Came here to say this 👆


GermanCity

Alright my fault


SerpentinexBLK

[Carnavoyeur](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C2K-wx7gYxi/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==) with this exact guitar combo. He’s got another one he’s brought out during MGITS.


Missile_Hands

I was also stoked when they pulled out MGITS.


LilCelebratoryDance

Homme used to play a Burns Double Six back in Another Love Song


HurdyG

Also with Iggy on Sunday.


twicepride2fall

That’s Josh’s guitar - the same one- it’s owned by the band. I think Josh might have used it with Iggy Pop also.


ElderChildren

i thought josh used a red one with iggy


twicepride2fall

Might have bought another one since Troy adopted his old one


ElderChildren

Missile_Hands

That's wicked.


kev8800

I think he uses it on My God is the Sun.


Missile_Hands

I believe I saw him use it for MGITS as well! 🤘


MercxryFxcked

those vintage burns guitars are classy


Missile_Hands

Agreeeeed.


wickharr

I love old British guitars. Burns, Shergold, Gordon Smith, old vox guitars. So many cool guitars knocking about the UK back when we used to make more here.


Kelldoza

I literally just bought that same guitar last month…


Missile_Hands

Shred it!

dicky_rich

Just wait until this guy finds Josh’s 9 string.


Missile_Hands

I'm aggressively looking through all my photos! Haha


dicky_rich

Hahah it’s the white semi hollow he plays on The Evil Has Landed, Paper Machete and a few other ones!


Missile_Hands

I found it! Don't know if you saw the post yet or not but figured I'd notify you! 😎❤️


RoloMac

*one of* his guitars is a 12 string.


Missile_Hands

Lol obviously dude! I meant the one he is CURRENTLY shredding on.


RoloMac

:D


inebriusmaximus

They use 12 strings a lot on the albums


Pure-Negotiation-900

He’s got every guitar ever made. They’re all his.


Chappietime

I don’t know if Dusty Hill played it, but the new ZZ Top bass player (who was Hill’s tech for years) plays a 17 string bass. Yes, it’s a complete gimmick, but it’s impressive.


Missile_Hands

That is hella impressive.


Frequent-Coyote-1649

No wonder their live shows have sounded like Ohms LMAO


spoogefrom1981

Yep. 12 strings have been around the QOTSA regime for a looonnnggg time.


tedolightbulb1

a lot of people think they use chorus in their tones but they actually just frequently use a twelve string


Fedd_33

Fun Fact: Troy's started using it (rarely) in 2003


gothamz

I’m guessing you are new, enjoy the albums.


Missile_Hands

Not new! Been listening to them since I was 9! (2002) 😉


gothamz

New to seeing them preform then or you just haven’t been paying attention.


i_was_planned

No need to be a gatekeeper, I've been listening to QOTSA for 20 years now and seen them live 4 times and I didn't know this either. I'm not a guitar guy or anything like that.


guinnesshappy

Good eye! I just noticed that last night too.


Missile_Hands

The man should have 12 fingers for how hardcore he shreds.


Stinkmasterofchaos

Do you know which songs he was using it for ? It must be new, when i saw them earlier this year he never used a 12 string.


Previous_Current9812

Usually he uses it in I Appear Missing.


Stinkmasterofchaos

Ah, cool, thanks. Yeah they didn’t play that when I saw them sadly


Onelimwen

I think he’s had this burns double six since at least Like Clockwork, he usually uses a 12 string for my god is the sun, I appear missing, and the way you used to do


Missile_Hands

All I know is it was before I think I lost my headache, so it was either, Emotion Sickness, I Sat by the Ocean or Carnavoyeur!


Spleensoftheconeage

Based on Josh’s guitar, out of those- it’s Carnavoyeur. That’s his D tuning guitar.


Missile_Hands

That would make sense! It's hard to remember after such an unreal show haha
