Does anyone have current and/or historical information as to Hayden's guitar choices, amplifier choices, etc.? Similarly, what about his bandmates's choices in gear? I read somewhere that Hayden has used Guild guitars. I am most interested to learn the various acoustic guitars that Hayden has used over the years. Thanks, forum mates, for any helpful info!

I have seen a photo of Hayden playing what appears to be a Gibson J-45? Certainly looks vintage. I wonder what year it is -- anyone have an idea?

I'm pretty sure he talks a bit about gear with Wayne Petti in the Southern Souls podcast here: https://player.fm/series/southern-souls ... /17-hayden

one secret i always wondered is how he gets his snare to sound that way. it's such a distinct loose, yet dry sound. a handful of years ago i was at a show...and 2 seconds into it, i could tell the opening act was using his kit.

Thanks, guys, for the info! I'd be interested to learn more about his gear and how he gets his sound (besides the songwriting and talent).

I'd also like to know about his recording gear. My understanding is he records to tape and digitizes it (last I heard), but I'd love to know more abou that, too.

i know he uses a Boss RC-30 for looping. but no clue what the drum machine is. he had most of it on the RC's memory.
