Andy Gill, founding member of Gang of Four, talked gear with PG’s John Bohlinger while in Nashville at the Mercy Lounge. Gill is known for his hard hitting, jagged guitar riffs that helped to shape post-punk in late-’70s England. Not one to remain locked in the past, Gill’s rig and approach to live and recorded guitar has evolved into something decidedly modern.
Andy Gill has been through a lot of guitars over his long career. His No. 1 for the past several decades is this ’80s Fender Strat Ultra that has been modified with a kill switch.
This Reverend Double Agent also serves time during a Gang of Four set. It has an angry P-90 in the neck with a humbucker in the bridge. All of Gill’s guitars are strung up with Ernie Ball 2222 (.09–.046) Hybrid Slinky strings.
