PG’s Perry Bean and Black Mountain’s Stephen McBean chat about McBean’s Hiwatt-and-Fender amp setup, his favorite Gibson solidbodies, and his funky home-painted stomps before the band’s June 18, 2016, gig at Mercy Lounge in Nashville.
Stephen McBean’s No. 1 guitar is this 1978 Gibson Les Paul Standard loaded with Sheptone Heartbreaker pickups. He strings it with D’Addario .010 sets.
McBean’s main guitar on his last album was this Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster loaded with Seymour Duncan Antiquity I pickups and strung with D’Addario .010s.
