"Big" Dan Jacobs - The Gear He Uses

Have you ever wondered what kind of gear or what kind of rig some of the Rock House Instructors use? After crawling around the web and with a little help from Wikipedia, I was able to come up with a pretty good list of what “Big” Dan Jacobs of ATREYU uses.

I like the simplicity of what he uses and it’s a fantastic example that shows you don’t need to own 15 pedals to get the sound that you want.

Here’s the list I came up with, if there’s something you’ve noticed that I missed then post a comment on it to help complete the list.

Dan Jacobs guitar rig/gear:
  • ESP LTD Dan Jacobs Signature Electric Guitar
  • Various ESP Custom EX models
  • Various ESP Custom M Models ESP George Lynch M-1
  • Tiger Marshall JCM800 and Jubilee amplifier heads with matching Marshall 4x12 cabinets
  • Boss Overdrive
  • DigiTech Chorus
  • DigiTech Delay
  • Boss Noise Suppressor

Hey there,

I've noticed from the "Right side of the bed" filmclip, the only one where his rig is really visible is that he is using an old 5150+ and a mesa cab?? pretty much the usual stuff for a metal guitarist.
