Geordie's strings for most likely his LP SG and Les Paul Recording. They are Thomastik-Infeld Jazz Swing .013's or JS113's for short. (guitar dot com)

The strings used for his Reverend Baritone are Ernie Ball 13-72's

In addition to strings, I have also discovered the finish title to Greep's Reverend Baritone.

While it looks very similar to the 'Coffee Burst' being sold currently. It is actually an older finish from ~2015, called 'Violin Brown'. (Thanks, Tim from Reverend for the help)

Geordie's 'The New Sound' Pedalboard

It's basically the same as his black midi board but there's some differences.

Greep using his heavenly powers (pitchfork)

Let's start with the basics, Greep has used the EXH Deluxe Memory Man w/ Hazarai since forever, he obviously is a big fan. He also continues to use the Suhr Riot pedal for distortion.

Geordie adjusting his Memory Man, the Riot is also in view. Keep in mind this is an older board and slightly different than todays board. Also, notice the Vox AC15 in the back. (flopmidi)

In the board above, you can see that he is also using his Keeley Bubbletron from back when he replaced his DOD Gonkulator with it.

The newest edition to Geordie's board is the EarthQuaker Afterneath V2, and the Origin Effects Cali76 (not pictured below)

Memory Man, Perfect Volume, Bubbletron, Afterneath V2 and TU-3 (connected to tuner output of volume pedal) in clear(ish) view with this photo. (Amy)

You can also see the Cali76 in this picture (flopmidi)

To supply power to these pedals, Geordie is using a MXR Iso-Brick with a bunch of duct-tape covering it.

The volume pedal is a Shin's Music Perfect Volume pedal, a slightly-rare passive pedal.

The board from Geordie's MAP Residency, the Cry Baby has gone on and off of his pedalboard. Currently, It is off. (livelaughlavin)

I have made a digital reconstruction of the pedalboard, courtesy of Pedaltrain. The board Geordie is using is the Pedaltrain Metro 24.

Due to the deepcut-ness of the Perfect Volume pedal, It's not of the website, so I just relabeled it.

That, I believe, is all for today, If you have any questions, comments or corrections, please put them in that box at the top of the blog.

I'm only human, I make a lot of mistakes, but I think a majority of this info is correct. I will update this If I get new info.

Geordie Greep's setup for 'The New Sound' tour

For the more Latin-centered music of his new album, Geordie seems to prefer humbucker'ed guitars

Geordie probably doing some crazy thing on guitar (u/fishnut824)

Greep's newest addition to his guitars is a late 70's Gibson Les Paul Recording. The large function of this guitar being that it has more in depth tone controls that really any guitar out there, featuring phase control and a knob labeled 'Decade'

A listing for a Les Paul Recording. (Reverb)

He has also taken his 60's Gibson Les Paul SG, an early version of the SG that had not been branded as SG yet. so they put it under Les Paul's name. Which he did not approve of and forced them to change it. SG meaning Solid-body Guitar.

A Les Paul SG, notice the engraving on the truss rod cover, "Les Paul" (Truetone Music)

I have yet to find a non-blurry or obstructed photo of Geordie's pedalboard for this tour, but in this show, you can clearly see that he still is using his Deluxe Memory Man w/ Hazarai. He's been using this pedal since the earliest black midi shows

If you have any photos of Greep's pedalboard for this tour, please send them my way. Or you'll have to wait for me to get a picture in May.

The blue box with the black strip (markit aneight)

The amp he uses is a Fender Princeton Reverb Amp silverface (not the ToneMaster version)

Mister bongo on the bongos. And also the Princeton Reverb Amp in the bottom right (u/fishnut824)

I believe that's all for today. Please correct me if any of this information is wrong, I'm trying my best.

Matt's Pedalboard - 2018 (Feat. Morgan)

Matt turning his Nemesis Delay on and off repeatedly

A slightly altered version of his pedalboard used throughout the tour of Schlagenheim. Most notably, an RC-30 not seen anywhere else.

The signal chain of Matt's pedals is pretty standard; fuzz first, delay last. Although we cannot see the full pedal board in this video, it's safe to assume that the missing space is occupied by a tuner pedal.

The board goes as follows:

Guitar (Fender Tele Standard) ->

TU-3 ->

Fat Fuzz Factory ->

Holy Grail MAX ->

Nemesis Delay ->

RC-30 ->

Amp (Unknown at the time)

I also constructed a digital recreation of the pedalboard (Courtesy of Pedaltrain dot com)

The board Matt is using is a Pedaltrain Metro 20

In other news, I found the kit that Morgan used for the Flesh and Bones show.

It is a custom 4 Piece White kit from Liberty Drums, with a Pearl White Snare

black midi @ Flesh and Bone Studios

In black midi's debut on screen (other than personal phone footage), they play their single, 'Talking Heads'. We also get to see that Matt looks like a baby. Well, they all do really. You can watch the video here.

Immediately, you can see that Cam playing his Eastwood Sidejack 32 Bass, It's possible that he had his Rickenbacker 4003 at the time but chose to bring this bass when playing live, seeing that getting a $4000 bass stolen is a lot more devastating.

Both Cameron and Geordie's vocals are recorded with Shure SM7D's

Geordies guitar is his Reverend Descent Baritone. Curiously, It is in a finish not offered by Reverend. Meaning it could be a custom shop (But Reverend doesn't do customs) or it was a limited edition finish that I can't find.

The duct tape on the strap pegs is from a show during of which his guitar would continuously would fall off when adjusting pedals and instead of buying strap locks we just taped it up and it's been up ever since (you can see later in Geordie's career, the type of duct tape actually changes, it most likely wore out from years of jumping around on stage).

Matt's seemingly one and only guitar, his Fender Telecaster Standard is in it's full metallic-red glory in this video (pre-duct tape).

You can also clearly see that the pickup selector switch cap is missing, most likely because they always fall off and it's more of a pain to try to pick it up than just not have it.

I don't really know much about drums but I know that Morgan's very happy and that he's wearing an MF DOOM shirt. It's also probably his Rodgers White Drumkit used for the recording and playing of Schlagenheim
