Ian Hill retired his vintage Jazz bass decades ago and now exclusively rocks his signature Spector models. He brings along four of them and strings them up with DR Black Beauties strings. Two of the quartet use the BKB 50 set (.050–.070–.090–.110) and are tuned down a half step. The other two use the lowest four strings of a 5-string set (.065–.085–.105–.125).
Richie Faulkner’s main axe is his signature Epiphone Flying V that has a mahogany body and neck with an ebony fretboard. This sig features EMG 57 and 66 pickups along with a licensed Floyd Rose 1000 tremolo. The V is strung with Ernie Ball Nickel Wound .011–.048 strings and tuned down a half step.

I played with you Richie at the Misty Moon in Camden round 2006. And you were with that LP . Cheers from Chile mate. Hope you invite me backstage when you come ????????
Ian Hill ????????????????????
Can anyone say or confirm whether Richie's basic demo/interview sound (less the obvious delay repeats)in this video is on a delay/reverb, or are we hearing a room delay from the arena through their vocal mics? These days it seems every guitar or rig demo goes though a tiny bit or a mountain of delay/reverb, and to me, almost anything sounds cool that way. The true test for me is a dry signal to hear guitar or amp characteristics, no?
Hey BEAVIS nice interview !
Where is gleen
This episode completely changed my mind about ritchie. He seems very humble about his position in priest.
Priest did not start heavy metal music. We all know that was black sabbath. Priest forefronted the metal look.
???????? 32:00 “Those trails are great man…..”????????????
Ian is such a nice person????
God bless Ian Hill. Solid as a rock
Hope there is going to come a rig rundown from Richies current setup soon!!! ????
What a cool guy, Judas Priest players are always sooo sweet and cool.
This isn't the original lineup. I was hoping to see Glen's and KK's gear.
And rob halford plays a mean skin flute
Imagine if that guy from Rage Against the Machines had a pedal board that worked and operated like a Dance Dance Revolution game. No more need for a one footed balancing act . You could run around like AcDc and still activate effects without skipping a beat
Am Wochenende
Great rig run down
Played pool with Ian at Rocker's in Phoenix. We all hung out there.
Been to Priest parties at The Point,…
also,…
SOOOOOOOMUCHFUN
Hughes and Kettner are my favorite amps, with ENGL a close second. Don't play alot of guitar being a drummer, but the tone those amps create are what I am hearing in my head when I think heavy metal guitar. Everybody talks about the "British" sound. And yeah Marshall pretty good and an Icon in music. Orange as well. But I like the dirtier sound found in German amps, but they are not so much that you lose articulation. Not sure how the Germans do it, just glad they did. Yes they do "chug"! lol (Hands Down the 2 best distortion pedals out there are 1) Walrus Audio Iron Horse V3 or 2) Pussy Melter Distortion Pedal from the guys Steel Panther/ Satchel. Both are excellent distortion pedals – and help give metal music the sound that makes metal kick ass!)
Great! Ian and Richie are awesome people and musicians.
I would love to see/hear a RR on Zakk and Rex with Pantera. I may be alone on that island.
"And here's another guitar you puny, peasants will never afford. Haha!"
Legend has it that some Flying V as so cool that would granted entrance in VALHALLA
Awesome interview, both Ian and Richie Seem like a cool dudes.
Hey look there's Nita with a flying V
I was in Karlsruhe West Germany for a Priest Screaming for Vengeance. Richie could not have been a couple of years old. Freaking awesome.
Such a great interview and just quality content. Interviewer is class solid questions and style on these interviews.
