Rig Rundown – Citizen
Article & photos: http://bit.ly/CitizenRR
PG’s Perry Bean hung with guitarists Nick Hamm (above right), Ryland Oehlers, and bassist Eric Hamm before the band’s recent Nashville show at the War Memorial Auditorium where they opened up for Circa Survive and AFI. Eric and Ryland talk about switching to offset Fenders while Nick states his case why every bassist should have a Tech 21 SansAmp.
While recording and then performing Everybody is Going to Heaven, Nick primarily relied on a MIM Fender Tele, but since then he’s gravitated to this stock Fender Classic Player Jazzmaster. This was a favorite of producer Will Yip so you can hear on most of the tracks for the band’s upcoming album, As You Please.

I HAAATE how that model of Jazzmaster had the toggle switch above the strings. Seems like you'd accidently hit that so often playing live
I think these dudes are from my town.
Moby joined the band.
That’s my guy I’m sure he doesn’t remember me but it was my 30 bday and I said I’ll be your asshole out loud in Florida and got my record signed it was the best day of my life so far.
Interviewer talks all over him lol but I think it’s just because he is nervous
No way these guys don't listen to Nirvana haha
Haha is this PG host tweaking?
Do they get banged by the band's own copyright? Is that what happens with intos like that?
Hey what's up guys, it's me, PC Principle with Premier Guitar!!
Need a new one for the 2021 record
I like how Nick says "at least" he and Mat were 17-18 when they recorded the first record. Aren't he and Eric the bass player Twins so wouldn't he be 17-18 too?
the entire band. "never had a jazz but wanted to try something new"
Has anyone ever seen that first guitarist in the same room as Manchester Orchestra's guitarist? He may have everyone else fooled but hes not fooling me.
Yeah…perry was extra coked up for this one
Rad band. Great rundown.
6:03 whats the song?
Please do Basement!
Nick Hamm deserves more credit as a guitarist. When I saw Citizen live for the first time, I didn't know them. What won me over was the guitar part of 'The Night I Drove Alone'. Omg my heart was pounding. He is proof that you don't need speed picking, fancy licks or shredding to be an incredibly talented guitarist. His style is very original and he's gonna go really far.
If this interviewer’s not on coke, I will remove my testicles.
Didn’t know these guys were so young. That’s awesome
What's the song at the start
"Thanks for having me ahhh-uh-ohn". That was funny. Not sure what that was about.
Those are some great songs, playing in the background.
What year is that jcm800?
do one of Sorority Noise!
Please do Balance and Composure.
didn't know this vid existed! Thanks so much!
someone should do a statistic of how many times each pedal appears on every rig rundown video.
the boss tuner would be the champion by far..
(just when you thought that the internet has run out of ideas.. here's your moment of glory)
'I almost had a cow'
I just come to the comment section now for the Perry/cocaine jokes
Does his pedalboard go tuner-chorus-delay-reverb THEN his distortions???
Great interview. Love this band. Great questions and conversation.
Where's circa survives rig rundown?
8:10 thats june from tigers jaw!
