Rig Rundown – Mutemath
Article and photos: http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/24585-rig-rundown-mutemath
PG’s Chris Kies stopped down to Nashville’s Ascend Amphitheater before Mutemath’s hometown opening set with Twenty One Pilots and talked with the band’s two multi-instrumentalists Roy Mitchell-Cárdenas (above) and Todd Gummerman who showed off their JHS-loaded pedalboards. Plus, Roy details two interesting instruments while Todd explains how the guitar he plays has been in the band longer than him.
Roy Mitchell-Cárdenas bounces between guitar and bass during Mutemath sets. Here is his main guitar—a Sublime Guitar Company Chieftain. The guitar itself is stock, but it did originally come with a Pelham blue finish (think Dave Grohl’s Trini Lopez model), but he wanted to give the instrument a different identity. Roy used artwork from Jean-Michel Basquiat to cover the top. Only one upgrade has been made: The headstock was repaired by a friend with super glue after the guitar fell off a stand.
Guitarist/keyboardist Todd Gummerman doesn’t have a choice when it comes to his No. 1 instrument because the band has been recording and touring with this 1967 Silvertone 1429 since the early 2000s.

This is 2024 and I aways see myself coming back to this video. Love Mutemath.
The Chieftan Deluxe guitar is equipped with Porter pickups.
I like Mutemath, and by Mutemath, I mean the band from the first two albums! The original guitar player was the GOAT.
absolutely terrible band.
what is the song that starts on the background at 18:15?
these guys should check out JHS pedals. They'd love em
Can someone please explain to me how they manage to play the bass without an amp? I know he explained it in the video, but I need more details. Thanks.
the roots "the seed" sound check lol

so many people in the comments dont know mutemath? wtf were you born just a couple years ago or something?

Get those advert boxes out of the way of the gear.
The band that inspired me to become a musician and performer. I freaking love this band! Their first album is killer
The pickups looks like SD phat cats, maybe… 😀
MM is legendary.
Am I the only one who watches as many of these as I can just to see different effects pedal chains and amps? I mean I only of liked 2 or 3 of the bands I've ever seen on these but I still love watching the videos even if I don't know who the band is and will never listen to them.
The Roots sound checking in the background?

The pickups look like duesenberg pickups.
Lol nice

"What are the pickups?"
"Man, I don't know…"
Well, thanks for wasting my time.
They can do better than a guy that sticks stuff on a junk guitar!

Second guy has a voice which reminds me a king of the hill character.
