Tools of the Trade
Every great sound starts with great equipment. Here's what The Frontmen use to make their noise.
Vocals & Guitar
Billy's main axe - a fully hollow-body Casino with that classic chimey, semi-clean tone favoured by everyone from John Lennon to Noel Gallagher. Looks as good as it sounds.
Billy's second guitar covers the Strat tones - crisp, cutting, and versatile for everything from clean arpeggios to crunchy rhythm work.
A scrappy SG-style axe that brings the crunch when it's needed. Every guitarist needs a beater - this is Billy's.
Billy's main amp - a smart cabinet powered by Positive Grid's tone engine, giving him a huge range of amp and effects sounds in a compact, stage-ready package.
The amp that gave the band their name. The Fender Frontman was Billy's first amp and the one that started it all - a piece of Frontmen history.
Guitar
Conor's guitar of choice - and one with a story. This Cort CL-1000 once belonged to his uncle, making it not just a great instrument but a proper piece of family history.
100 watts of versatile, stage-ready tone. The Katana's built-in effects and multiple amp characters give Conor everything he needs from clean to full crunch.
Dedicated footswitch for the Katana 100 - keeps Conor's hands on the guitar while switching channels and toggling effects on the fly.
A compact Blackstar combo that punches well above its size - perfect for rehearsals and smaller rooms where the Katana is overkill.
A battery-powered mini amp with Bluetooth - great for practising anywhere without needing a plug. Small but surprisingly capable.
The classic wah pedal - expressive, responsive, and unmistakable. Conor's got the full Hendrix toolkit at his feet.
One of the most iconic distortion pedals ever made. The DS-1 gives Conor that raw, aggressive crunch - simple, reliable, and mean.
A compact but powerful amp modeller and multi-effects unit - 55 amp models, built-in effects, and a looper in a pedalboard-friendly package.
Bass Guitar
The Classic Vibe Jazz Bass brings that iconic Fender low-end - versatile, comfortable, and great for everything from groove to punch.
A vintage-voiced short-scale with warm, punchy tone that sits perfectly in the band's rock sound.
100 watts of clean, punchy bass through Fender's modern Rumble design. Lightweight, loud, and more than capable of holding its own in a live rock mix.
An acoustic amp that doubles as a clean, full-range option for Finn - great for smaller shows and rehearsals where the full Rumble rig isn't needed.
Drums
Evan's weapon of choice - Sonor kits are renowned for their build quality, punchy tone, and reliability. Built to take a beating night after night.
Evans skins - obviously. The drummer called Evan plays Evans. Some things are just meant to be.
Meinl's cymbals bring warmth, character, and plenty of cut - sitting perfectly in the band's live rock sound.
Details coming soon.
