Rig Rundown - Slightly Stoopid's Miles Doughty and Kyle McDonald

Article and photos: http://bit.ly/SlightlyStoopidRR Before a show at Nashville’s War Memorial Auditorium, Miles Doughty tells Premier Guitar’s John Bohlinger about the guitar and bass rigs he and Kyle McDonald share while fronting Slightly Stoopid. Miles Doughty and Kyle McDonald split bass and guitar duties between them, sharing the same instruments throughout the night. The rigs have to accommodate both players’ personal tastes. For guitars, Slightly Stoopid seems to prefer double-humbucker-loaded Strat-style axes. The band’s No. 1 guitar features a relic’d body crafted by one of Doughty’s friends at Naked Guitars in San Diego. Doughtly added a Fender neck and loaded it up with a pair of Seymour Duncan pickups. He sometimes uses a pair of JB humbuckers, but occasionally will swap out the neck pickup for a Duncan Alnico II Pro Slash humbucker. He controls everything with a 3-way toggle switch. Rounding out the trio of communal guitars is this headless Kiesel Vader model that houses two Kiesel K12 humbuckers. The band just got this guitar before they left on tour and according to Miles, “It makes you feel like a giant.” To continue learning about their gear, visit: http://bit.ly/SlightlyStoopidRR
