Gear Check: Dijon's Touring Band | Fretboard Journal

The Fretboard Journal doesn't typically do live gear videos, but when our longtime contributor, Ryan Richter, joined Dijon's touring band, we couldn't pass up the opportunity. Here was a rare chance to shed light on the brilliant guitarists behind one of the most innovative artists performing today.

Dijon's touring guitarists:

Recorded at Seattle's the Crocodile on May 22, 2022 before Dijon's sold-out concert.

Would love to hear a Jack Karaszewski solo project. That stuff is right up my alley.

Everyone praising Mike (rightfully so, bro is a PIONEER of sound and guitar, a modern great), but can we all just appreciate Ryan ? He’s incredibly loving and supportive. A true humble soul who clearly loves to uplift those around him. He’s just a refreshing soul. Someone we all need in our lives. Especially within a band dynamic, he’s the real glue of the band.

Fuck I need more footage of Mike, he’s truly a god walking the earth

[SSSSAINTTTT]

At 13:50 kind of sounds like he plays a little bit of “you got it”

Thanks FJ, Ryan and the rest of the guys for taking the time out to do this. True creatives. And Mike G's style is so so cool...

[VinnieDaidoneGuitar]

Jack and Mike's rigs just blew my mind I think. Didnt know guitar could sound like that..


Using a Tascam 4 track as a preamp...brilliant.
