![Jared James Nichols Rig Rundown [2026]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/J05KrU-vJ0k/mqdefault.jpg "Jared James Nichols Rig Rundown [2026]
Jared James Nichols New Album: https://frontiers.shop/collections/jared-james-nichols
Premier Guitar Cover Story: https://www.premierguitar.com/features/artist-features/jared-james-nichols-loud-proud
Jared James Nichols has a few calling cards: his mane of total-rockstar hair, his giant steel-toed boots, and his sweet, stinging Gibson-plus-Marshall shredding. He just released his latest record, Louder than Fate, which landed him on the cover of Premier Guitar’s June issue.
PG’s Chris Kies met up with Nichols at Gym 5 in Nashville to get a look at his revamped, pared-down rig, based around a classic recipe: Gibson guitars, Marshall stacks, and a couple of stomps to push those elements to the edge.
