Premier Guitar was allowed an in-depth look at the touring rig of Jesse Keeler, the bass player in Death From Above 1979. Keeler has inspired a devout following of bass players to take on a new role in punk, and his unique approach to gear has helped solidify DFA’s sound and propel them into cult status.

After being a longtime Rickenbacker user, Keeler is now very comfortable with a ’69 Dan Armstrong. He likes the short scale, 24-fret design, which better suits his playing style and approach than anything he’s ever played.

A ’71 tags along as a backup, and the only mod is a “permanent” bridge to keep his intonation constant.

Keeler also utilizes a vintage JUNO-60 keyboard which runs through his rig as well.
