the thing that I love about Jonsi is that he's a post-rock icon. as indie as you can get. yet he plays Les Paul style humbucker guitars into a Marshall!

Orri’s setup was. Vic Firth 5a sticks, vic firth jazz brushes (the white hard plastic handle ones), REMO on toms; emperor clear (both over and under), snare emperor coated and ambassador hazy on the snare side. Drums are C&C maple/gum/maple Main kick 20x14 Side kick 26x14 Rack tom 13x9 Floor 1 18x15 Floor 2 16x15 (yes the larger one is the main and smaller is secondary) C&C 14x6 maple/poplar/maple as main and m/g/m as secondary All crash cymbals are Sabian AAX series 18”, 19” and 20”, hi-hats are 18” crash cymbals, top is a virgil donati signature and the bottom is a symphonic. Ride is a paiste 602 flat ride. Then he used various chromatic gongs and a 20” ride he laid on top of the snare and floor tom for songs like Andvari. Hope this helps😊

I’m gonna have to build a copy of Jonsi’s Les Paul.. I’m using a cello bow on my SG and right now I’m using Dunlop 10-52s because that’s what Robin Trower uses but I need thicker strings. I found some D’Addario 12-60s. I also use my SG for normal strumming so I have to clean off the rosin dust. Looking for a cheap Les Paul our a DIY kit or even just parts to build from scratch.
