Lord Huron’s music has always seemed to arrive from someplace just beyond our world—a place of lost travelers, phantom riders, mysterious broadcasts, and songs carried across time. Now, the band is opening the doors to that world with an expansive collection of instruments, studio equipment, and one-of-a-kind artifacts coming to Reverb.
Launching July 29, the Official Lord Huron Reverb Shop will feature more than 100 pieces from the band’s recording sessions, touring rigs, music videos, and Whispering Pines Studios.
Among the standout instruments is a late-’50s Guild M-65 Freshman used on every Lord Huron album since Strange Trails, including "Frozen Pines." A ’60s Silvertone 1439 appeared on Vide Noir, Long Lost, Alive from Whispering Pines, and The Cosmic Selector Vol. 1, including “Not Dead Yet,” and traveled with the band for tours and television appearances.
The shop will also include a rare blue Fender Johnny Marr Jaguar used on Long Lost, notably for "Mine Forever," and a 1967 Guild Starfire V previously owned by Steely Dan’s Walter Becker. Lord Huron acquired the Starfire in 2019 and later used it on “I Lied” and other recording sessions.
Another highlight is the Flea 49 tube microphone purchased specifically for Long Lost. It served as one of the main vocal mics for Ben Schneider, August Ponthier’s performance on “I Lied,” and the Alive from Whispering Pines series.
More highlights include:
- A 1950s Gibson double-neck console lap steel used for Alive from Whispering Pines and seen in the “I Lied” music video
- A 1960s Epiphone Cortez heard on every album since Vide Noir, including "Lost in Time and Space," "The Balancer’s Eye," and "Emerald Star"
- A Danelectro U2 that was Ben Schneider’s second guitar and was later used on "The Yawning Grave"
- A Fulltone Tube Tape Echo used live and in the studio on every Lord Huron record since Strange Trails
- A 1969 Ludwig Black Oyster Pearl drum kit used on Vide Noir, Long Lost, The Cosmic Selector Vol. 1, and Alive from Whispering Pines
The shop also reaches into Lord Huron’s visual universe, with the Whispering Pines Museum sign from “Love Me Like You Used To,” the hand-painted WBUB sign from “I Lied,” and Admiral Barry’s portrait and jacket from the band’s videos.
Together, the collection offers a rare look inside the creative machinery of Lord Huron: the instruments, studio tools, and handmade artifacts that helped shape the band’s songs and the world surrounding them.
