Fender Stratocaster

Michael Clifford relies on Fender Stratocasters for their bright, cutting single-coil tone that defines 5SOS's clean rhythm passages and pop-rock foundation. The light string gauges paired with stock single-coils allow quick picking and dynamic bending that responds to his technique rather than relying on heavy gain.

Fender Deluxe Reverb

The Fender Deluxe Reverb provides 5SOS with natural tube compression and warm reverb character that blends cleanly with solid-state amps in their hybrid recording approach. This tube amp pushes into natural saturation for organic overdrive tones without needing dedicated distortion pedals, keeping their sound transparent and technique-focused.
