Like many Nashville-based musicians, he lost a number of instruments and other gear in the 2010 alluvion in Nashville, including a 1970s Gibson Les Paul and the paradigm for a Z Wreck, one of the signature Paisley Dr. Z amplifiers. The insurance money, however, allowed him to purchase (from George Gruhn's store) an sectional 1937 herringbone Martin D-28.[65]

In 2010, Paisley and Wampler Pedals released the Brad Paisley signature Paisley Drive, a guitar overdrive pedal designed to his specifications.[66] Paisley has also used Audiotech Guitar Products ABY Selector's for controlling his wireless receiver units.[67]

In 2015 Santa Cruz Guitar Company introduced the Brad Paisley Signature Model, B/Pw, acoustic dreadnought guitar. Paisley is often seen playing this model of guitar, such equally in the 2017 Netflix original Brad Paisley'southward Comedy Rodeo.

In 2016 Paisley and Dr. Z Amplification collaborated and released the DB4 model. The name DB4 is thus named considering it is "Doctor & Brad's fourth amp design".[68] The pentode preamp tube is a 5879 with EL84 output tubes.
