Gregoletto resides in Pompano Beach, Florida. Well known metal producer Colin Richardson called him the best bassist he has ever worked with. In an interview with Bass Guitar magazine (July/August), Gregoletto revealed that he uses a variety of techniques to perform his basslines, as is typical of modern bassists.
While he primarily used a pick to perform during the tour for Ascendancy, he now more frequently adopts a two fingered plucking style to pick out the more elegant counter-melodies and rapid pentatonic accompaniments necessary for some of "s material.
In the same article, he revealed that he prefers to warm up by performing chromatic exercises up and down the whole neck of the bass, using both plucking and picking styles. Gregoletto was endorsed by British Columbia Rich.
In the early days when he first joined the band he used a red custom shop Eagle bass. He has a signature 5-string Warlock bass, as well as a custom Mockingbird.
Gregoletto was also seen in the videos for "s 2015 singles "Silence in the Snow" and "Until the World Goes Cold" playing a 5-string Warwick Corvette with two humbuckers and a flame maple top.
He has been seen playing this same bass at live shows supporting Silence in the Snow. He stated on his Instagram account that he had now fully switched from British Columbia Rich to Warwick, but did not specify the reasons, though he still stated he loved his British Columbia Rich instruments.
