Funny, I remember a "Jibbob" track that surfaced around here that had rather GOOD tone...

JEM7DBK -> Boss GT-6 -> Carvin SX200-D

sounds great though.. bear in mind, i used to have a funnier rig.. lol.. which was:

prince lx-22g -> zoom 505 II -> any earphone

so i guess i made quite an upgrade.. lol.. i guess ill just spend my days with these new rig until im rich enough to afford a new better ones..

updates!!!

i've put back the breeds into my dbk, it was equipped with evos but i figured i like the breeds' sound better.. so now my chain is:

jem 7 dbk -> modded cs-3 -> GCB 95 wah -> boss sd-1 (fulltone fulldrive mod) -> boss ds-1 (evil distortion mod) -> hughes & kettner warp factor -> danelectro fish & chips EQ -> boss ns-2 -> boss ch-1 -> danelectro PB&J delay -> ernie ball volume -> carvin sx-200d

wow.. quite an upgrade eh? i still use my gt-6 for preamps, or sometimes when i need simplicity. the zoom 505II, i just dont feel like putting it up for sale, it's my first effect ever and it got me started playing guitar it has some sentimental values..

btw, check out indyguitarist mods!!! they're very cheap n they're really awesome!!! i really recommend the fulltone fulldrive mod on sd-1, it's the most indispensable thing in my setup

Finally got my rack up and running. Here are a couple pics. My two main guitars are the Ibanez JEM on the left, and the LP on the right.

In the rack from top to bottom:

Furman Power Conditioner
Rane SM26 Line Mixer
Korg DTR-1000 Tuner
Mesa Boogie Triaxis
Mesa Simul Class 2:90
Eventide GTR4000 Ultra Harmonizer

The remaining two spaces are going to be filled with a power amp/cabinet simulator (for playing small gigs and at church, and as backup for the 2:90) and the final space would go to a wireless unit, or maybe another effects processor, I haven't really decided at this point. Absent from the picture is a 1960A Marshall 4x12, but you all know what those look like [/url]

Yep, there's a thread about it in jem/universe guitars somewhere (and thanks for the compliment). It's probably coming to bits soon though as I have another project on the go that I need the hardware/pickups for (I'll hang on to the body and neck as I'm sure it'll make another appearance later, perhaps with pink/purple pyramid inlays to match......)

[whoosh]

Here is my little collection

Stringed things:
- Ibanez RG1570
- Fender Stratocaster jap. 60s re-issue with the fretboard re-radiused to 12" and the trem swapped out for an USA re-issue
- custom built Telecaster with mahogany back and birdseye maple top
- Art & Lutherie acoustic
- Squier Jazzbass

Amps:
- LAB L9 with the 15" replaced with a 12" speaker
- unknown 15w practice amp
- Behringer V-AMP2 with FCB1010 footcontroller. I use this all the time, mostly straight into the mixer, but sometimes hooked up to the L9's poweramp.

Various:
- Behringer 2442FX mixer
- Behringer Multicom 4-channel compressor/gate
- Alesis 3630 2-channel compressor/gate
- Behringer Ultragraph 2-channel 31 band equalizer
- Behringer Virtualizer 2-channel multi-effect
- Behringer Ultrafex exciter
- Behringer Powerplay 12-channel headphone amp
- Behringer Tube Ultragain pre-amps (2 of them)
- Superlux condenser microphones (3 of them)

Most of the time my V-AMP2 is hooked up to the mixer with one of the compressors and the equalizer as an insert on the channels. The Virtualizer is on 2 aux channels.
The exciter and headphone-amps are on the monitor outputs of the mixer.
I use the microphones for the acoustic or to mike up the L9.

With all of the rack turned on, it makes a pretty lightshow to compensate for my playing abilities

So, all of the above for playing guitar hehe, and ofcourse it comes in handy if friends drop in to jam, they just hook up to the mixer and no complaining from the neighbours becasue of the headphones
