Well firstly got rid of my old amp, and now, in all its majesty, the MESA boogie Roadking stands high atop my recto cab.. its a BEAST of an amp. crazy stuff, im loving it!!
and as for the guitars, well, i sold ALL my
ibanez guitars, tastes have changed, and im going for a thicker darker sound, so now its gibsons, jacksons and im also paying installments on an 8 string 36fret Conklin (recently seen on **** i think) that should compliment my new amp nicely, all in all, im overwhelmed by the amp, and the new conklin is going to be put to good use in my next recording project, in which i hope to cover all kinda of world styles, mixed with a shreddy vibe, and industrial techno grooves, clips will be posted pretty soon for all you critics out there!
lastly i sold ALL my pedals and effect racks, replaced all the racks with an
eventide Eclipse, couldnt be more pleased, replaced all my pedals with a simple gain only setup from robert keely, the DS1 utra mod, the MT2-TW and the keely compressor. im also using a boss super shifter pedal that ive modified instead of the old red whammy digitech i used to have.
So, having shifted a good 2 dozen pedal units, 5 odd rack units, and amp head, 3 jems, a universe, and all sorts of other crap, im now left with what so far, is my ultimate tonal setup. Guitar, 4 pedals on the ground, amp, 1 rack in the 2 seperate switchable FX-loops (it has 2 inpupts, 2 outputs and can do 2 completely different patches at the same time both in stereo! *genius*) And its basically made me believe that a few well chosen decent items is the best setup i could ever want.
so yeah, im a happy man, and, im done expressing how happy i am. lol, oh and, my advice is: try a roadking, its great
