Hi guys!!

I thought we'd do a less controversial topic this time around...

I'd like to hear about your favorite rig setup

ie:

What guitar you use, amps, effects..in what order do you like up your effects/pedals...

I think we can learn from each other on this one!!!

A UV7BK/RG2027/Jem7BSB/s540/BCRich USA Warlock

through

vox wah -> gt-5 ->(BOSS FX SEND) -> Korg DTR1 -> Mesa Triaxis ->(MESA FX SEND) -> (BOSS FX RETURN) -> Boss gt-5 -> (BOSS L + R OUTPUT) -> (MESA L + R FX RETURN) -> (L+R RIVERA FX RETURN) Rivera TBR-1 (Basically TBR1 used as Power amp)

Somewhere in there the gt-5 is going to get removed, and the rig will just be a rack with a rocktron Hush Super-C somewhere in it once I've finishhed making cables.

Oh, and this goes through two 4x12's , both marshalls with one having greenbacks (old ones, originals!) and one having gt-75's

Sounds allright to me I guess ;)

I'm currently thinkin' about getting a Washburn N2, I miss it SOOO... :( (used to have one) Now I have a N2. Had to let my FP go, somehow i didn't "connect" to it.

RG7421-Custom pickguard, single blaze bridge, on/off switch
RG421- Still mostly stock. Tone removed.
RG421- All pimped. Locking tuners. Solid Gotoh bridge, graphtech saddles and nut. EMG 85. On/off switch.

Into GT-3 ( soon to be replaced by GT-6)

Run stereo into 2 Peavey Reno 400 Acoustic/Electric amps.
(If you've seen these bad larrys they arent small amps and they pack quite a punch. They are full range so I get a great low end. Only thing that sucks is the horns give me VERY nasally treble.... :)

Hi I tried finding your email address but it wasn't posted. Im going to try an Avatar was a Vintage 30 and a G12 and I wanted to know how you liked it? Some told me they wish they had only G12's. Do you find it better to have that vintage 30 there? email if you'd like so we can stay off this topic. Ibyrgdude@hotmail.com

Well, this is comparably pretty short, but...

Me.

\/

RG-7620 w/. AN/TZ pickups
RG-2027 w/. TZ/EVO pickups (will be posting a "for sale" for this momentarily, though)
USA Strd. Strat, w/. gold lace sensors and graphite everything, really.

\/

Sometimes it gets interrupted en route to the amp by a Dunlop Crybaby. Sometimes not.

\/

Mesa Boogie Rocket-44 combo.
(For direct recording, Johnson J-Station.)

\/

You.

-Drew ;)

Here's my simple setup.

Guitars:
Ibanez UV777GR (w/ Evo7 bridge and Blaze bridge on neck)
Ibanez RG760 (w/ Evolution bridge and FastTrack1 on neck)

\/
Effects:
Boss GT-3, also used to record PC recordings

\/
Amps: (in 6spc rack)
Mesa Boogie Studio Preamp
Mesa Boogie 50/50 Poweramp
(2) Carvin 400W 4x12 both in stereo.

Eventually, a G-major and a BBE would be somewhere in the setup.
