Your Set Up

Whatever you're using right now.

Ibanez S470DXQM -> Moog MF-101 Ring Modulator + Moog EP-1 Expression Pedal -> Boss BD-2 Blues Driver -> Boss DD-6 Digital Delay -> Boss RC-2 Loop Station -> 120W Peavey Deuce

Godin Exit 22 > BOSS MD-2 Mega Distortion > Epiphone Valve Junior Head > Matching Cab > (Recording with) Microsoft Lifecam > MixPad > WavePad(editing)

epi les paul plus top, vox ad15vt-xl, and the matching footswitch. thts bout it..

gulp lol.

jim deacon les paul copy > vox ad30vt.

do have a zoom effects pedal but a meowing cat would sound better than that hunk of junk lol

sorry to go off topic but with regards to this new joining date thing emb cant have joined after me cos my first post was about what amp to get and emb replied to that lol :/.

Currently: Ibanez GRX40 > Ibanez IBZ10G Amp.

And if anyone cares, I used to use a Live Wire Advantage cable, after the one that came with the amp broke, but the Live Wire crapped out as well. I'm probably going to get a Monster Cable, since I heard that company will give you a new cable for free if the old one breaks.

I going to get a new amp soon, probably Epiphone Valve Jr. Half Stack, when I get the money. After that I'll get some pedals, probably just OD and Wah.

lol, ye i see tht, i was a mem for at least a month or 2 or 3 i think 3 when u joined. mine is right tho thts around when i joined

RR1> Marshall Shred Master> Fender Front Man/Marshall MG15 (The amps both suck... :P)

I'm looking for a real amp...

right now its a Squire Stratocaster through a Fender G-Dec with a bit of Chorus for distortion

Got an Ibannez Iceman> Boss ME-50 and a little tiny amp

Crappy Fender knockoff "Slammer" > MArshall amp...


yeah...

I dig my G-Dec cause it has 50 different channels that you cna manipulate and it has most basic effects, so you cna do anything form a touch wah to just a completely clean channel

guitar (see list below) --> Johnson J-station --> Computer
Fender Strat
Fender Tele
Gibson marauder
Ibanez LP Copy
Sigma Acoustic
Fernandez Bass

Christ, Tele, Got enough guitars? lol

lol i heard johnson j-staitions kick ass.

Hell No!!! I'm actually thinking about getting rid of some and getting something a little nicer. I've been hot for a PRS SE hollowbody for a while now.



yeah it's great and considering how much they cost they rule. I think you can pick one ups on ebay for under $50. I bought it for around $100, I wanted a POD but couldn't afford it. (story of my life) But i hightly recommend a j-station for direct recording.

@Tele,
Sell some to me baha ship them over to Cape Breton xD
And you "might" get your money. JK dude baha

I heard POD's are really good.
Never used 'em though ; /

Guitar
Squier Stratocaster
Hondo Fame Mastercaster
Epiphone LP-100
Epiphone G-310

Amp
Crate PowerBlock
Crate CR-110
Epiphone Valve Junior Combo

Jackson JS30 Randy Rhoads - Digitech RP150 pedal - Lead 12 Marshal amp

Schecter C-1 Classic->Dunlop Crybaby Wah->DigiTech Screamin' Blues->Line 6 Spider III 150 watt.

The pedals aren't really fixed, but that's standard, I guess.

Ibanez JS1200 > modded Dunlop Crybaby > Keeley modded DS1 > Blackstar HT-Distortion > Akai Headrush E2 (looping and delay) > Peavey Classic 30 amp

Effects loop on amp: amp send > Boss CE20 > Carl Martin Red Repeat > amp receive

I am upgrading my amp soon to something much more high gain - any ideas?
Also currently building a guitar.

Afro

cant really call an old LOTUS, quik lock stand and various picks a setup butt thats it for now, shit will change as my skills are built

acoustic guitar

epiphone dot(or others)>fulltone ocd>fender twin

Marshall seems to be the way to go for high gain awesome amps (I'd go tube too). Mesa Boogie Rectifiers seem like they've got a lot of gain as well.

TO




TO

Also, Afro, what do you think of the Robert Keeley mod? Does it really give it a "transparent" tone? I'm considering modding my Blues Driver.

Marshall and Mesa like foogered said, but also I think Blackheart and Bugera are supposed to be good. They might be owned by the same company as well.

Hey guys, Im new here and my setup is:

Epiphone Les Paul Goth
With a Vox AmPlug Metal

My old guitar is a Squier Stratocaster
With a Fender frontman 15R amp

Unh...Skold, that guitar is something to drool for... if i someday got enough money...

I have washburn mercury II
and Jasmine acoustic...

POD + computer for composing (ill use many vst effects like Amplitube 2 & Amplitube Jimi hendrix edition)

epiphone valve junior 1X12" cabinet (for gigging and band training)

It's like $500 - $600, Emp.

Ibanez GSA -> Digitech GRUNGE distrotion -> ZOOM GX1 mulit efffect*
-> Fender Bassmen Ten(modded)

*3 main effects pulled from ZOOM while in use with GRUNGE either a Compressor, Spring Reverb Sim, or Vox Wah**...most often the compressor

**with the distortion before the wah in the effects chain it gets a really awesome attack super sharp WAH. Sounds like a weeping demon WAH on steriods i cal it a screaming demon cause thats what it sounds like no kidding...

dean hardtail & vox ad30vt

nice

that is a sexy fuckin axe I want to finger it all night long

@GRX40
believe it or not blackheart is crate. i have the 15W combo $399
(handsomedevil) on preorder through my local shop. get your hands
on one of them while they are cheap as they won't be for long.


@pusher
i know exactly what you mean as i can never keep my hands off it :)

Let me come over and caress it, just kidding I'ma try to find one soon at a local music store

Really? Damn, everyone hates on Crate, but Blackheart usually gets good feedback. I'm gonna have to try one out! I think I saw one around $200-$300. I'm looking at new tube amps any way.

But in defense of Crate, I tried one of their Palomino Tube Amps. It was pretty good, but it had a little too much gain for my liking.

Crates just sound fake or cheap to me.

the blackheart series is total goodness though. my local shop
can't stand crate but all the local players have been hounding
him to stock the blackhearts. the only problem is the crate rep
want's him to stock the junk also. i still need to wait bout 8 weeks
for my order :( i might breakdown and buy a 5w combo in the meantime.

5w head is $179 combo is $279 the 15w head is $299 & combo is $399
i don't know how much the 1w head/combo is though
