What's your rig? - Master Thread


david to the fifth power

Recommended Posts

from here on out, no more "post your rig", "what's your rig", "what are you running" threads.

i know i've started my fair share, but this is going to be it.

anyways, post your rig in here and as you continue to build it up, feel free to update us on it.

this doesn't mean you can't start a new thread if you get a new guitar or amp, this is just to stop the addition of new rig threads.

also, pics of your rig are encouraged.

as of now i have my Gibson Les Paul Classic, Gibson Explorer, and Jackson Soloist going to my chromatic tuner > mxr phase 90 > Visual Sound H2O chorus and echo > digitech turbo flange > boss acoustic simulator >boss noise suppressor, to my peavey Valve King half stack

jon, what is the cheapest amp you could suggest that would be good for playing shows with?

yeah to be honest you dont need a half stack to play shows. i dont know much about diff amps. david would though since he's at guitar center. but i do love my valve king.

I have an Epiphone les paul that I sort of pimped out. I installed, gibson drity fingers for my bridge pickup, A semour duncan Invador Sh-10 for the Neck. Also I got them on 1000K pots, and got some Nickel plated 1969, grover tunners. Guitar looks and sounds awesome. I'll take a Picture tomorrow when I'm back home.

I have a Mesa Trip Rec head and a small Marshall cab. I think its called Marshall MG412. I have the Marshall head that goes with it but it overheated and stopped working. So I upgraded to the Mesa head. I'm buying the Rectifier cabinet probably next weekend. I'd also like to run it with an Orange 2x12. I don't have any pedals yet, but I'm probably going to go with the digitech chorus, delay, and flange. Maybe a tremolo pedal also.

My guitars are a Gibson SG teal flip paint, with the bridge humbucker switched out to a Dirty Fingers. A Tom D. surf green strat with a black pickguard, black jack plate, and black neck plate. And my new favorite, a red Tele Esquire GT. Only thing i dont like is the neck thru design. It has a painted neck and I prefer a satin finish on them.

I'm going to customize the Tom D. strat shortly. I'm gonna get it sent out and get it painted lake placid blue with satin black competition stripes.

If anyone wants pics of anything, let me know. I'll take some fresh ones.

I'm on the lookout for a Gibson Marauder as well. I want to customize one so bad. I have a thing for racing stripes so I might respray the Marauder black with orange racing stripes.

I have the 99.99$ Fender Squier Bullet. I just replaced the pick ups today with a Dimarzio X2N and I'm so happy! It sounds awsome. It's the pick up Tom used to use for Dude Ranch and I think Cheshire Cat. I like it better than the Seymore Duncan Invader off Enema personally. The guitar is yellow with a black pick guard. I have a really sucky Digitech RP50 and a really sucky Line 6 Spider III 75. All in all it doesn't sound too great but I like it enough for now, at least better than what I started with.

Thanks for the comments. It actually came that color. I got it back in 2003 new. I believe they also came in a wine red, ebony, and platinum. I paid something like $1100. I don't quite remember. I'm about to Tom D. it though. The neck pickup is giving me problems. So I'm probably going to order a custom pickguard with just the bridge pickup.

I'm also sending my Tom D. strat out to get painted later this week. Lake placid blue with satin black racing stripes. Can't wait lol.
