CultExciter Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I couldn't find a thread like this, but it may exist. For those of us that are also musicians, it is always funs to geek out on gear that you have and gear that you want. Kind of like when we geek out on the tattoos we have or are wanting to get. My set up Guitars: Gibson Les Paul Standard, American Standard Telecaster Effects (in chain order): Boss TU-3 --> Fulltone OCD --> Boss DD-7 --> EHX Holy Grail Reverb Amp: Marshall JCM900 4100 Cabinet: Orange 2x12 with Warehouse Speakers Veteran 30s Pretty simple and straight forward. I don't like too much mucking up my signal, but I need some delay and reverb for volume swells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStu Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 My main set-up: Custom (home assembled) telecaster hollowbody with PRS pickups direct into a Fender Blues Deluxe. Nice and clean. CultExciter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CultExciter Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 Man, I love those Classic 30s. I've had a slew of Peavey's in my day. The last one I had bought was a Peavey Deuce. That mother was heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Androosh Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 My wife gave me her old Peavey. She used it in her band all throughout the late 90s. I don't play it nearly as much as I should. She also gave me her early '90s Japanese Strat that has a weird Floyd Rose-style bridge and a graphite nut. It is crazy awesome. I love that woman. The best amp I ever had was a Sovtek Mig 60 that I painted bright red. That amp could drop a man at 20 paces. It would shit all over every Marshall/Laney/Bogner/Fender it was up against. eisen777 and CultExciter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGblues Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 An '07 Gibson SG Special, an '08 Gibson SG Classic (P-90s) plugged straight into an Egnater Tweaker 15W head and an old Epiphphone 1x12 cabinet. All I need to piss off all my neighbors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I currently have the least amount of musical gear I've had in a long time. been selling it all off to pay the bills. here's what's left: Gibson Custom Shop '57 Les Paul Jr MIJ Fender Telecaster that's heavily modded. that guitar through the 67 bassman I just sold was twang heaven. Fender American Vintage '57 P-Bass 1987 Ampeg "Skunkworks" SVT Classic head. #49 out of 500. And still too many pedals...

slayer9019 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Sadly I thought this was a music gear thread for music listening not creation. I can't play for shit so I make sure I got some great gear to listen to music! CultExciter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abees Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 before i sold almost all of it, i had some nice fuzz pedals - D*A*M Meathead, Creepy Fingers Creepy Face, Shin-E Companion fy-2, Foxx Tonemachine, Sovtek/EHX Russian Big Muff, and some others. I had a Matamp Minimat which i really regret selling. An oldish Orange 30watt valve combo (which i got after i sold the Minimat). A Les Paul Black Beauty. An Ovation Ultra GP copy. An Ampeg Dan Armstrong (the wood one, rather than the clear one). And... some other stuff.. now all i have is a P-Bass, an old Laney bass head & a cab.

cfgsteak Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I've downsized and sold most of my gear. I'm down to a Faded Gibson LP Studio, through a little Vox AC4tv and various pedals. Actually looking for a good fuzzy fuzz pedal. And I have a Simon and Patrick acoustic. I dont play as much anymore... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cork Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 You people and your guitars, I'm more of a background kind of guy. ddrum Diablo 5 peice with some crappy Sabian B8 cymbals.

bongsau Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I was suppossed to become a professional jazz musician, instead I ended up a professional engineer with a gear problem: Guitars: Ricky 360 Les Paul Studio Fender 68 reissue, rewired w/ Burns TriSonics and series switching custom sunburst Squire 51 w/ lipstick pickups '76 Ibanez Rocket Roll flying V Rebuilt/re-wired P-Bass Amps guitar...Fender Super Reverb is my jam w/ a glass of juicy Orange Or-50 bass...70's Peavey 400W superfestival running into a 2x15 ampeg fridge and a 4x12 peavey black widow.

BoMcConaghie Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 61 reissue sg>boss tuner>rat (sometimes but mostly not)>Marshall plexi reissue. simple as possible. I also have a sunn model t and sceptre but they are in retirement for now. p.s. I am jealous of the classic 30. Play through my friends occasionally and the tone is amazing. His is an older 4/10 before they changed the logo. Love that thing. CultExciter, Jake and Androosh 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CultExciter Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 I just sold my 100 watt JCM 900, and picked up one of those 20 watt Blackstar heads. I'm super impressed so far. My dream amp head is a Reeves Custom 30. Maybe one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reverend1 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I have 10 different Reverend guitars. A Reeves Gabrels signature model and my Unknown Hinson model are my go to guitars. As for effects, Carl Martin Plexitone, Mojo Hand Mule, Mad Professor Deep Blue Delay into a 40 watt Blackstar. CultExciter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CultExciter Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'm convinced that a 2x12 is all anyone ever needs for live guitar. Having ran the gamut of combos and full-stacks, I'll sell amp heads all day, but I will never get rid of my Orange 2x12. bongsau 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having ran the gamut of combos and full-stacks, I'll sell amp heads all day, but I will never get rid of my Orange 2x12. 100%. With a 2x12 you can blow the faces off of the audience in clubs, and any larger venues you should be mic'ing your cabs anyway so a 2x12 is more than enough. Any bigger of a rig and you need to be/hire a professional bodybuilder to carry your gear around... Not for me. - - - Updated - - - Also, I really like that this thread exists.

CultExciter Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 I'm still breaking in the EL-34's on the Blackstar HT-20. I am still finding my tone with it, so I am not totally in love with it yet. But, it is just a $500 guitar amp. S, you get what you pay for. Ok...what is your dream rig? If money wasn't an obstacle. I'd probably still keep it simple. Dream Guitars: Wine Red Les Paul Custom G&L Bluesboy Dream Amps: Matamp 1224 Reeves Custom 30 Dream Cabs: Emperor 2x12 Dream Pedal Chain: TC Electronic Tuner (TRUE BYPASS...ugh) MXR DynaComp Electro-Harmonix POG 2 Fulltone Full-Drive WayHuge Swollen Pickle Mk1 Malekko Analog Delay Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Reverb - - - Updated - - - and look at that....600th post.

rozone Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Ok...what is your dream rig? If money wasn't an obstacle. I'd probably still keep it simple. My dream rig would honestly just be a 2nd Princeton and a 2nd Vibro-King 2x12 to be able to run everything stereo and get heady as shit. :) CultExciter and Androosh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
