Johnny Bitch Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 I don't play alot of live gigs, but I do alot of studio work, so I have several setups for my guitars. Setup used: Chandler Tube Driver into a Marshall Tube Screamer into a Fender Blues Rackmount SansAmp straight into PT What setups do you guys use and do you vary one setup OR do you have different setups?

Guitarzan Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 one set up for me presently. musical thoughts leave my brain and head to my fingers ( sometimes getting lost on the way) from my fingers they travel through a dava or dunlop pick into the DR(preferably) strings which are mounted on my Godin LGsp90. from there they cruise my planet waves cable to my DG100 amp where they are turned into 1's and 0's and make me sound just like..me. note the DG100 amplifies them into REALLY BIG 1's and 0's. and i happen to think they are some of the sweetest sounding 1's and 0's! http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=193274 rock it, i will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Strat Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 I usualy use this rig: Squier Strat w/ Seymour Duncan JB jr. or Scorcher bridge pickup Conquest 10' cable homebuilt Marshall JCM-800 2204 (50W) variation. My preamp is setup like a cross between the JCM-800 and a Mesa Dual Rectifier. The output section is like a blackface Bassman. Pedals are usualy not used, but when I do use them I use the following: 1) DOD Mystic Blues OD 2) homebuilt Fuzz Face variations 3) EH Big Muff Pi 4) Tronix DS-710 distortion 5) DOD Death Metal distortion 6) Rocktek CHR-01 Chorus 7) homebuilt Tremolo 8) homebuilt Crunch Box distortion 9) Radio Shack/Realistic Electronic Reverb (echo) 10) modified Dunlop Crybaby GCB-95 BlueStrat a.k.a. "El Guapo" ...Better fuzz through science... http://geocities.com/teleman28056/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revolead Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 Originally posted by WOW: Setup used: Chandler Tube Driver into a Marshall Tube Screamer into a Fender Blues Now that's the way a good rig should be. A couple pedals into a quality amp. I'm ashamed to admit I've got eight pedals, running six at a time into a SS amp. It sounds pretty good, but I still need a tube amp. Shut up and play.

I could be wrong, but...I have used a fuzz and the Big Muff Pi together. Can you say "Billy Corgan"? Sure! I knew you could. I hardly ever use more than four pedals at once; an OD/distortion > chorus > echo > tremolo. That's the most I'd use in one chain. BlueStrat a.k.a.

mstreck Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 Fender Fat Strat with SD replacement pickups (Screamin' Demon - bridge, Quarter Pound Flat - middle, Vintage Rails - neck) Digitech GNX3 (you name it, it's got it - well, almost) Tech 21 Power Engine 60 amplifier fed to the PA (Mackie 808S to JBL mains and Ross Cabs) Can ya hear me now? Mike Petting Hendrix Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked in the head by an iron boot? Of course you don't--no one does--that never happens.

Dave da Dude Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 Now that's the way a good rig should be. A couple pedals into a quality amp. I'm ashamed to admit I've got eight pedals, running six at a time into a SS amp. It sounds pretty good, but I still need a tube amp. Yeah, that's right. You need a tube amp. I held out as long as I could, but once I had one, even a not-so-perfect one (and "only" $350. Let's see, at $50 per pedal, that would be $400 you've spent on pedals), there was no looking back. You need to do it. You will never regret it! I have to admit that I have too many pedals too, but I just use them to "play 'round". I've got BOSS EQ-7, DOD FX-55C Supra (major Distortion), DOD Delay and a Dunlop Cry-Baby 535Q. Not counting the Cry-Baby (I paid full street price before I realized that what I needed was a tube amp) I paid a grand total of $45 for the other three pedals on ebay (including S & H). I'm in the middle of a year long project to build an Orange Squeeze compresion pedal. Sighhhhh .... Whenever I play seriously (ha, ha ), I use none or just the Cry-Baby. Dave Gotta' geetar... got the amp. There must be SOMEthing else I... "need". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
