show me the amps, you play your balls with

[TheStoner]

Thanks for the comments Stoner!

So which amp is your main one??? the one that you take to gigs?? the one that you would keep if you had to sell all others and why???

It changes all the time. I'll normally use one for a while, then get bored of it and switch to another - they're all good. Last gig I used the Marshall 6100LM and it sounded great, but a few weeks back it was the Dual Recto and earlier this year I was swearing by the 5150 (with a BBE sonic maximiser in the loop). I just like to have the choice, and I always take a backup to gigs in case my main amp goes down so before each gig I have to choose two from five. However when they are all stacked up in my musicroom I sometimes just take the two off the top for convenience sake, regardless of what they are!

Here is this week's pedalboard setup which goes into a Tech 21 Power Engine. Plenty loud for any NYC club. It's funny because when I moved to NY, I came with a 14 space rack (FULL) and two 2x12 cabinets. I learned fast. If I can't fit it in the back of a taxi, it ain't leavin' the house.

I had the 2:90, but I like my back in one piece so I sold it. Plus it was simply to0 much power for what I do. The 20/20 has been more than enough so far.

I remember trying out the 20/20's when they first came out. Those little things have some serious kick!

marillion freak is that the first time you have posted a pic of your Y2D? It's very nice can you post better pics?

 

[mcvinyl]

Word to the wise, trim the claws on your hAiR-BaLL before plugging in any cables. Trust me on this one

Just wondering how you go plugging into that input jack?

Alright guys and girls here's my newish guitar rig, the preamp l got on Thursday (which l bought directly from Bob Bradshaw, a great amp designer/builder, and also one of the coolest cats ever), I use the g-major for channel switching and whatnot, l'm using the 5150 power amp atm until l update to a new power amp, and still have to get a new Midi controller.

Anyway enjoy.

Scott.

Oh for sure man, l cant wait to crank it next Wednesday night at band practise, it sounds awesome at bedroom volumes, so cant wait to crank it, it will sound even better.

Im so happy that l bought it, it cost a fair bit, but it was worth every cent.

Sweet combo if I do say so myself

Here's mine:

I love this setup. The head is a Soldano 50W Avenger ( basically a Hot Rod 50 with no loop and a depth knob added). Having no loop really increases the dynamics if the amp. True tone machine for sure. For me anyways. The cab is loaded with Greenbacks.

Cheers.

Nice Scott, how did you go with the voltage difference?

 

[slukather]

It's set up for any voltage, you just have to change around a plug and put a new fuse, but Bob did that for me.

[Pablo]

Wow - there are some really nice rigs out there!!!

Though I'm Ball-less at the moment (still counting my pennies on a JP-7), I'll share my rather simple setup. The amp is a Diezel VH-4s and the cab is a Lee Jackson with custom Eminences. Not pictured is my Engl Z-12 midi board. At home I use a Behringer V-Amp 2 through my stereo.

Cheers

Simon, was reluctant to post pics of his amp. So being the good friend I am, I'd thought I'd go and do it for him. (anything for a friend)
