A tweaked Epiphone "Les Paul" type will sound good, if you're willing to drop the dough, go full out Gibson Studio. You also may want to look into self modification of a less good guitar. You can get great crunch and gain from a DYI active pickup system in an existing body. As far amps go, I reccomend the Roland Chorus, with a tone-bone distortion pedal and boss-gigadelay. Also, a Clone chorus would be good but the Roland built-in on that amp is really good. For good variety in tone, go with a mid-level Line 6.
