Okay, I searched to see if there was a similar thread, and I didn't see one so here goes:

List your setup/gear (axe(s), amp, pedals/processors, cabinets, ect.) as it stands at the moment. Feel free to list any changes you plan to make too. Pics of YOUR SETUP (no stock photos or web images, please) would be nice.

My setup is (I'm pretty poor, so it's not much)

-1 Squier Affinity Strat (red), 1 Ibanez acoustic/electric (black, the model that's around $400)
-2 Marshall MG15 CD amps, piggybacked

That's it, as it stands. I plan on adding ye olde Boss DX-1 dist. pedal, a Dunlop Crybaby Q Wah, a compressor of some sort (suggestions?), volume pedal, Boss EQ, and a Korg multi-effects unit. Also looking for a good used stack.

I play a Rickenbacker 360 in Fireglow (a damned gorgeous guitar) through a fender hot rod deville 410. This is a great working man's tube amp, and in my opinion, comprable to the Twin. For distortion I use a Vox valvetone. I get really sweet cleans and dirty overdrive, especially when I knock the clean channel above 6 or 7. It's got a great break-up and the dials go to 12. This sucker is LOUD.

What a shame . I only wish that they could combine the tone of the LP with the play of a Strat.

Hohner copy of a Steinberger, ART SGX 2000 Express (effects prosessor), Fender Champ 12 amplifier with Groove Tubes to replace the Fender tubes. Makes the distortion a little more "distort-y".

Also a Goya acoustic that doesn't plug into anything. The strings are steel with nylon core on the four wrapped strings.

It's like someone took every wet dream possible and manifested them into a guitar. It's not the standard humbucker with floyd rose setup that they have now. It's a red mahogany hard tail with SP-90 soapbars and my god does it play.

looks like we use similar gear (see my post above)

what sort of stuff do you play? I'm guessin blues, but with that effects board and a guitar like that you could do pretty much anything

slowpoke

i play a squier strat, japan make presumably from the 80s. it's got a maple fretboard and the 70s headstock. i've had for 4-5 years now and just now got all new electronics in it. i went a set of fender vintage noiseless pickups, haven't had much time (just got it back) but they seem sweet.

i play out of a fender dual showman into a 2x12 cab

the pedals i've been using lately have been a boss mt-2 (metal zone) distortion and an ibanez fl9 (i think, 80s yellow) flanger.

i've got a bunch more toys (like basses, mmmmmmmmmm) but that's pretty much my guitar rig.

i plan on getting a tube screamer reissue (ts808) as well as a handful of electro harmonix effects, but that's far off in the distance as i'm in the market for a 5 string bass right now (i'm leaning heavy towards warwick, but i haven't gotten to try out enough yet).

jakewesier

Blues is a big part of what I do yes. I'm a Jazz player mostly. My fav sounds aren't the typical swinging old big archtop players and more lean towards more modern tones (Scofield, Abercrombie so on)

But I grew up playing the Blues and Classic Rock. I'm into every kind of music as I teach privately around 50 students a week. So I have to be able to produce whatever sounds are needed from individual to individual ranging from kids music to emo to Thrash. (Although the strings I used don't let me thrash to much lol)

Kind of like the man's music, lol??? Gotta go check that one out sometime. Does anybody here but me play DR electric strings??? I use those for electric, Martin SP+ Mediums for acoustic, and D'addario strings for bass.

VFN, stonegrody. By the way, and this goes out to everyone, I'm looking for reccomendations on what kind of loop station I should get. College student, so best bang for the buck. Thanks

Right now:

Jackson DX6 (EMG 81 / 85 set)
Dunlop 535Q wah
Nobels ODR-1 overdrive
Washburn FX:4 flanger
Laney GH100L head
Marshall 1960A cab

Love that amp. Paid $300 for it, and it kicks the pants off Marshall's current line. Think JCM 800, with loads more gain.

I've got a whole pile of other boxes I use from time to time. My collection is as follows:
-Boss FZ-2 Hyper Fuzz
-Boss PS-2 Pitch Shifter/Delay
-Boss RCE-10 Digital Chorus Ensemble (rackmount)
-Danelectro Fab Tone
-DOD 250 Overdrive reissue
-DOD FX40B Graphic EQ
-DOD FX68 Super Stereo Chorus

-Ibanez MS10 Metal Charger
-ISP Decimator Noise Reduction
-MXR Commande Stereo Flanger

I'm just starting out:

- 1 Yamaha steel string accoustic (don't know the model)

- 1 Squier Affinity FAT strat (2 single , 1 humbucker - i love the humbucker) Black with white pick guard

- 1 squier 15 amp amp, with vintage cord.

Thanks, Draconis. The next Stompbox I want to add is a Loop Station. I was thinking either the Line6 DL-4 or the Boss RC20XL Loop Station and spec wise, the Boss seems like it's the way to go. The DL-4 runs about $249 and the Boss goes for $295. I don't know of any cheaper ones that are comparable. I've seen both used in live scenarios and they both sounded great. The Boss allows up to 16 minutes of sampling which is pretty impressive. It'll be a while before I pick one up but I'll let you know what I think when I do.

This new pedal from Line 6 might be worth a demo. It seems to have a lot of great effects. If it sounds anything like the DL-4 which it's based on, it would be worth a try.

I'm liking that Echo Park, stonegrody. Thanks for pointing that one out. I think I've settled on the Boss. I'll let you know how I like it after I get it this winter (fingers crossed).
