If you could have only 1 amp, 3 guitars, and 6 pedals...

[Everlone]

Bill inspired me to start a thread after reading a question he asked Thump in his rig pics thread.

Granted this could all change tomorrow, but what would your dream rig/desert island rig/one rig for the rest of your life consist of limited by the parameters in the title?

This would be mine:
Amp: Marshall JVM410 and Avatar Contemporary 2x12 cab with V30's
Guitars: Gibson Les Paul Custom, Fender '72 Tele Deluxe, Larrivee D-03E
Pedals: Boss TU-2, ISP Decimator, Line 6 MM4 (Keeley Modded), OCD ver.4, Digitech EX-7, Boss CE-2 w/ Bodenhamer mod

What if you could only have one guitar and nothing else? For me I would stick with the Martin D-18 but it would have to have 40 plus years on it.

 

[D-Rock]

I would actually prefer two amps, two guitars, and two pedals.

midi pedal
2290 delay

Current rig would work pretty well -
JCM800/2204
Les Paul Classic, Anderson Drop Top, Jackson Kelly (bolt on)
Tu-2, Plank Cranker, Phase 90, DD-6, Wah, Pod XT

The only things I would change would be an R8 (or R0) instead of the Classic, and a maple neck strat instead of the Jackson, although I've had that guitar for 15 years! Since the amp has an effects loop, I'd run the Pod into the return for a clean tone (sorta A/B style).

 

[Scott Ians Beard]

Amp: JCM800
Guitars: Gibson Explorer, Strat and Suhr Reb Beach Koa model
Pedals: Strobostomp, Vox Wah (works for me!), Modded SD-1, Delay

I dont think id need 6 pedals! Very hard to pic one amp, had to choose the one ive kept the longest. THD is in second place...

 

[K-Bizzle]

MOD50 w/ every module you can think of w/Uberkab
ESP Viper, Taylor Acoustic, Nashville Tele
TS-808, Wah, My rack units instead of pedals.

 

[realbeeker]

amp- jcm 800
guitar- gibson flying v, american strat, les paul studio
pedals- boss- od-1, hm2(for sounding like entombed)
that would cover most of my sounds. i am a pretty basic kind of guy.

 

[mrp5150]

Amp: Peavey 5150 & Bogner 412 w/V30's
Guitars: Gibson Explorer, Caparison TAT II, Charvel Strathead
Pedals: Chaos Modded Maxon OD808, ISP Decimator, Boss RV-3, Modded Vox V847 Wah, Boss CH-1, a looper pedal that actually works well with high gain

 

[blackba]

Amp: Mesa mark IV (or mark V if it gets released ) into Mesa 412 metal grill halfback cab
Guitars: Gibson Les Paul Custom, Fender MIA deluxe strat, Rickenbacker 360
Effects: Korg DT-10 tuner, Maxon AD-80 delay, Jacques Meistersinger Chorus, Vox Clyde McCoy Wah, Maxon OD-808 (for boosting R2), and Plank Cranker.

Only thing I don't own is a the rickenbacker and I only have a standard MIA strat, not a deluxe version....

 

[Code001]

Amp: Mark IV w/ Mesa Trad. 4x12 or Bogner 4x12
Guitars: Ibanez RG7, Fender Strat., Gibson LP Custom
Pedals/Effects: Peterson Strobostomp, Custom-built Chaos Overdrive, Axe-FX (that can count as the rest of the pedals. )

 

[vultures]

Amp: Mark IV w/ Mesa 2x12
Guitars: Charvel 750xl, Ibanez RG7CT VV, Ibanez Pro-Line 1770SP
Pedals: (I dont use any)

It would have to be my Larrivee. It rivals my LP as my fav guitar, and on most days it beats it.

[ttosh]

Cornford MK50H with 2 Bogner 4X12s for W/D
Orignal San Dimas Charvel, Vintage Strat, Les Paul
No pedals just one Eventide Eclipse for effects

Yep that pretty much does it for me.

 

[Les Zombie]

AMP- diezel herbert with a bogner uberkab
overall i can get lots of tones out of it and thats important to me, i like the gain ch of my engl se and vht ul better metal but i like the herberts lower gain and cleans better and the herbert can still get me metal tones im happy with that arent far behind my other 2 amps imo.

pedals- decimator, maxon od-9, boss ce-5
those are really the only pedals i would ever need.

guitars- ken lawrence explorer, gibson 59 reissue les paul, esp kh-20.
