I think the cover should have Zachman's rig on it.

I am making a few changes to the rig this year.

New Kriz Kraft style Rack case:

Replacing Lexicon PCM80 w/ a PCM81
Replacing Rocktron 300G compressor w/ a DBX 160A
Replacing MXR 10 band eq w/ a Vibe/Trem
Adding Dytronics CS5 Tri Stereo Chorus

Yeah, great book.I ordered it back when Scott first mentioned it here.Does a good job of showcasing different gear and explaining how it functions.It is kind of basic, but a handy reference just the same.

I think the cover should have Zachman's rig on it.

Some might argue that Zach's rig would be better placed on the cover of "Monster Rigs from the 80's and 90's".

Not a knock on Zach's rig at all. It's clearly INSANELY good, and I love rack rigs. It's just that, in this day and age, the trend seems to be more toward simplicity than complexity.

I've always followed my own path, rather then follow trends. I guess my thinking for my big rig was-- I didn't want to face obsolescence, again, so built this monstrosity so I could do whatever I wanted, from 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's 90's, 2000 through current day sounds. It'll do whatever I tell it to do, with no compromises.
