What is your Dream Set-Up?

OwlsHaveEyes · 03-03-2008, 07:59 AM

Everyone on here has a killer rig with a killer guitar, but is that really enough? Post your dream guitar and rig on here.

My dream set-up is a custom ESP 7-string with a Crate Blue Voodoo Half Stack.

Matt Crooks · 03-03-2008, 08:07 AM

Jackson custom shop Rhoads, Mesa Road King full stack.

God Hand Apostle · 03-03-2008, 08:14 AM

Bill Delap > Soldano SLO

Toshiro · 03-03-2008, 08:16 AM

Custom shop Xiphos, Larry Dino 939 and a Soldano SLO.

Michael · 03-03-2008, 08:36 AM

I have my dream guitar. Not sure what my dream rig would be, since I've played hardly any of the amps out there. But I

my MP-1 and have for almost two years now.

I've always fantisised about having a Dual Rectifier though.

MF_Kitten · 03-03-2008, 09:57 AM

some sort of baritone instrument, probably a 30" 8 string with Walnut body, a wenge/maple/walnut neck and a maple fretboard (like the one on the Loomis, the yellowish-tan look), tuned to drop E, into a preamp, perhaps an Engl preamp, then into a TC electronics unit for effects, and then into a mesa boogie stereo power amp, and into a stereo cabinet... or two separate cabs... not sure what the cabs would be...

kristallin · 03-03-2008, 11:47 AM

J-Custom and Caparison 7-strings through an ENGL Powerball, with Roland guitar-to-MIDI electronics and some Clavia rackmount synths.

zimbloth · 03-03-2008, 11:52 AM

I'm there with my rig, I just crave more custom shop guitars and a Parker 7 string

kmanick · 03-03-2008, 12:14 PM

I like my current rig enough, but a dream rig would probably be a Jackson Custon Shop 7 string SL2H soloist and a rig that lets me swith back and forth between an Engle SE and a Roadster 1/2 stacks. Those 2 should cover most tones I'd be after.

Shawn · 03-03-2008, 12:32 PM

I'd love to have a Carvin 7 and maybe a decent head, maybe a Mesa Triple Rec.

djpharoah · 03-03-2008, 01:24 PM

Guitar Wise : Probably one of those sexy baritone 7 Mike Shermans

Aled Smith · 03-03-2008, 01:26 PM

Dean custom shop, with an Engl rack running through a madison omen head. a set of Vader cabs loaded with Celestion G12 centuries. and a bunch of Electroharmonix pedals

AARRGGHHH · 03-03-2008, 01:37 PM

Ummm, really happy with where my rig is now. My "dream rig of the gods" would be a midi programmable version of my head (or maybe setup as a couple of rack units) running with a top notch digital wireless unit, a rack wah and something along the lines of a G-Major. That would be sweet!

Stitch · 03-03-2008, 01:40 PM

Ibanez LACS into a Dual Racktifier is all I will ever want.

I really want a decent recording rig and the knowledge to use one.

JesseTheMachine · 03-03-2008, 01:54 PM

I'd love to have a Bogner Uberschall

running in stereo with a high-end Marshall

or a Mesa Stiletto

through one or two of these babies

Edit: and let's say one of these for shits and giggles - a blood bound BC Rich Warbeast

metalfiend666 · 03-03-2008, 03:31 PM

A couple of nice custom 7 strings, a Mesa 3ch Dual Rectifier into my weird Trace Elliot 3x12 and a THD Bi-Valve into it's matching 2x12. If you've never played a Bi-Valve, try one. They're amzingly savage little beasties for a 30W tube amp.

Xtremevillan · 03-03-2008, 03:54 PM

Customized guitar/Caparison -> ENGL Invader 100+some 4x12.

Anthony · 03-03-2008, 03:58 PM

Caparison TAT7 Frozen Sky -> A wall of MKIV's

Psychoface · 03-03-2008, 04:04 PM

Custom shop 7 (prolly either: ESP, KxK, or jackson) -->
run through some effects -->
into a Compressor/sustain -->
Full Stack, most prolly Mesa, but if not (Peavey, Randell, or ENGL would do very well)

Plus on reserve i would like:
ESP MH-400
Jackson King V 7 (custom)
Modded Ibanez RG7321
and then that custom shop mentioned earlier

That would keep me pretty fuckin happy

Battousai · 03-03-2008, 04:13 PM

my Dream Guitar would be an ESP Horizon Custom Seven baritone scale with quilted maple top in transparent purple ( purple FTW)

my Dream Rig would be an ENGL Invader with a Marshall 1960 cab or an orange cab... G major Effects in the Loop

also one of these in the chain

Hcash · 03-03-2008, 04:29 PM

Guitars:

Three custom Mike Shermans, with the same specs except one with six strings, one with seven strings, and another with nine.

Digitech 2112
ISP decimator Pro Rack G

Hexer · 03-03-2008, 04:45 PM

well I DO know my DREAM rig would include a few strong, intelligent guys to carry it all and set it up each time without fucking anything up!

Drew · 03-03-2008, 04:50 PM

I'm actually pretty happy with my existing rig, but I'd kind of like to swap the Rectoverb for a Roadster, and grab this as a seven:

adz87 · 03-03-2008, 04:51 PM

Guitar wise i'd have a few custom ibanez's, 6 and 7 petrucci MM family reserve, parker 6 and 7.

amp wise i'd have 3 orange thunderverb 50 heads. one for clean the other for the dirty version of the clean channel, and the 3rd for channel B, which by the way sounds fucking awesome!. then they'd go through 2 4x12's and 2 2x12's or 4 4x12's.

rack wise. i wouldn't get much just a switching unit and everything in draws wired up.

it'll be awesome!
