[Luke]

Dean Custom 450's

Zoom GFX-8 effects thingy

Marshall MG30dfx practice amp

I'm getting my Marshall stack later on this year

[shredaholic]

err not very good equip for me at the mo:

Vintage Wraith Metal AXXE

Fender squire strat

Marshall MG30Dfx

Boss MT-2 Metal Zone Pedal

Danelectro T-Bone Distortion Pedal

Pretty basic and simple setup is all i need really, just gonna upgrade to better quality stuff when i get the money together.

[blackorchidx]

are the TSL half stacks good? good price only being £980, i'm tempted on getting one

[Blondie]

I've only tried the TSL100 in a show for 10 min or so, but I thought it sounded GREAT

[blackorchidx]

cheers man, i'll try one out.

[Luke]

The TSL100 was the one i was thinking of getting sounds cool.

[NightWolf]

Any guitar is a good guitar ;D

[blackorchidx]

i had a squire strat, a BC rich warlock but i gave em away to my old school as they were collecting dust, and yeah i own a marshall 30dfx too, use it for practice.

Too true. Squires may not be the best quality, but at least you have an electric guitar. I'm stuck with a cheap acoustic. I plan on getting a flying V guitar as soon as I get enough money. I might have to get a job though *shudder*.

[blackorchidx]

acoustics were great for my playing, made me push down harder on the strings, went back to electric and i never got that silly buzz u get for not pushing hard enough, i got a yngwie signature strat and the light touch technique was awkward, got a jackson soloist and stuck the signature strat on my wall, may be worth somethiing someday.

I have a Manuel Contreras II classical guitar. My Jazz guitar is a Gibson es137. I play an ibenez rg570 for my rock gigs.

As far as tone production I use a fender deville for jazz, and a pod xt for my effects. For my rock shows I dont even use an amp. I run my new line 6 floor board, and my pod xt, both stereo, through the PA. The only effect i guess i really have going is stuff in the pa, and my BBE sonic maximizer.

I use Gibson flatwound 11's for jazz, ernie ball super slinky (9-42) on my ibanez, and d'addario pro art regular tension on my classical.

i use stubby jazz III's for jazz and my shred-like electric playing, i like to use my steve vai ibenez picks for a lot of my rock playing though. Even though they dont offer as CONSISTENT of a tone as the jazz III's, they are more colorful and have much more string scrapping ability than a thicker pick. You trade ease of transversing the string for more control of dynamics and coloring the sound. As for my classical playing, i'm all nail baby! (I'ts really the only way to go!)

[LordJonas]

i currently have a schecter c-1+ a digitech rp300 and an old peavy 1x12...

[blackorchidx]

very nice guitar, fast neck on it

[fast fingers]

im currently using a gibson sg with emgs, marshall jcm800 super lead, and zakk wylde distortion pedal. also have a bc rich warlock special eddition with dimarzio superdist. pickups w/ coil taps and phase inversion. both guitars have scalloped frets. as for my strings, i use 8s from ghs.

[dementedxsmurf]

I have a mexican fender strat
Crate gx900 head
legion sounds 4x12
boss me-50 multiple effects

[blackorchidx]

Yeah thats pretty good setup dude, my first guitar was unbranded and my first amp was a keyboard 30 watt amp.

peace

Blondie would like my gear, as all of it was purchased in the 80's.

I have a starforce 8006 guitar (The company didn't last long) it's a single piece solid body with a H/S/H pickup and a locking trem. I have a Pro Co RAT distortion pedal and a Roland Spirit practice amp.

Not very exciting, but I just dug the thing out lately and tried playing again
