JEEZ Armitage! What an arsenal! I bookmarked your site for when I have a couple hours to check out all that stuff! Nice write ups too.

My collection is in my sig. Items currently on the G.A.S. list include the new Carvin CT6M carved top with tune-o-matic bridge and a Carvin 5-string bass so I won't have to tune my 4-string bass down every time I want to record with the UV. I also have some recording gear which is due for an update with the now more affordable digital 24-tracks out there with self CD-burning ability. :D

Dude, I would love for you or any of the Rack experts here ( there are many) to start a primer thread about rack gear and how all these things interact together.. Midi controllers and patch bays-all new territory for me and I'm sure others..

Hey man,
That is such an open ended thread to start up, there are so many variables, options & so much equipment to choose from it makes you mind literally numb. I built mine through trial & error & have made some costly mistakes.

I would honestly think it best if anyone who wants to know something to post questions or concerns out that they would like to find out about & then they can be answered accordingly. It would be far better than having one long winded post & you'll be able to get more opinions on things as well which is always a good thing. You'll also be able to keep the material more specific to a certain topic which can always be referenced later.

I'm no expert mind you, my main rig is a project in progress & man I'm telling you that I'm seriously not looking forward to trouble shooting this thing for ground loops (hum) & programming it with all the continuous control, control change & program change commands. I'll almost certainly be calling in for help from some of my more knowledgeable friends. But the end result will be amazing sounding & unbelievably adaptable, versatile rig that I will be able to use for absolutely any situation I choose to put it in, be it live with mic'd cabs, live direct to pa, recording with mic'd cabs or recording direct to console.

In the pipeline are a custom power supply to eliminate all wall warts from the rack, an Axess RX-1 switcher, an Eventide Eclipse, and another Mesa/Boogie preamp (recto pre or v-twin rackmount) or another Marshall JMP-1 (so I can get that Marshall more spongy & open tone to contrast with the very tight & focused Boogie Triaxis).

To twist 'round a famous line from Yoda: "Once down the rack path you go, forever will it dominate your destiny" :rolleyes: Yeah yeah I know it's lame but I couldn't help myself.

Catch ya's later.........Joe :)

Wow, lots of nice gear in here! Some of your collections are simply massive :D

Here's my 7 string and part of my rig. The guitar is a custom built RG style mohogany body, 1 piece neck-through. 1/4" flamed AAA maple top, Floyd Rose trem, Seymour Duncan SH1B SH1N pickups. Gaboon ebony fingerboard with custom inlays, and a custom designed headstock (with ebony inlay). Amp is a 2002 Soldano SLO-100 mated to an angled Soldano 4x12.

Man, that is an awesome looking guitar. Did you build it yourself?

How do you like the Soldano amp? The only time I've ever heard one live was back in 1998 when a techno-rock band opened for Dream Theater. The guitarist's tone was enough for me to put the ear plugs in, unfortunately, but other times I've heard guitarists rave about Soldanos.

Thanks! Actually I had a business aquaintance in Peru build it for me. He specializes in building custom electric and classical guitars. Pics of the assembly (and more specs on the gutiar) are here: http://www.andrapos.com/Custom

I love the sound of the Soldano. I tried out a Marshall DSL and a Mesa Dual Rectifier side-by-side to the SLO-100 (both were 100w and running through their matched cabs - I bought the Soldano cab separate), and in my opinion neither of the other two could touch this amp. The Mesa sounded very brittle and cold, and the Marshall was buzzing like a hive of bees. Of course, that's just my opinion!

You can find a list of guitarists who have used Soldano on http://www.soldano.com - the list is pretty impressive!

After I purchased the head, I tested and adjusted the bias. That made an even bigger difference in the tone. If you listen to the Van Halen F.U.C.K. album, Eddie uses the SLO-100. All the clips I have recorded are a bit dark sounding, I need to get my recording technique down!

Final note - this amp has a CLEAN clean, and when it comes to the gain, the more you turn it up, the more it gives you (I guess that's why it goes to 11 - it's one louder!)

nice shot!

i've kinda been wanting to get a strat, what with my heavy metal guitars, i don't have anything i can dedicate to twangy blues :p

but, i want to find one with a hardtail. i always see them with trems, but since i wouldn't be using the trem anyways, i'd rather just have a guitar without all that routing.
