This is sort of an NGD for all my gear, as I never made a thread for my Mesa/Soldano rig, nor did I make one for my Pod X3 or any of my pedals. So this is my virginity thread G&E-wise. And believe me, it will be a great first time. Only thing you're wondering now must be;

"But Pat_s1t, what did you possibly buy that you felt was right to give your gear thread virginity to?"
Well my friends, I'm not going to tell you outright.

"Is it an amp head?"
Nope.

"A cabinet?"
Colder...

"Some pedals?"
Getting closer...

Try to guess. I'll give you a hint. I got it used, and...
The whole purchase was just $1500.

My guitars, the two ESP/LTDs and an Agile. But what's behind them?

Some dials and buttons! Curious yet?

Know what it is now? You damn well better. But there's still more...

A Carvin DCM150 Power amp! For only a $150 too, with a free 4-space rack. Nice!

Along with my Fractal Audio Axe-Fx Standard, the GAS affliction that has plagued me for months, for $1350 used. And best part is, all this stuff was from a dude just 5 minutes away! You guys may know him as Beardyman.

My new rack, with my Mesa/Boogie Single Rectifier 50w sitting on top.

My relatively humble pedalboard

And the ever so popular angle-up shot

I haven't actually had much time to try the rig out as I have school in the morning and it's 12:30am. However, I'll be playing it extensively tomorrow, hopefully with clips to come!

Cheers dudes

Sell the mesa, sell the pedals, you soon will realise you won't need them :D
Welcome to the AxeFX club buddy! I've never looked back since getting mine, and i'm sure you won't either!

^:lol: Fisch MIOLI stole my sigil!!! :yesway:

I'd be sure to A/B your recto and the Fractal, some people swear they hear a difference, some people swear the Axe-Fx is the end all :shrug: Then decide whether or not to sell it to fund more awesome gear :agreed:

Congrats!

Thanks guys! I can't post clips right now as my camera mic sucks, but as soon as I get my hands on a decent MIDI adapter I'm set to go. Any recommendations on a good one?

The EC is super nice, about as metal as a Les Paul gets. I admittedly play the MH a lot more though, I was GASing one for about year before I bought it.
Hell yeah! The Eclipse II version is my favorite guitar period. That MH also looks nice.
