Members lndianScout Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 I'm very happy with my rig, I had to sell most of it because the wife needed another surgery, I'd rather have a healthy wife than more equipment, she cooks way too good..

Members Sgt. Funk Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 If I had some new pickups for my Tele and my parts strat, I'd be set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TheAmazingBlob Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 this is why I'm glad I cured my gas with a cheap rig Haha, yeah, I could go on and on about wanting a Mark IV, Cobra, and a Mako, along with a few 4x12s and a custom guitar and :blah:, but the truth is that I'm perfectly happy with an ENGL Blackmore and a 2x12.Not that I don't want the other stuff, but I'm not really gasing much for it.

Members DyeMusica Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 I have been using something a little more stripped down than my usual rig for the last 6 mos or so, and I really like it, I dont think I would change a thing at this point...

Members Gremson Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 I'm starting to think I'm about as good as I can get. The only things I can think to do to improve my rig is to add things. But adding anyhting will increase my signal loss, so it's all a compromise that I haven't decided if I want.

Members RJofGreatness Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 i just want an amp better suited for the metalz! that and im sure im going to want a step up from my current seven eventually, i want a 2X12 because i want a more portable rig while not being a combo, i want a different 4X12 for different speakers for my recto (greenbacks!) the plexi just cuz i want an old school marshall to go with my strat for some different stuff. (at least for me) but i dont plan to sell what i have because i like it a lot and i know i will regret it later, even though i considered it to meet my immediate needs.

Members greg apocalypse Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 I was pretty happy but still wanted some odds and ends... but {censored} it, I don't need or want {censored}. My tone is great, guitars are fun to play, delay is good, boost is good, that's all I need. Now for better computer recording {censored}... I'm happy with mine too, but we both know we both need that Thunderverb 50.But truthfully, I'm really, really happy with mine. It sounds almost how I want it. I just want one more eq (maybe two or three more) and a stereo g-string for loop of both amps.btw, this is regarding my live sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members photon9 Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 Right now no. I hate my set-up. My bridge pup is completely dead and that's only helped me realize how aweful my neck pup sounds. Happily my SDs will be in tomorrow. Can't wait to slap them in and see how they sound. Oh and I'm upgrading from a mid 90s SS Princeton chorus (nice sounding amp however, just not enough oomph in the band) to a mid 70s Fender Twin (which I'm only getting cuz it's a steal. For the price I'm thinking why not. Even if I hate it, which I doubt, I can turn around and sell it for at least 200 more than I paid.) I'll let you know if I'm happy with all this in the near future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jnurp Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 I have come to the realization that i have some of the best gear money can buy and i can still make it sound like {censored} on any given day due to my ineptness at my instrument. I think instead of the holy grail tone search i need to do a holy grail playing search at this point and significantly improve my chops. So i guess to answer the question, yes i am satisfied with my rig but i am disgusted with myself . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Welladjusted Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 I'm really more in need of lessons than gear at this point. Some new pickups, pedalboard cables, and a new amp grille would be nice, but I'm fairly certain that I'd benefit more from actually practicing now that my tone is where I want it to be.

Members Cap'n Ahole Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 "HAPPY with your rig" = possible. I know I am. "COMPLETELY HAPPY" = probably damn IMPOSSIBLE! There's always SOMETHING you wish your rig could do. And if your rig CAN do it ALL; it's so big that you cant haul it around!! The Randall/Egnater RM4-RT2/50 combination is as close as I know one can get to covering all bases, but the modules arent perfect, plexi's dont sound just like a real plexi.. But even then, wouldnt it be nice if you could stomp in any speaker you wanted? A G12H-30, V30, GB, Alnico, or whatever Eminence you wanted at your toe-tip! .

My sound is still a bit fizzy for my tastes but I cant really be arsed to do anything about it I'm thinking of trying some different speakers but thats about it.. I think I just want some decent computer speakers/active monitors now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ron Burgandy Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 I'm extremely happy with my current live rig. I can't think of anything I really need to add to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
