Well, Im real excited to talk about this, as I have just added two new kids to the "gear" family!!!!

 

First off, I got myself a great Fender stratocaster which plays beautifully, it's in a cream color, with a very strange enigmatic pickguard color, it's got some sort of duncan pickups, looks like minihumbuckers, but Im not sure, though they sound fantastic.

Also, today, (what I actually went to the store to pick up ) I got myself an E-MU Xboard 49 MIDI controller to play all my awesome mellotron, moog, string synths, etc with.  I just barely installed it and played on my mellotron plugins for a few minutes and Im already loving this controller!! I dont think anything really beats it for the money!

Anyways, my guitar rig consists of my Laney VC30 which sounds fantastic, though I always run my guitar into my Digitech GNX processor to get all my custom made effects and tones for specific sounds. Before today, the guitar I mostly played on (electric anyway) was my Epiphone LP Custom with replaced parts, including new Duncan pickups, which I love with all my heart.

Also, the guitar I play most is my acoustic, some sort of rare Takamine model with a cutaway and a preamp in it, I love it to death, and I think it sounds fantastic. I just absolutely adore my equipment, and just like you said it Pam, it all in itself inspires me everyday to come up with great music playing these awesome instruments!

Links to musical projects coming soon!!!

Tonight I pulled out some old gear, hooked it up, and had a great time sifting through old presets, and creating some new tones. My guitar rig is ever-changing, but the staples of it are my Strat, a Line 6 Pod xt, a Behringer FCB 1010 controller and an ancient Acoustic 165 tube combo. Tonight I pulled out my old Digitech GSP 2101, dusted it off, placed the Pod xt in it's effects loop, and shortly discovered that with this rig I can cover virtually any guitar tone I could think of.  I set about programming the FCB to approximate my pedal board from the 1980's, which I was able to do with the Pod's models and some of the 2101's more arcane delays.

Next thing I knew, I had another new part developing. Funny that, how using old equipment can be inspiring...
