	My rig: A home made poplar bodied guitar with rail humbuckers, 'd' tuner, piezo transducer and about a dozen switches and knobs. I also have a white telecaster with black hardware. Looks kind of artsy under the coloured lights. All hardware and necks on both guitars are from various guitar parts suppliers. I have an old "Soundtank" distortion pedal. I think Ibanez made them back in the 80's. Got it at a used goods shop for cheap. For an amp, believe it or not, I'm using an old record player that I got at a garage sale. It's one of the old kind that were used in schools for years. I plug into the "aux in" and it sounds beautiful. It's good for a laugh but all laughing stops when they hear the tone. I'm currently between acoustics. I want to get a twelve string soon. edit: I almost forgot, I also have an Epiphone Les Paul Jr. with a Ross bass amp. It's currently on loan to my nephew. I want it back but don't have the heart to ask for it since he's obviously fallen in love with it. Edited by darren

	I stick a Dean Hardtail Standard through a Behringer GMX212 (2x60). It's loud enough for my purposes and the Dean is one of the most perfect instruments I've ever played.

	Cort M600, does anybody out there own a Cort ? I love this guitar. I play this through a Boss GT6, an old Boss analogue delay and a horrible Peavey bandit amp.ni The Boss is a great machine.I am on a very tight budget so this is the perfect machine,great sound and reletively cheap.The syth sounds are great with a bit of tweaking and the 'tracking' is a big improvement on the GT5. Many a drunken evening blasting out Riding the Scree !!

	speaking of... has anyone here ever made their own effects? I'm an Electrical Engineering student and I built my own boost pedal this summer. the prospect of building my own effects pedals seems like a lot of fun and I want to do it more often. does anyone have experience with this?

	I only use a Vox ToneLab SE - and my guitar. It's all I need ... and it covers a lot of sounds and effects.

	For guitar, I use a Gibson '72 Les Paul or a Peavey Raptor Plus EXP through a Black Cat Moan/Wah, Ross distortion, Electro-Harmonix Bad Stone Phase Shifter, and a Digitech Digiverb, all into a Peavey TransTube 258 EFX or a Behringer GMX210. For guitar, I use a Peavey Foundation, Squire P-bass Special, Peavey Milestone IV, and soon a Rogue LX200BF fretless, all ito a Peavey Bassic 112 (low-end), which feeds a Peavey MicroBass (high-end). And then I will reroute my effects loop into the bass amp.

	A bunch of keyboards (11 or so, mainly Korg, Yamaha and Novation), 2 Pods (Bass and Guitar XT Pros), Westone Thunder 1A, Ovation and Fender Katana Bass. I don't use my amps these days, but I've got a Laney 45 that gets a superb sound when combined with the Westone, and a Yamaha B-100 combined with a Peavey 2x10 and 1x18 Black Widow cab for el basso profundo - and with that setup, it gets pretty profundo! These all feed into a 3Ghz HT Wintel PC running Sony Acid 5.0, equipped with an aging Echo Gina sound card.

	Pretty simple for me: Epiphone SG (cherry red) Traynor YCV-40 tube amp (it's like having a Fender Deluxe and a Marshall Plexi in one amp, tone for days!) Yamaha Magic Stomp multi-effects pedal Volume Pedal For Recording: PC with Cubase SE software (up to 48 tracks audio and unlimited MIDI) Alesis Multi-Mix 16-Channel USB/Audio mixer A ton of VST Soft-Syths (Mellotrons, Clavinet, Organs, e-pianos, Mini-Moog and ARP 2600 synths to name a few) Edited by The Owl

	I still have all my old keyboards which include - ARP AXXE (needs to be repaired), Korg PolySix (likewise) Roland D50 (works fine !) Memorymoog (at the repair shop - 18 months now!) Fender Rhodes Suitcase 88 (needs a service) Honer Clavinet (also requires a service) & finally a Kurzweill K2600x which works perfectly ! I hope to one day get the money together to get the old keyboards up & running (ha ha) as they all have unique sounds which can inspire a sudden riff !!
