My Guitar Rig

Over at Six String Lounge, Mark Lee (guitarist for Third Day) asked us to post pictures and descriptions of our guitar rigs.  Here’s mine.

Amp: Peavey Classic 30.  I re-tubed this amp about a year after I bought it and absolutely love it.  New tubes are 3 Sovtek 5751 (pre) and 4 JJ EL-84s.

Effects Pedal: Digitech RP-2000.  More than I could ever need.  On some tunes I play without it because the amp has a nice warm punch that gets softened a bit with the pedal effects.

Guitars: My main axes are the G&L S-500 and the Takamine EG-45SC.  Also pictured is my Greg Bennett LaSalle JZ-4 jazz box.  I have a few others (don’t we all…), but these are my main workhorses.

Future: I love my setup.  I’m looking at a new acoustic for fingerstyle playing for my next bday.  The Tak is great for strumming, but its weaknesses are revealed in fingerstyle.  I’m leaning Taylor 816ce ($$$).  At that point I will also want an acoustic amp.  My RP2000 sometimes goes a little crazy on me and requires a ‘reboot,’ so I’m keeping my eye on that–usually when it gets too hot, so I try to remember to unplug it between sets.
