The Ultimate Rig

What do you guys think the ultimate live rig would be, including amps, effects, guitars, processors, whatever you think would make the perfect rig.

Yes, and it's already been proved concretely in polls (on this site) that 97.6% of people here think that the ultimate rig is a Metal Master with Hi-Fi speakers. Almost everyone here has their dream set-up already, including myself. I suggest you go for it too.

Hey I was just tryin to get some ideas on what kind of shit to buy. I never was really into buyin alot of gear but now I'm in a pretty cool band and need to have some good shit to back up my superior guitar playin ability. I,ve been lookin in the back of guitar world were they show certain bands rigs but from the way yall talk it should'nt be trusted 100%. And I aint been on this forum very long to know what all has already been talked about.

I've seen that huge-amount-of-gear pic before. To me that's supremely unnecessary.

For me?

Jackson RR (have it) -----> some ENGL (have it) ------> FX Unit ------> decent sounding cab.

Throw in something that can control my ENGL via midi as well and a midi floor controller and there you go.

Someone offered me a marshall 1960 cab with a framus cobra in trade for my ENGL powerball with my mesa 4x12" cab.

Is that a good deal ? And if the trade will be made, I have 2 mesa 4X 12" cabs. But if I trade i end up with having one marshall 1960 and one mesa. Will taht sound wierd in any way ?.Btw, I never played a framus before. I can play it at the guys house. but that will be over a week. maybe some guys have an opinion of it I can use now.

And I'm sorry if I hijacked the thread with this question

Fender FM 212 (100 watts)
Boss MD-2
Boss CS-3
Boss CH-1
Boss GE-7
Dunlop Crybaby
Behringer DD700(??)

Not that it's my absolute dream gear but whatever....

value-wise it sounds like a pretty even trade... but sound-wise, it just depends on which you like better.

i wouldnt be suprised if it was more... that's not even all of his gear.

he's got about 39 preamps now i think. he just bought a bogner triple giant(not the hafler/bogner version, only like 50 in the world) for like $2,000. plus his CAE 3+ probably ran him a couple G's, as well as his matchless, his bogner fish, those two rivera tbr's, his couple hundred pedals, his cab's, all his fx processors. the custom racks to hold everything... i mean, man i could go on for days.

in otherwords. he's a fucking bitch.
