Re: BOTR 2015: Best Head/cab rig
Damn, I took a new picture but didn't plug into the guitar, so maybe that's why mine was taken down. Maybe because the pedal-board wasn't fully in the picture, but I tried to make sure I didn't have the other amp beside it in frame. Oh well.

I don't think the Mojave was out at the get together Ruiner brought his Verellen.
We need a real ampfest at some point.
And thanks y'all, it's pretty rad. It's even more rad when the bassist (my old singer) and I go up and I can crank up both volumes and run the high input. The amp gain is waaaay better but I can't get it to work in this group as I need super clean cleans.

I'm not the biggest Orange fan, but yours and screamingdaisy's certainly got my attention. 'Course, I'm partial to your SG/Bigsby
, so there's that. Tough vote to cast, for sure.

Re: BOTR 2015: Best Head/cab rig
orange is very much like marshall--the old ones were fucking outstanding, there are some new ones that rule, but they are hidden amongst a bunch of pretty much garbage, models meant to appease the young emometallers

But I voted for '63 strat in 2012. So it was between Dave and Ruiner.
Those two rigs scratch VASTLY different itches.
Oh man, Turbo too
I think '63 used the same pic this time as he did in the 2012 BOTR competition.
Stop e-stalking me you creepy little man. Seriously.

Re: BOTR 2015: Best Head/cab rig
Every entry has somethingseriously fappable going on - it took me a day to figure out who I wanted to vote for.
It wasn't easy..
- Since my next amp will hopefully be a Mesa V:25, I was drooling over every Boogie posted.
- Firejack's Peters head and Achillies cabs look great.
- Nateispro's Science head is a beast of an amp.
- TurboPablo's Bandmaster and Kustom cabinet have made some high quality clips.
- Vlady's Mojave is, IMHO, the most fappable piece of gear posted.
- Naked Arab's two Les Pauls are exactly what I would want if I were to upgrade my Jr. He almost got my vote for the two Spy vs Spy head ornaments.
- Screaming Daisy's rig of doom is THE coolest rig posted. (Too bad the Electric was sold!)
In the end, I voted for the rig that I would like to jam through the most.
It was a combination of amp tone and pedal quantity/quality - and a Binson - that got my vote.
Love that Verellen!

Re: BOTR 2015: Best Head/cab rig
Trends I am tracking:
1. Peavey, EVH and Marshall amps are getting either no-love or self-love. Mesa Boogie is the Kiss of Death - amps or cabs.
2. Pedals - Flo's before Dro's.
3. GAB still loves Les Pauls.

I did. i thought we needed more fullstacks but was too lazy to clean mine up and take a new photo. I assumed it would've been left out of the voting considering I included that the head was sold (must've been mod edited). I kind of feel bad now.

Where did it say the head was sold? Did Billy edit it out?

I guess you shouldn't feel too bad if you pointed it out, but it was edited out later....
Still was a badass rig.

Re: BOTR 2015: Best Head/cab rig
Obviously different - he edited out most of the sign this year.
But who cares, if he still owns them......

Guess what, makes no difference as: a) I still own all the stuff and b) taking a new pic was not a requirement in the rules and c) you're still a sad little bitch.
