This is pretty much my main live rig. The Bogner Ecstasy, Marshall Vintage Modern cab with the Les Paul Custom and LP Standard as my backup. We actually use full stacks live, but I'm letting my brother borrow my Mills Acoustics 4x12 right now.

With limited space, in Madison Square Bedroom, I needed a way to get everything as close to the wall as possible.
Using Right Angled Power Cables and Right Angle Phone Jack Adapters, I was able to get my amps and cabs about 1" from the wall.

It always amazes me when these guys want to tell "their side of the story"

News flash: your product IS your side of the story. It tells everything we need to know.
