Rig 2: Ultimate Plexi Rig:
Clone of Eddie's 12301 Plexi, variac'd to 90V, attenuated and re-amped with the Power Station 2. HOF Reverb is in the Power Station loop. All other effects up front. Fulltone SSTE is the last effect before the input of the amp. Echo Cancel Footswitch for the SSTE on the board as well.
Inside the Plexi. Couldn't resist - ain't she pretty? Hand built by me:

Well, since Steve Henning already won, I don't think I have a good reason to post this, and since the guitar is on my shoulder, it's not in the award-losing shot:

Re: BOTR 2018: Best Head/Cab Rig
BF Bassman Head & Cab (1965?) and 2006 Eric Johnson Stratocaster.
I just finished wiring the cab Sunday morning and snapped cell phone pics moments ago,
but had to get this in. I went with the Alnico Jensens on Billy's advice. I bought
a 2006 EJ Strat that just arrived Friday. I'm guessing the Jensens will warm up as time goes on,
but it sounds fantastic as is. All I've run so far is the HOF reverb,
and just strumming chords is dreamy. Anyway, enjoy!
