Loop's gear is awesome but, Rooiner's Home Recording Studio got my vote... that was a tough one but, that remote control mic stand won me over.
With Loop and Ruiner being the only two worthy contestants, a third party vote would be a waste.

Ajax in very close second though. Really dig the style there.

Then, I looked closer and noticed the Purple Wind sitting on top!
Love my Purple Wind!!!

I purposefully came in here to comment on his entry!!!

Come ON!!
You guys are awesome!

It was kind of a joke, considering the wattage and iron you guys throw around in your stacks. I was pleased as punch to enter three separate categories and only duplicate a single cable. Because coily cable rules!

Just had a question. Pretty sure I am not going to win anyway but I wanted to ask. Each category has a winner and then it goes to a final where it is the winner from each category against each other?
So best stack vs best studio vs best combo vs best pedalboard = winner?

I'm on board with this. In fact, given that on top of all the awesome gear and instrumental talent, he's also good looking and can sing, I would be open to the idea of banning him completely.

I dunno.... there seems to be a larger-than-usual number of new members (with no posts) who joined right after voting started.
I suppose that, if I created new profiles, from work and my cell phone, I could vote two more times.... something is fishy....

Hey man it was highly encouraged to recruit new members to vote. Maybe they will stick around who knows.
I can claim Fam5 as one of my friends that I recruited to vote for me. I have a couple of others that if I twisted their arms I am sure would vote but I won't really worry about it. I know I do not have the best rig anyway and can't compete with a killer studio lol.
I was half tempted to get my wife and daughter to join to vote but I figured that would be crossing the line

However, I did also post this on Rig Talk and I know of at least 1 RT'er gear freak who is awesome that will more than likely stick around so isn't that what it is all about anyway?

It's all good, clean fun. As long as no one loses and eye, I suppose it's OK.

This is a great contest though and makes me want to buy more gear

If any of you know Reza I told him I am going to steal his Mark IIC ++ for next years giveaway since he refused to join and vote.
