Sizzler's LP tips the scales pretty heavily and nothing wrong with his rig at all :fap: ...but IMO the overall rig winner is Dave's lps and mrak.

May the best GAB rig win! :thu:

Which is how I play my IIC 99% of the time. I definitely don't use the TS9 with it ever since it has so much midrange as-is, and rarely use the fuzz. I could do without the reverb and tremolo too :D
