I'm not competing (do not enter me for votes) but just want to share my current 1/2 stack rig:

2204
Fryette PS100
1960 with greenbacks
Guyatone Delay (in the Fryette loop)
Morley Bad Horsie 20/20
Boss TU3
MXR Analog Chorus
Boss SD1
MXR Noise Clamp (not pictured)

Custom made offset
Fryette Pittbull 50/cl
Gravity 412 with Creambacks

Here it is:

Metropoulos Metroplex

Pedal board as detailed in the large board thread
2004 Gibson Les Paul R7 with BKP Mules (Goldie)
1985 Gibson Les Paul Standard with original Tim Shaw designed PAFs (Scarlet)

Yes, my wife names my guitars.

Here's my head/cab submission with one goal in mind... the low powered cranked Marshall sound.

Slagle Esquire
KingTone Duallist Overdrive
Fuchs Lucky 7 EL34 Head
Vox Open Back 2x12 Cab w/ Celestion Blue and 70's Blackback


When clean this amp/cab combination has a very bouncy kinda full bottom and nice grit on top. Add a good OD and that's all it needs to get a really really nice full cranked Marshall sound at very reasonable volume.

CHOOSE!

Guys I’m sorry, I forgot to get 2tall’s rig in there, and needed to add it. So we lost all the votes. So please revote.

This is the hardest category to choose. I need to sleep on it. So many great rigs!!

Say what you will about the headstock but I always loved that Burning Water finish.

Cheers

Went to a sort of Tyler get together at the old Tone Mechants in Orange County and saw a couple of guys walking around with these matte finish badasses and I had to have one, headstock and all

You'd love it I'd bet!

Congrats to Duncan! PM Mort for your Strings.

I see that I missed that Lester also had 4 votes, however he and Duncan worked things out and reminded me that Devin was leading before the votes got Nuked with 5 so they're deferring to Devin with the Sound City Stack. Which I am ok with (I remember there being 5 for Dev and I legit screwed that up). So Dev, collect your winnings of strings thanks to some good dudes in this contest.
