After All These Years Of Spending, Playing & Buying/Selling - Where Are You Now ???

Wazmeister

I feel as settled as I have ever felt right now. Two set-ups interchangeable...


1.) Home - Kemper -> Genelecs 8020

2.) Live - Kemper -> Red Sound RS LP12 Active Cab (into PA with 2 x DXR 10s)


Guitars

- Rickenbacker 360/12 WB
- Fender Masterbuilt '67 Tele
- Fender Masterbuilt '63 Strat
- Suhr Alt T Pro


Amps

- Carr Rambler
- Redplate CDS2


Digital

- Kemper PA
- Helix HX Effects


That weedy looking set-up (below) is as good a home set up as Ive ever encountered. Superb.

The real shock has been the Suhr Alt T Pro. For my style, it is one of the most versatile, inspiring and melodic guitars Ive ever played.

The next few weeks, with the band, will dictate whether my two beloveds (MB Tele and Redplate CDS2) are subsequently moved on and sold...


What about you ? Where are you now ? Don't forget your pics !!

Home: Guitar -> interface -> Helix Native -> Tannoy Reveal 6 pair
Live: Helix -> DXR10 + PA
Live (II): Helix -> Rocktron Velocity 120 -> Matrix NL212

The second live rig is only for situations where I'm likely to encounter a sound guy who refuses to DI the guitar, or a PA which isn't capable of coping with more than just kick and vocals. The only thing I may change is getting a second DXR10 so that I can always use the FRFR setup even in the latter case. That'll simplify all my patches significantly.

Honestly, it's the most stable, flexible, easy-to-use and easy-to-carry setup I've ever had.

Guitars are the same as they've always been (for the last few years, at least) and probably always will be - a pair of Jaden Rose Teles, one lightweight and one...less so.

I’ve made a conscious decision to own less stuff recently. So ‘out’ has gone my 64 335, PRS McCarty, Taylor GS Mini, American Vintage 59 Strat, Blackstar HT1R and Mesa Lonestar Special.

Not all bad news though - ‘in’ has come a 56 Relic Strat, a PRS DGT, a Busker Delta Resonator and an early 80s Musicman RD50 amp.

I'm right in the middle of the selling phase. Where I've now realised I don't need all the stuff I have and most times I prefer to just play one or two electrics and an acoustic.

Warren your setup is inspirational, mate! Those guitars are incredible, all of them. I love that CAR Strat, beautiful!

I'm pretty much with you. The Kemper is taking up the duties of many of my old pedals and slowly but surely I'm finding ways to replace some more. I'm working on getting a profile to sound like a Big Muff today, and that'll be the last pedal I'll need to try and replicate...getting good results already! Like you, I've never been happier!

 I’m down to a Tweed Deluxe 1x12 clone, Navigator Goldtop, Angry Angus Strat, Small pedalboard with Palmer Distortion, Boss DD-2, Strymon Flint and incoming Emma boost overdrive pedal that I can’t spell the name of..and a crappy acoustic

Where am I?

In Difficult-to-move-all-this-shit-about-the-planetville: population me.



Not pictured: some of the guitars, amps, effects and multi-effects units, some of the drum kits and snares, any of the mic locker.

2 guitars and one amp.

. . . and 35 pedals.

It might not be that musical to most people, but in 2018 I've uploaded 38 original recordings to YouTube, which is 38 more than the last 10 years.

Fuck me, I'd trade a bollock for that lot.

How does the kemper compare to redplate in live band situation ?

ellwood

At a point where I have far too much stuff and want to go back to a couple of guitars and an amp!

Wazmeister

@Barney - mate, does anything sound as good as a Redplate live ??!!?? I doubt it...

Nonetheless, one of the profiles I have does sound remarkably close. I plan to profile my own CDS2 soon...

If been sort of interested going the Kemper route for a while but nowhere local to me sells them and even off that's the case it's hard to tell what they will sound like in a band...let me know how it goes profiling the Redplate

@octatonic wins the internet for today. What a setup 

west

I wished i could say "just my lowden "  its the only thing im playing 95 % of the time . i wished i could make all the electric stuff go away without regret and yet im still looking at collings soco 's ...  my andy's havnt been picked up for 6 months gawd knows how long since i switched the rambler on , the draw is lined with pedals ... i ask myself why cant i let that stuff go .....

Some nice and interesting set ups appearing.

@Wazmeister - a very tidy and versatile set-up. If you don't need to sell your Fender MB (s), don't

@Octatonic - I take it you still have your Tom Andersons?

Live: 

Helix LT (effects only, no ampsim in path routed to 1/4" jack outs) >>> Fender HRD IV and Roland Blues Cube Artist

Home (for practice): 

Helix LT (exactly the same patches as for live but with ampsim in path routed to XLR outputs) >>> Zoom UAC-2 direct out to >>> Yamaha HS7 monitors (or headphones)

Home (recording): 

Zoom UAC-2 >>> Computer >>> Reaper >>> Loads of ampsims but mainly use S-Gear 2, Helix Native (guitar and bass), Amplitube Fender 2, Amplitube SVX 2 (bass) and Kazrog Thermionik with Recabinet (for heavy stuff).

Guitars for live:
Fender American Standard HSS Strat, also a PRS S2 as backup (which virtually never gets used).

Other guitars:
Lots plus Squier Vintage Modified 5 string bass.

I am in the process of getting down to

1 electric which will be the Novo Serus T
1 acoustic James Millman J45 style Adi/walnut
1mandolin Peceny  

Swart AST
Small board currently KOT/Effectrode Mercury/RYRA/Chrono/Chasetone Fuzz/Spaceman Fuzz/Vibe

and thats it

all the rest is for sale or going to be for sale...

one incoming early next year will be a Novo Thinline type guitar...

can get loads of tones out of the Novo with that old fashioned notion of using the controls on the actual guitar...a myriad in fact and what i feel as a guitar player who wants to be a very good guitar player..is that by me only having the one guitar,i will have to focus more on what i play and find variety within that and not by swithching guitars amps pedals continuously.

Been great fun though and this current frame of mind may last a little while
