Thanks dudes, I made the guitar man.. 16 years ago now. Couldn't find any left handed guitars in my local shop when I wanted to learn to play the electric so I built one in woodwork when I was in the 8th grade. I drew up the shape myself, but it's kinda halfway between an SG and a FAT strat. It weighs a shit ton. The intonation is a tiny bit crap - I wasn't real good at routing the neck cavity and stuff. But I've done it up as much as I can over the years, and it sounds pretty good. One of these days I'll put a new neck on it. I learnt alot making it, and I've been planning to do another one for years and years, but I never seem to get around to it. The shape is a little "neck heavy".

I tried to keep the photo to "this is my stuff I gig with". Same philosophy with the pedals - anything that doesn't get used goes on the home board, or to the basement to the "I may need this one day" box. But yeah Ryan, I like to keep em small so I can get as many sounds on there as possible. The exception is going to be the coming Subdecay Flanger DLX, which is going to be huge. But I don't care. I love flange, and I love Subdecay!

I've got another 2x12 with Celestion V30s (don't really dig them that much) and I'd planned to roll with 2 2x12s, but the other guitarist in the band has "borrowed" it for the last few years... But seriously, it is soooo much nicer playing 2x12s than 4x12s live. Saves my back ;)

Hehe!

I stuck a poster of Steve Harris to the right of the bassist's rig to give him some inspiration as well

You should totally wear that thing all the time. Like, to work, and at the dinner table. You would be :yay: constantly.

The 45 is there because, well, cripples don't run.

And a can of something is essential if I'm too engrossed in working to get up and make food, let alone to get up and get food.

A sign of a good recording night is well, a stack of cans under the desk.

I'm finding I can never record when I'm plugged into my full setup but if I just use Guitar Rig I could finish a song a night. It's annoying.

Same dude. I need to get some amp mics though, because some things just don't sound the same when I run my pedals into my computer
