Ive been looking at mainly pre-amps for the time being, such as the Rocktron Voodu Valve or maybe even a prophecy II. What else could i put in there to make it a killer setup??

It depends of what you're searching for,killer setup is wide range I think. I have Prophesy,Mesa 2:90 and Furman PC inside my rack. It covers small clubs/big venues without any problems so I'm quite happy with it. Also,stuff like G-major and TriAxis are greatl,so it's up to you.

Ive checked on the mesas like the 20/20 and the 2:90 and they are out of my price range. I'd be pushing it to get an almost $1000 prophecy and a lord knows how much mesa power amp. I guess i should say killer setup on a budget. probably $1500 for everything. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Stuff like Velocity 100 are fine,but tube is tube. But,you're still your BOSS. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I agree with you tubes are awesome and i already have a tube combo and was just looking into a slightly more customizable setup to use in the future. Like i said before Im just starting to get an idea of what id like to do for my next setup and any input is appreciated. I really need to just play what i have but I'm one of those people who always have to keep upgrading stuff. Its like a sickness i really can't help it You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
