What's your favourite guitar rig setup your've ever used?
What do you concerned to be the best or dream setup, if you had the cash? I got a Les Paul Gibson Standard - Double Cut with 24 frets, Seymour Duncan SH-5 Custom in the bridge and an Sh-1 59 in the neck. She's a beaut, plays nicely, and sounds smooth. A new Pod HD500 mutli-effects, sounds great, awesome blues/rock, etc, but needs more hi-gain (hopefully the next firmware patch with contain the hi-gain I'm after). Laney Hardcore HCM65R, good, loud, but can muck in it's own heavy american crush tone over the effects a bit. I would love a Line 6 DT50 Amp to work well with the HD500 and get that tube sound with automatic tone adjustments (links up with the Pod automatically changing settings). I love my axe, but would enjoy a shredder's axe more I believe, something faster and with a wammy bar, active pickups, maybe a Gibson Explorer, PRS 513, Ibanez RG550, or Ibanez RG 3550MZ! Replacing the pickups with those James Hetfield signature EMG JH would be awesome! I have rather expensive taste...

I really enjoy my rig now quite a bit.
Amp: Marshall 1960s 4x12 slant cab, with an Egnator Renegade 65w head. Effects: I also use the Pod HD500 Guitars: Gibson LP Studio (Stock all the way around) , Gibson Explorer (Standard for now thinking the new EMG JH set for it) , Dean Dime-O-Flame (Kill switch, EMG 81/85) Dream gear: I would love to replace my head with either a Mesa Triple Rectifier or a Stiletto. Guitar I don't know. I've eyeballed the Gibson Buckethead Sig , Schecter Loomis 7-string FR , Ibanez 7-string, Music Man JP with a piezo. -------------------- Guitars:

I had a nice hi-gain Zakk Wylde sound it was based off of Angel F-Ball/Treadplate, but its dead since I did the last update so I've been trying to get it close to it again. My main one is enter sandman from the Line 6 Custom Tone site, it does what I need for the most part till I finish some. I love all my guitars. I even have the first guitar I was given still needs worked on a lot. But of the 3 listed I want to say the Explorer gets the backseat. I just love my LP the tones it gives and how it feels overall. The Dean Dime-O-Flame, pretty much a Dean ML with a floyd rose and a flame graphics on it. It's my goto when I need to wank out with some dive bombs and such. -------------------- Guitars:

High gain preset:
1) Update Pod HD Firmware to 1.3.1 2) Update POD HD500 Edit to new version which supports Firmware 3) Create new preset 4) Select Line 6 Elektrik as Amp 5) Save and Jam! (best to keep things simple) Caution: Extreme prolonged loud noise can make other things sound wimpy and quiet.

I really like my current setup (bass) and only thing I feel lacking is the amp. I'm using Nemesis (by Eden) 115 combo 250 watts of power.
I have a good bass (Fender American Deluxe Jazz) and bunch of cool pedals. I'm starting to be a fan of Markbass, I got the super booster pedal and it's very cool. I'm thinking of getting the Compressore pedal from them soon. Now regarding amp, I would need a head + 1x15 + 4x10 setup. Since I like the Eden tone, it would be a head like : Eden WT800 World Tour Bass Amp Head. Also their cabs would be nice as they are very high quality and most important - light to carry around. It would be called : "The drummer intimidating bass rig!" hahahah  Something like this :

@Uncreator - I quite like the Mesa Boogie tone on my Pod HD500, it's one of my favs!
