Most versatile sounds like rig: 1 - good guitar 2 - good amp 3- Rabea to play it all for you

[@handooho1294]

and a mac/pc with some form of guitar modulation software to add some more sounds for near free compared to getting another pedal

[@WhoWouldWantThisName]

1: Any guitar, any condition. 2: Any crappy thing resembling an amp in any way, shape, or form. 3: No effects necessary. 4: Rabea to play it all for you. That should do just fine.

[@seanm6667]

I would actually rather Matt as my personal sound guy. It would free up so much time.

[@SgtCh0pSu3Y]

@@handooho1294 I think they use the Boss Tone Studio, which comes with the amp and other pedals from Boss, so you can change the Settings of your Amp/Pedalboard over the Pc.

according to their website, the amp would actually be the PRS Jon Mayer Signature Amp Head at 6,495 pounds.... $8,776.11 usd.... wtf, that's not even with a cab. you all need to quit thinking Mayer is the new Clapton. He's just not. guitar for the website is a Dusenberg Dave Stewart Signature Series. 7895 pounds 10,619 usd. I had to google Dave Stewart to realize he's the guitarist for the Eurythmics.... Seriously? thinking of a lot of things I could do for 20 grand other than that...

[@Fektthis]

add about 1500 pounds for the mesa boogie cab..... this just doesn't sound like a great rig. although I'm sure you could get some ok sounds from it.

[@niklnik1008]

@@skarfie123 sure thing. Depending on your budget I would probably look for a good used one. You can even find prestige Japan models for less than 500. For new or cheaper guitars I would look for Indonesian models preferably without Floyds. The Gotoh bridges are quite good. If you want a tremolo I would look for that. Gotoh 1802 is the name I think. Pickup wise if you look for diversity the DiMarzios and Seymour Duncans are really good. DiMarzios more for the metal sound and SDs for kind of a bluesy and classic tone... I hope I could help a bit. If you have more questions just put them up.

I'd like to see you do a 'sound like' with 2 or 3 items in the room for comparison. You always select your instruments in the shop based on specs and price, never what they actually sound like. Maybe have an artist reference tone, then a few contenders for guitar and amp respectively in the demo room? Just a thought. Failing that, do Nuno and EVH please! :)

Fattuh ... True true

[@KeeperOfPoops]

Because his Musicman guitars are too much money and he used to use Ibanez so we can use the RG series seeing he used to have a signature Ibanez his amps are Mesa Boogie which are definately too much money so either Egnater or Blackstar, i think Egnater and for fx they should go Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer, Boss PH3 Phaser, MXR EVH Flange, a compressor, a delay, and a wah, but if they have enough money they could get his signature dunlop wah

[@dimiaraujo90]

Most versatile rig: -HSS or HSH Strat, or PRS with coil splitting -Blackstar amp with the ISF function, or maybe an Egnater (Tweaker or Rebel) -EQ, Compressor, and Boost pedals, by whatever brand. If you wanna thorough some modulation, delay or distortion also in there, that's up to you.

[@EnterJustice]

Get a Les Paul with the Jimi Page mod - humbuckers, split coils, out of phase sounds, pickups in series in any combination you like. You could do it with a PRS as well, but you'd need 4 switches total (2 pots + 2 additional switches, which many PRS models don't have). HSH/HSS strat (Fender, Ibanez etc) work fine too. Some swear by the Variax, but I'm not convinced. Then get a pedalboard with (in order of signal chain): - compressor (highly recommended) - (optional) wah and/or volume pedal - 2 or 3 types of dirt (overdrive, distortion, fuzz, clean boost)... staples are tubescreamer, RAT, Klone, Big Muff, OD-1,... - EQ (to sculpt the tone, get 7 or more bands for best effect) - (optional) some sort of modulation (tremelo, chorus, phaser, whatever you like) - delay - reverb - pedalboard amp/cab sim - something like the Strymon Iridium, Mooer Radar, Humboldt Simplifier, Walrus ACS1... (... Or just get a Line6 Helix variation if you like spending your days digging through menus... Or a multi-channel amp if you hate your back...) Plug into a mixer or directly into an FRFR cabinet and voila. You can now convincingly fake most guitar sounds.

[@RackhirTheRed]

Great rig, I can't knock it. I would go for a Fender Player Strat HSH, Katana, the boss footswitch, Lightspeed & either an expression pedal or a Wah. But that's just me.
