Don't you have problems with those plastic crates vibrating buzzing or rattling?


I've considered them before as "stands" but figured the just were not substantial enough to resist all the vibration.

Nope no probs with the milk crates- YET !
They are about the only aspect of the rig that works as it should ....

are you still looking for vocals?

Yes we are ... but that be a hell of a drive twice a week.

The country music scene in that area is pretty small, maybe he's planning on moving! (Even the New Hampshire country scene has been slowing)

lol EXCELLENT

"death to country and western"

I'd play hardcore before C+W.
"better dead than red" lol

I think I got my rig to where I want it but you know how we guitarists are...lol
Anyway here's my rig:
Guitar- 2004 Epi Les Paul Standard w/Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates in the bridge & a SD 59 in the neck. Big difference in sound with those pu's!!!!
Pedals- Boss PW10 wah, Boss BD2 (used as a boost), Tech21 British V2(love this distortion pedal, can go from a Bluesbreaker to Plexi to JCM800 with a twist of the knob)and a Behringer SE200 which is their take of the BBM sonic stomp, really brings the sound out!
Amp- Marshall MG250DFX- Good sounding amp has basic eminence speakers in it,I use the clean setting for everything and just use the Tech21 pedal for my distortion.
Cables- I use planet waves the american stage model I think it's called, great cable, Hosa cables for my pedals and a planet waves cable to the amp.
Also I use a Godlyke power supply and a Snark clip on tuner( best tuner I ever used!!!!) and picks I use Dunlop jazz picks..... Well that's it!!!!!!

I play acoustic and electric rythym guitar. To save me from having to bring 2 amps; I use a tube screamer pedal to dirty up the electric and run it thought my Crate Acoustic amp that has 2 channels. Works like a charm. Don't have to sacrifice the quality of the acoustic either.
