I love the look of that guitar too - the wrap around changes the whole look of the guitar for the better too.

Agree. One my dream guitars would be one of those wraptail goldtops from Gibson Custom. R4 I think they were called.

Agree
I should really pick one up oh hang on

The blue one I mean
Got lots of burst and off white colours but was a bout time I blue myself

So the 4x12 carvin was sold last week and tho I'm sad at its going I'm happy that now it forces me to use the splawn
It's such a well made piece of kit and gels nicely with the 11R and no tone suck

Not the biggest setup in the world but the tones are many.

Megalith with a Tele! That’s pretty cool

Current setting: imagine La Dee Da tone.

Love that copper top!

Which one?
I post this not to boast; only to help me realise how much stuff I have.

The one guitar that has never left the roost.

97 AVRI 52

Lovely beast.

Funnily enough, I wanted the traditional butterscotch blonde but this one scratched that itch instead.

Do you use the clean channel or drive channel on the Lionheart? Lately, I have been using the drive channel and foregoing OD pedals.

Clean channel - low input with the OD pedals especially with heavier gain settings on the Neuron / Megalith.

If I want to be really clever....(and it takes a lot!! ) I use low input on the drive channel set with a bit of break up and use a low to medium gain setting on the Neuron to push the amp.

It's quite dynamic and chimey with some grunt underneath it.

If I'm using the high input, I generally don't run OD into that as the drive channel is tasty on it's own but if I do run OD into that......it's huge!!

Nice, is that a Jason Isbell tele?

So the brief was, no item over 12kg, 2 trips to the car max, minimal set up time, stereo. There is a TPA3255 class D 2x 150W amp in one of the cabs, a speaker cable goes to the slave cab. The pedalboard feeds the master cab via TRS cable. There's still some finishing touches to go on the pedalboard, some trim to hide the staples & some cable management etc.


Signal path is: Digitech polyphonic tuner > Meris Enzo Synth > Boss OD200 overdrive > Input of LY Rock Tone monster (DSM & Humboldt Simplifier clone), send of Lyrock > GFI Synesthesia, stereo out >  Source Audio Nemesis Delay > Source Audio Ventris Delay > input of 4 channel headphone amp. From there one output goes via TRS to the stereo amp, another output goes into the LY Rock return to drive the stereo cab sim DI outputs.  Mosky ISO 10 for pedal power.
There are no controls on the power amp, the headphone output level is the master volume, I run at around 4/10 to keep up with medium volume drummers. 
It's a bit complicated & wacky but I'm pretty sure this is the simplest way to do what I wanted. 
 I will ditch the janky headphone amp but can't find a single device (asides other headphone amps) that'll replace it. But I think running ~3k of pedals into a $15 clone of a $75 behringer adds a certain charm.

And the Ye Olde World Charm is aweosome.

Well done.

Fuck yeah, that's the way forward. I ran a similar thing for a while, including the four-way headphone amp (probably the same Behringer one). Agree that there's no better solution, at least without using two devices.

Forgot the under hood shoot:
I couldn't find hinges that'd work so I synthesized a 4 bar linkage that would a) lift approximately vertically near the closed position so the latches can engage smoothly b) bottom out and rest at the right spot in the open position c) maintain the gap to the rear wall so plugs can pass thru when open or closed.

It's a shame my camera skills don't do it justice
