Guitars: B.C. Rich Warlock with Vibrato locked in place (been meaning to replace that one with something better. It's an NJ version, that's why. I really mean to get a P.R.S. because I consider them to be real all-in-one guitars)
Art&Lutherie Electro-Accoustic guitar (I think this one's no longer made)
Pickup (Bridge): diMarzio Steve's Special
Amp: Hughes&Kettner Vortex, which lately broke down due to some stagehand dropping it. Been using my bandmate's spare Kitty Hawk all-tube top, and I love it to a point where I consider buying it from him.
Effects: some older Digitech multieffect (on stage), Rocktron Tsunami Chorus (which i absolutely love, so natural-sounding!), Cry-Baby Wah
As far as effects are concerned, I'm a fan of "less-is-more". I only use the multieffect on stage for ease-of-use. A good distortion, a smooth clean sound with just a pinch of reverb and chorus, and a wah, that's all I need.
EDIT: Oh, and, I just noticed how old this thread is, so I post this:

PRS SE Custom gray-black - Stagg Stratocaster imitation (guess which one I use)
Amp: I don't know, it was with my old cheap Stagg...
Pedals: none. Yeah, I'm a cheap cunt, still, I have no money, when I'll have some I guess I'll have a Boss GT-6.
Oh, and I have a classical guitar by Antonio Lorca, no idea who he is, but I bought it waaaay back

I play a Washburn X pro series and thats my only electric. My acoustics are Tanglewood TW28 and a Silvertone.
Effects: None
Amps: Line 6 Spider III and II. Both shitty amps that I picked up very cheap. Looking to get a nice tube amp this summer.

Axes:
USA Jackson SL2H Soloist (amber sunburst flametop, tied w/the EJ Strat for my favorite)
USA Fender Fat Strat Texas Special (rosewood board, sienna sunburst, modded with locking tuners and a Wilkinson bridge)
Gibson Explorer '76 Reissue (heritage cherry, modded w/Duncan Seth Lover p'ups w/nickel covers, white pearloid pickguard & trussrod cover, Spurzel locking tuners, a great gigging guitar, gets most of the drop D duty)
Fender Eric Johnson Strat (2-tone sunburst, unmodded except for straplocks... my baby, I fucking LOVE this guitar!)
'79 Dean ML (black, modded a la Dimebag w/Bill Lawrence 'bucker in bridge, non-tremolo)
A decent Yamaha acoustic and a decent Alvarez acoustic/electric. This is where my collection is sorely lacking... probably where my next major purchase will be... suggestions?
Amps:
Mesa Road King II mark II head (just got it 3 months ago, and I'm still in perpetual tweak mode, but I'm getting really, really close to nailing the sounds I want with it, then again... do we ever really "nail it"? It was down to the wire between this one & an Engl Powerball, but the Mesa won me over with the mix & match ELs & 6Ls & incredible clean tones, not to mention that delicious Lone Star reverb!)
Fender Tone-Master head (great and surprisingly versatile amp, best, fattest distortion ever from Fender, excellent clean tones & substantial "not everybody has one" factor. I hate to do it, but I need to offset the $2653.00 cost of the Mesa some, so you'll probably be seeing this one on Ebay soon if anyone's interested. Just had it re-tubed with badass cryo-treated JJ's & Tung Sols from the Tubeman.com, too... incredible difference in the mids especially)
Fender Pro-sonic combo (practice/jammin' amp, actually more gain than the Tone-Master, not quite as unique or versatile, though, but with pedals & plugged into a 4x12, it smokes!)
Old, HEAVY Peavey Butcher 4x12 cab loaded with Greenback Celestions (great sounding cab, punchy & fat. It'll more than hold me over until I can afford a matching Mesa Road King 4x12 next year.)
Behringer 4x12 cab (loaded with Jensens... nice backup cab)
Pedals:
OK, I admit it, I have a pedal problem... I'm constantly shuffling a few in & out of my SKB stage five board, but the ones that are pretty much constant are:
Boss TU2 (tune it, or DIE!)
Maxon CP9+ Compressor/limiter (I did a LOT of research on this one, and tried pretty much all the top-rated ones, Keeley, Bicomp, Carl Martin, etc., and the Maxon is pretty much the balls! Also by far the most transparent and versatile, it's even forced my beloved BBE Sonic Stomp out of the chain for now!)
Maxon OD808 Overdrive (phenomenal Tube Screamer, if I can somehow force myself to live without it for a few weeks, I want to send it to Analogman for a Silver mod, though!)
Budda Bud-Wah (my favorite wah by far... Fulltone Clyde a verrrry close second, but I just prefer the slightly more vocal tone of the Budda better.)
MXR EVH Phase 90 (accept no substitute!)
MXR EVH Flanger (see above... actually does a cool rotary sound if ya dial it in right, too!)
Visual Sound H2O Chorus/Echo (nice echo, very organic, the chorus OWNS though... BBD chips must really be the shit, 'cuz I get more compliments on my chorus sound than I ever did before with this one. Fucking huge pedal though, I almost would prefer just the chorus in a smaller one, oh well...)
Boss DD3 (excellent all-purpose delay, still contemplating going rack here, though, as much as I swore I'd never go back to rack after my ADA MP2 days!)
Boss NS-2 (very good noise surpressor, but I may end up trying out something else, like the ISP Decimator. Suggestions?)
Jacques Mercer Box (I've removed this one for now since I got the Mesa. It's an incredible, ultra-ballsy yet surprisingly warm distortion pedal. I used this one with the Tone-Master to cop a very convincing Mesa tone. I just don't really need it with the Road King, though, the solo boost on the head and the OD808 pretty much give me all the extra punch I want when I need it. Great pedal though, it comes about as close to being a Mesa-in-the-Box as any distortion I've ever heard. Very versatile, too.)
I've got several others that come & go, and I'm sure my pedal addiction is far from cured, but these are the mainstays.
Anyone know of a 12-step (pardon the pun) program for pedalholics? lol
