What kind of gear do you people use?

Guitars:
- Fender 80's Strat.
- ESP M-50 (killer guitar....full-of-fucking-metal \m/)
- Homemade Telecaster (Malcom Young Fender design)
- Mini Flying V (shitty)
- Classical Guitar (had for years...havent been bothered to find out what it is)

Amps:
-Marshall Mini Stacker (2x 12)
-Peavy 65 wt (excellent distortion)
-RockBug 5wt or less (you clip it on your belt and dance in the streets)

Effects:
- Zoom GFX 707
- ToneWorks something...not bad (my bro's)
 
If you want to play metal, all you need is a Peavey 5150 head and 4x12 cab. You can throw all of your distortion stomp boxes away! This thing oozes metal overdrive! 120Watts of pure death!
 
Hails... holyshit guys, what the hell are happening with you? don´t you knwo how to EQUALIZE the metalzone?!?! ahahaha
i have it and play it for 7 years and i got decent and blasphemical powered distortion with it.
changing the direction of the topic.... i want to ask (for the experts) What kind of amp/distortion/overdrive pedal is needed to reach the tone of the new cd called Nihility from that POLISH BAND CALLED :
DECAPITATED.?!?!?i know that they use E.M.G Pick ups(on the bridge is a 81).:eek:
 
Here we go again ;)

Guitars:
Ibanez Universe UV7BK (the main axe)
Ibanez Universe UV7BK (the one I am still trying to sell....grumble)
Ibanez RG2027 (Piezo's and a sexy mahogony body, with an evo7 and paf7)
Ibanez Jem7BSB (The fun guitar!)
Ibanez s540ltd
Ibanez RGsomething (in pieces, one fucked up guitar called gimp)
BCRich USA Warlock
Washburn steel strung acoustic

Amplification wise:
Triaxis Preamp
Rivera TBR1

Effects:
Boss GT-5
Rocktron Hush Super-C
Vox Wah pedal
Korg DTR-1 Rack Tuner

And somewhere there's a boss eq pedal which never gets used.
 
It seems that everybodys satisfied with his Pod 2. I was thinking of getting one, but then came out Pod Xt, Pod Pro and also this Amp Modulation program called Amplitube. Anybody knows which got the best balls?
 
Comparing a Metalzone to a tube distortion is stupid in my opinion cuz u pay what? 80/90 bucks for a Metalzone? How much would you have to pay for tube distortion? ( I got my metalzone for 50 bucks used )

No I'm NOT rich. :( I've been spending ALL of my money that isn't needed for bills, on musical equipment for the past 5 years or so...

I even lost a GF I might have married, because I wouldn't buy her a stupid ring and bought music equipment instead...

I suffer from GAS... Gear Aquisition Syndrome, as it's commonly called. :cry:
