Amps:
Marshall TSL122
Marshall MG50
Roland Micro-Cube (I love this thing, I have it up here in my dorm room and it's perfect for low-volume practice)

I'm not big on effects, I just have a Boss delay and a Crybaby, neither of which I use much.

And of course, Monster cable :Spin:

As you can see, since our gear is still comparable to that of most beginning players, the reliance is mainly on skill to pull a good rehearsal sound.

 

[affinityband]

Yea thats true. would it be able to keep up with the drum noise?

 

[Ermz]

No, it can't. We have to book out rehearsal rooms with in-house amps to even have a chance.

Kind of makes me homicidal when a see little kiddies who's best attempt at music is bashing a few fifths and seeing them with their huge rectifier stacks that mommy and daddy paid for because little johnny is taking such an active interest in music.

 

[affinityband]

Yea i guess so. but to be honest, i sold everything i owned for that amp but yea it pisses me off when you see the lil pop punk kids ith theyr huge ass equipment and theyr gibson les pauls.

 

[Ermz]

Kind of coincidental that your band is called Affinity. As that's the name of mine. It happens when you use one simple word for it though, hehe.

 

[affinityband]

Really?!?!! lets be band brothers. its a good name for good bands

 

[Ermz]

Yep, good name, and there is enough space in this world for one Affinity per continent methinks.

if i truly had my pick, i'd get an H&K head. but i don't have $3000 lying around so the AVT head works. it may not be all tube, but it's probably the best head for that price range hands down. the AVT cabs suck hard, but using the head through a 1960 cab makes all the difference.

Theres a prog band called it too. such a beautiful majestic name.

ppl like you puzzle me. a guitar for thousands of $$ and playing through a sucky line6 modeller. lol. whatever floats your boat.


in the band i use my ESP and the marshall. no effects. the other guitarist has some fender strat 'iron maiden' with three humbucker and a esp explorer, since his amp died he's currently playing thru a boos distortion pedal directly into the PA.

 

[atilla000]

Guitar: Ibanez S440 with 2 dimarzio HB's and a strat SC, can't complain, I paid € 350.
Amp: Marshall Valvestate VS100R, sucks, but fine with some tweaking (on every different volume level the thing needs to be retweaked, grrr...) with 2 closed back celestion (single GT-75) cab's. (to compensate something, indeed... )
