Live I take a SansAmp British character pedal.

How is that working out for you? Are they convincing enough? Better/worse than GT2? I'm using multi fx modellers at the moment but might go the analog stomp modeller way. I'm getting a Tech 21 Power Engine 60 soon too.

It works out well. I think it sounds more convincing than the GT2, but obviously you can only get a Marshall tone out of the character. Sansamps always sound a bit Sansamp-y, but I happen to like this.

Preapare to be underwhelmed !  :lol:

The outboard Reverb is not usually needed , but there just in case. I also have an I.S.P Decimator if required. It is usually just the pictured guitar, amp - and yellow duster . :)

My rig is as pictured below, plus a power distributer, powered PA speaker, and midimate floorboard. I overestimated the number of rack slots I'd need ;)

Well I'm currently using a Diezel Einstein combo and I have to say that it is utterly utterly amazing. (I would say that of course)  8)

Here's mine - Mesa Boogie Express 5:50 head with Mesa 2x12 Roadster cab. Effects are pretty minimal - just an Xotic BB Preamp, Ducan TwinTube Mayhem distortion and a Dunlop Zakk Wylde wah.

the nos cab is warm, wide and very full sounding. Its also sounding pretty same wherever you step around your stack not like cheap cabs that sound awesome in front of them and just weak when you go some footsteps ahead. Also it works good with V30 but you can have it loaded with g12k, greenbacks, g12h, v30 or eminence tonker /governor.

They are inded built like accoustics with a separation inside. For info the cab on the picture is an oversized 2*12. Good stuff, solid built, good price used and ok price looking on high end brands (a nos 4*12 is around  1000 euros new against the same for mesa that is about 1200). I had a mesa 2*12 and a framus on the same head before the nos cab. The nos wins hand down, better projection, more open sounding, holds lows same as mesa but delivers good sounds on low volumes and the cleans are really good unless the mesa cab that made cleans sound really boomy and cold to my tastes.
