I find it interesting to hear about guitar/amp combinations people see as the best. It's a wide ranging debate though I always seem to find cool new combinations I would not have thought of. As a starting point, my playing preferences are rather limited... there simply is not a clean channel for me. Reverb, who uses that? Chorus? Never heard of it. My musical tastes range (yes, this is a relative term for many who have a broader appreciation of musical styles) from punk to hardcore to melodic death metal, think Bad Religion to Hatebreed to In Flames, with a hint of Deftones thrown in for "style". In this world, I find myself gravitating to a small range of tones to which I keep returning:
SC594 Soapbar + boosted JCM800
DC594 + Peavey 5150/6505
Tremonti/SC594 + Soldano SLO100 (current favorite, especially for D-Standard/Dropped C)
The Tremonti+SLO100 is an amazingly inspirational combination for me. I love the tightness of the low end and the way it cuts through the mix when I am playing along to my favorite songs. As I spent all of my allowance (according to my wife) on my guitars, my amp experimentation is limited to amp sims (mainly via Amplitube) so something like the MT15 may not be something I could try out. What are some other PRS/high gain combinations people prefer? Is there any love for a particular Mesa Boogie or is someone rocking a Silver Jubilee? Bonus points for any rig pics!
