Fender Mexi Strat and an Ovation Celebrity, each of which i've had for 20+ years. I used to play through a Fender Deluxe 112 but i also have a little Gorilla amp. I have several effects pedals and wahs, an old DOD multi effects pedal and an even older Art Xtreme mutli effects pedal, neither of which have been used in quite some time.
I tend to do things in blocks of time, play music, mess with computers, play games online so my guitars have mostly been sitting around collecting dust but about a week ago i got the urge to start playing again (been playing off and on since '84). Back in '17 i bought some software from IK Multimedia called Amplitube 4 (which i had installed on my old PC), so i decided to install it on the new comp i built back in December. I use a Focusrite Scarlett Solo to play the guitar through my PC.
I just ordered a new guitar a couple days ago and it should be here friday. I had a Floyd Rose installed on my strat and replaced the bridge pickup with a humbucker (did that myself) and over time one of the mounting screws loosened up, as well as all the problems keeping a double-locking tremolo in tune...blahblahblah...and the humbucker must be ground wrong or something because i always have a buzz in it. Anyway...the intonation is off and i didn't really feel like putting all that work into getting the strat up to par so i decided it was time for a new 'tar. Friday night when i get home, the shredding will commence in force with this.
