  • Travel Rig / Practice

    So My new job has me traveling a lot and staying in hotels
    so last month I experimented with a travel rig

    I took my Epi Hummingbird, since it is inexpensive and plays so well

    but it is a bit fragile and I worried about leaving it in the van with the temperature extremes up the East Coast
    it would be freezing in the mornings and 80 F come noon

    so I have set up a solid body rig
    with my RG2
    A PockRock from Ammoon w/ Headphones

    this all fits in a single rectangle guitar case
    has a drum loop for practicing my scales and timing
    tons of effects and a tuner

    the RG has my JB/Jazz with the triple shot rings for a versatile rig

      Cool setup. I would love to have a guitar on the road but it is not necessary for me. I only travel around once per quarter and usually just a couple of days per trip. Plus when I travel for business there is little downtime.

        Its a cheap multi effects
        with a drum loop
        Which i found important

        I just need a clean sound for practice




        my job has me away for weeks at a time

        May and June i may be in Canada, not sure yet

                    It's cheap If it gets broken I won't feel bad

                    I tried it and it's got usable sounds
                    The effects are not great but workable

                      For travel, I use my Steinberger and a FlyRig. Pretty small setup.

                        I'm using a Zoom G1 Four for that purpose and it's good enough through headphones. +1 for looper, drums, and running on AA batteries.

                          Love that guitar and color. Kind of a cross between blue and purple. And nice clean design. Sweet!

                            I used to use a Korg Pandora back on deployments with a cheapo tele that fit in my locker. I found it a couple years ago and remember it sounding a lot...better... in 2002.

                              Updated my Travel Rig. The Moorer knobs are lower and fit better in the case
                              soundsa are good
