Re: Dream Rigs, Arena Style

Part of me would want the David Gilmour style rig!!!! Then part of me would want what i have now.... My big rig i could use in small stadiums no problem! Also a huge part of me would like Townshends set up for various years... Hiwatt stacks, SG's and LP's.... Shecter teles... I love his current set up of heavily modded/custom made Clapton Strats, Fender Vibro kings and a few pedals.... but the key part is the Fishman bridge runs to a Fender Acoustisonic amp and Pete has a blend pot on his strats so he can play thru both the Vibrokings with the Lace Sensors and the Acoustisonics with the 2post Fishman bridges
