Well I've got a gig tonight, not uncommon as I play this bar at least once a month, many times 2 or 3 times a month and it's where I used to be the assistant manager and I keep a good report with them.
Anyway, that's not the dilemma. It's a blues gig, mostly blues... occasionally an old bluesier rock song thrown in. I'm debating what I want to take with me.
I always take my ES-135 and my SG. I play the ES-135 usually the whole night and keep the Sg as a backup. I also take my ugly japanese made guitar for the slide songs I do. My dilemma is amp and pedals! I usually carry the Super Reverb and my huge pedalboard. For some reason i'm getting the urge to trim it down to maybe three pedals and take the Dr. Z....hmmm, I've been going over it in my mind and can't come to a decision.
So I'm gonna list my gear, and from that list I'll take the stuff that gets voted on the most and see how the gig turns out. I know this seems rather ridiculous but I've played this gig with just a guitar and an amp before and been fine so it'll be fun to see how I get on with other people's choices for my rig
I'll get "my sound" no matter what you guys pick.
EDIT: I've decided I'm only taking four pedals and one of them is a Boss TU-2 Tuner so you guys get to pick the 3 pedals I'm gonna take with me and the amp I choose. Choose wisely!
