Best Modeling Rig Winner JiveTurkey


	JiveTurkey wrote: Here's my entry: Guitar: Bumblebee Strat---13 pin cable to board Pedalboard: GR55 for trumpets, HX Stomp for modeling/fx/IR player/routing/amp channel switching on the VII. Various boosts in front of amp. Today it's a Grid Slammer but I am thinking by Saturday's gig I might be doing the borrowed Bion boost? I can run this board in 4cm with the VII, the Badlander or straight into studio monitors or a wedge (though I would prefer not). Amps: VII or BL. Currently going with the VII but both are Cabs: 2 x 112 cabs loaded with Celestion F12 speakers allows me to run full modeling chain, traditional amps (with IRs in the signal chain) and guitar synth through the same set of speakers. Plus I love the the dual 112 mini stack vibe I've got other stuff modeling wise (duh!) but this does what I need for gigging \m/
