    Just curious as to what everyones set up is. Mine isn't perfect and i won't pretend it is. I'm a student and i just try to get a decent sound. Obviously if i had more money i would have a better set up but for now this one sounds pretty nice and has all the sounds i want. My chain, in order is -

    Washburn x-50 (pretty nice guitar for the sound i want) into >
    Boss Metalzone (cause i'm a sucker for metal riffs) >
    Boss DS 1 (nice distortion pedal) >
    Boss SD 1 (cause a bit of overdrive is nice, even a clean boast works well) >
    Big Muff (cause i love the gritty sound of it) >
    Artec analog delay (cause i like to create spacey effects sometimes) >
    Fender FM212 DSP with 2 channel footswitch (i have both channels clean, chorus can be turned on and one and phaser on the other)

    they're pretty crappy, but you get what you pay for. it's alright through a tube amp, but it sounds terrible with a solid state. you're petter off going with boss, or even behringer

    '93 Special Edition American Strat with Texas Specials (for sale on adverts btw)
    Epiphone Les Paul (One of the expensive ones... Not sure of the model but it was my first real electric and I still play it regularly. It's very nice to play!)
    Jackson DK2 with EMGs
    Mexican HSS Strat
    Squire Strat (It's purple and I'm putting Kinmans on it :) )
    Then I've an Aria bass, a Squire Tele and a Rickenbacker copy which never get any play apart from the bass sometimes.

    Then pedal wise:

    Dunlop crybaby
    EHX MicroSynth
    Boss DS-1
    Boss HR-2 Harmonist
    Behringer Comp/Sustainer
    EHX Voice-Box
    Boss PH-3 Phase Shifter
    Boss EQ
    And my mates Boss Tremolo and occasionally his Boss delay.

    I usually play through a Fender Deluxe Hot-Rod (fantastic sounding amp) but I do have a Line 6 Spider III for those guilty pleasures of filthy metal distortion and cheesy effects for a little bit of guitar masturbation.

    Ibanez S670FM
    Fender Deluxe Players Strat

    Not too mad into effects, so at the moment they just go
    Morley Power Wah / Volume
    Digitech Bad Monkey (overdrive)
    Digitech Digi-delay

    I also have an old boss ME-10 and a Pod XT, but I never use either, other than the occasional noodling.

    My amp is a Peavey Studio Pro 112. I'd get a better one if I wasn't so poor.

    And of course, I have a trusty microcube.
