sorta curious as to how this will turn out

Mesa boogie mark 2C+ coli with anvil travel case- 2500$
Marshall jvm 205h- 1200
Fender american strat 2002 Nitro finish- 700
Alvarez masterwork acoustic- 700
1960A marshall cab- 400
Marshall classic greenback cab- 400
MIM black strat- 500
Tremonti Power wah-120
Mxr 10band eq- 120
1980's Mxr chorus pedal 120

Bought everything but the pedals and the acoustic used

grand total -6760

So thats where all my 10$ an hour pay checks go to
 
I saved for a long time and bought a motorcycle a long time ago. I sold it a while later and bought my first real rig (Triaxis/2:90). Thats the last time I spent "real" money for an amp. I have traded straight across for everything since then. Everything else I do the 4 easy payment plan from Zzounds.com.

wow, you really counted every last thing in your rig basically :lol: :D
 
With my guitars I amp and goodies I am on about 6 an a half grand UK £'s, with another grand to spend on the rig never mind guitars I am looking at.

Ive owned and sold a few bits over the years. Last 2 amps I had were a Mesa Tremoverb 2x12 combo an a Laney LC30 and previouisly sold a Mesa V-Twin pedal.
I started like everyone with a crappy Marshall MG30 then upgraded to a Line 6 Spider 2 with a cheap Tanglewool Les Paul copy that I butcherd a couple of years ago.
Keep upgrading till I can afford the gear I want to try and achieve my perfect tone! Atm my amp is about as top of the food chain as it gets but would love to A/B it with a Soldano SLO or a Diezel VH4 for tone comparison.

I refuse to post my gear costs as my wife may inadvertently view this post and ask me for a divorce

After accumulating gear for 32 years, the real total would be obscene. :eek: My wife is somewhat used to the stuff around here, but if a price tag for acquisition were composed, someone would be crapping bunnies. And I might be one of them. :mrgreen: I plead the fifth amendment...I refuse to answer as it may incriminate me. :wink:
 
Roadster $2100
Rectifier cab $1000
Gibson LP Studio- $1400
Schecter c1+ $600

About 55-60k. it's my job but. so it doesn't count. ahha

I need half a basketball court to take the "family photo" really a stupid amount of $h!t.

The only thing that hurts is the insurance. just got my yearly bill. $1100 for all the stuff i just play with this is about $45ks worth . :-(
 
I'm going to ignore classical guitars and recording equipment because I don't see them as part of my "electric guitar rig."

Mesa Boogie Roadster 2x12 Combo - $850
Ibanez RG2228GK w. White EMGx's - $1100
Mogami 10 Foot Cable - $50 or so
Total = $2000

I don't use pedals or rack gear, I just plug straight into the amp.
 
Most of it is in the signature. All in about 12k. My wife is not a fan of the cost, but I think it's necessary to keep me sane and keep our marriage together. Overall she's great about it and comes out to see us play. If anyone has any suggestions on how to bring home a new Les Paul without pissing off the wife I'm all ears.
