My Garcia rig -> Epic Diatribe -> Other Stuff

Postby playingdead » Wed Mar 26, 2008 2:24 pm

A friend just turned me on to this site, I've posted over on Gearheads for a while. Great info here.

I play lead in a band in Boston called Playin' Dead. My rig is:

Lefty Resurrection Tiger guitar (DiMarzio Super II pickups, CAE original buffer amp, onboard effects loop) ->

Mid 70s Twin Reverb head with blackface mods ->

Hard Truckers 2X12 cabinet with JBL E-120s

Effects: Vox Clyde Wah, Holy Grail reverb

Effects loop chain: Q-Tron -> Boss OD2-r overdrive ->
MXR Phase 100 -> Boss Octave -> Boss DD6 delay -> Boss EQ (set flat with slight boost to even up the effects loop signal with the non-looped signal).

Samples can be heard at http://www.playingdead.net ...

Peace,
Vic

Anyway, nice rig! I need to catch you guys sometime.

hey.. you're a great guitarist. I've watched your videos, even playing along..lol you've got a great feel for the music. joe

Great Rig...

I play something similar. I'm 90% through my own custom Cripes style bolt guitar.. I was using the Qtron and recently got an EMMA Discumbobulator and am in love.

I'll have to venture off the island and catch you guys. from the vids. and clips it looks like a great show and a good crowd.

vic,
great website. lots of great music, and I love that u didn't use youtube, so I could actually see the videos on my work computer. Cheers!!

You guys have a great sound. i hope to catch one of your shows next time I make it back home to New England.

Sounds great. Not to be a ball buster but doesnt that one horn on the body look off? It looks to fat and not carved in deep enough. Anyone else see this?
