Let's see some ugly rigs!

Hey everybody!

I was just admiring how truly hideous my rig looks, and was wondering who else around here is proud of just how aesthetically un-pleasing their setup is. I'll start it off.

Not so fast, JimmyM.

I vote for Brian Gibson's rig from around 2001-2002



Edit: And while it may be ugly (gorgeous), it sounds like the hand of god giving zeus a throat punch.

I gotta say, ryco's rig just looks well used. And that honest working guy's photoshoot methodology: no overly prissy designer dropcloth behind a pampered little boutique 110 that's never been outside it's padded slipcover cover even during a 15 minute gig break. No vaselined lense and suggestive softbox lighting. Just the raw goods, ready to dynamite stumps or pull pig iron across the backlot.
