Show your Rack... mount!!!

NICE !!
I'm too happy with my Shuttlemax 9.2 to move anything!

Great rack !

Thanks. There are actually 14 more RUs of stuff I basically let collect dust here too. ;)

The bottom rack covers nearly all my paying gigs just fine, and a Shuttlemax would too really. The tube preamp in the middle rack sounds great for stuff I don't really do much of though, and it gets used at home nearly every day.
 
I've been goofing around with a clean/dirty rig this week:

Trying the Doug Pinnick approach, using a stereo graphic eq. The Rusty Box dirty signal goes to the EQ, with lows pulled down, and then to the Lee Jackson BP1000 preamp, with the distortion cranked.

The clean signal goes to the EQ, with highs pulled down, and then to the V-Type preamp, with gain cranked. I find that super-clean and super-dirty sound unnatural, together. Better to mix kinda-dirty with super-dirty.

The preamps go to separate sides of the power amp. Dirty highs to one cab, and lows to a convenient 186 pound 8X10 cabinet. :p

I am really enjoying using a wireless, with no pedalboard. It makes gigs so easy & fun; no more staring at my feet.
 
At one time this was my gig rig.

Glorious sound but heavy as hell!! Had to downsize and get lighter.
