--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey everybody. It's been fun going through all the post and very cool to be "around" other gear heads. I thought I link pics of my rig. Any comments and questions are cool whether it positive or negative. Here's a list of gear for the rack:

Rack System Components:
Mesa/Boogie SUS-4 20 space shock mount rack system
Furman PL-PLUS power conditioner
Shure U4S uhf wireless receiver
with Shure U1 uhf wireless transmitter (qty. 2)
Korg DTR-1 tuner
Dunlop DCR-ISR Crybaby Wah system
with Dunlop DSR-IFC foot controller (qty. 2)
Rane PE 17 5-band parametric eq with adjustable Q.
Engl E570 preamp
Active Thermal Management Exhaust Fan
Digitech GSP2101 LE Studio Tube preamp/processor
with Johnson J12 foot controller
BBE 862 Sonic Maximizer processor/restorer
Active Thermal Management Exhaust Fan (qty. 2)
Mesa/Boogie Stereo Simul-Class 2:90 power amp (qty. 2)
Custom 1 space patch panel (with 4 Speakon, 2 midi, and 2 locking TRS connections)
Furman AR-Pro voltage regulator

Guitars:
Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Fender Stratocaster
*JB Jr. pickups in neck and bridge positions
*Chrome Sprizels locking tuners
*Bone nut
*Tone controls bypassed

40th Anniversary Fender Stratocaster
*Warmoth 22 fret scalloped neck
*JB Jr. pickups in neck and bridge positions
*Chrome Sprizels locking tuners
*Bone nut
*Tone controls bypassed

Speaker Cabinets:
Marshall JCM 800 Lead 1960 A 4 x 12 speaker cabinet (qty. 2)
Marshall JCM 800 Lead 1960 B 4 x 12 speaker cabinet
Marshall JCM 900 Lead 1960 B 4 x 12 speaker cabinet

Sorry this list is so long, but there is quite a bit.

Every guitar I own gets a bone nut installed right away. It's made a remarkable diffence every time. Open strings sound more balanced with those fretted - that 'tubby' attack that the plastic (or graphite) nut imparts to open strings is gone.
