    Ok guys. I am sick of hauling tube amps in and out of venues and setting up MultiFX and pedals and blah blah to play to drunkards.

    SO!

    I had my heart set on a line 6 vetta II where i could justs have it and its pedal flight cased, open it up, plug in and there ya go.

    But i want to keep my options open so here are my requirements.

    Clean
    Crunch (Just a bit of grit)
    Distortion
    Lead

    All of these must have access to the usual chorus delay and reverb just in case i need them.

    I have though about the pod xt live into powered monitor
    Line 6 vetta II
    the new X3 live


    What else?
    I dont mind going for tube amps but i want you to come up with a light, sturdy and versatile rig for around 1500 euro. Get creative!

    Rack mounted GT-8/POD, midi floorboard/Line 6 board, something like this going through this

    Probably well over budget though :pac:

    Well im gigging a JMP1 anyway so its similar setup to that. I would probably go for the floor versions of those anyway tbh. I wouldnt mind that fractal audio AXE fX

    I was thinking rack mounted just for the convience of one midi controller doing everything. I'd still like a TC Electronics G-System though.

    Ah right! was a good night, dont really remember the bands but i remember a few decent ones alright. That night i just ran a pod XTL to the desk and it got me by. The pa was nothing serious and i didnt tweak it but it did the job. I will consider just using it the whole time and dialing it in with our PA. Any reccomendations?
