This is pretty much it. My main guitar is my McCurdy. Usually I play it through the Clarus SL-R into 1 or 2 of the Raezers Edge cabinets. Occasionally, I’ll use both Clarus heads and run in stereo out of the Lehle. I don’t use that many pedals, it depends on the gig. The board changes from time to time the mainstays are the Polytune2 (mini), Timefactor, Parallel SW II, Boss CE3 and the Rat.

Recording Gear & Software

When it comes to recording, my setup is about as simple as you can get gear wise. I’m not an engineer, so don’t ask. I do know how to record a good guitar sound. I prefer to mic up my cabinets but a lot of things I’ve been asked to do have involved going in direct with the guitar. Then using some kind of modeling software or it gets re-amped.
