One thing I've always been curious about: when guitarists have a rig like this (both complex and expensive), do they bring along an exact replica of the entire rig? The chance for catastrophic failure in front of a large audience, while likely minute, would be frightening. I wonder if having a backup is something that is frequently done by guitarists. I suppose its all based on risk preference...
When you get to a certain level, yes, having backups for everything is common place. For example, Brian May of queen has 9 Vox AC30s that he takes with him on tour, i think he's only ever using three at one time though. Angus Young has a couple of backup Marshall SLP amps incase any of his main amps go down aswell. But when you're only playing small venues, you'll generally only have one or two amps total with you at a gig because more often than not, you're the one having to carry it all and set it all up.
Pure gold!!
Thank you Adi.
I'm looking to build up a rack system myself. Where do I even start?
TDGinge Saving up some cash. Doing it properly isn't cheap!
TDGinge your comment is 4 years old, so have you built your rack yet mate?
Anywhere I can read the schematics, how it's wired up and such?
