What's your giggin' rig?

Ok, I bite. Explain the guitar mounted harmony switch. Pictures needed!

Taylor DN7 w Baggs Anthem SL

Sounds great.

Guitar is usually my J-15 with Baggs M1A or Taylor 320 with Baggs M80

TC Harmony Singer and Radial PZ-DI into Yamaha Stagepas 600i PA

That's covers me for pretty much any gig. I'm looking at getting a TC Play Acoustic or Boss VE-8 to simplify the set up further. It can't decide which.

Had the first performance with the new rig yesterday.
Provided accompaniment for a trio of Sopranos at church.

Larrivee OM-02 with an LR Baggs Lyric, LR Baggs Para Di, direct to PA.

Also Revo cocobolo strap, Thalia Capo (black chrome & Rosewood), and Thalia 1.4mm jazz pick. Monster cable.

Guitar with K&K and Seymour Duncan MagMic..

Each has it's own output jack going to a separate channel on a Headway EDB-2.

Blend the pickups on the preamp and send it to the house.

For most house concerts I use no amplification at all.
When traveling I use whatever house PA and mic are on hand.
Around town I use an AER amp with and AKG 214 microphone.

Solo Instrumental guitar:
Guitar: Nylon Hybrid Guitar and Taylor GC

Signal Chain:
Boss TU3, Fishman, Tonedeq, TC Electronics Flashback DD, TC Electronics Ditto x2

Amplification:
Yamaha DB10 and TC Electronics Voicesolo FX150 as a monitor. We use my friend's Fishman SA220 for small to medium size venues in our instrumental duo.

For a small Open Mic I ran:
I used my DBR10 and TC monitor, but add a Samson MDR6 mixer and a Shure sm58 and Heil PR20. Not glamorous, but easy setup- tear done and sounds good.

Looks like the rest of us are overdoing it. :-)

Well, I'm mostly playing to pretty small quiet audiences, and I don't sing, so it's pretty easy for me to go simple most of the time. But my guitar does have a pickup and I do use it a few times a year. When I play at the NAMM show I use the pickup into the Bose tower thing that Santa Cruz rents, but I mostly hate the way that sounds.

Taylor 414ce or Mahogany GA Custom>TC Helicon Voicelive 3>Fishman SA330X

[GibbyPrague]

Gibson with Matrix infinity UST - Aura Spectrum DI - Play Acoustic - G3 Efffects unit - AER compact 60 or PA. Also have a percussive stomp box sometimes with me.

Here's my acoustic board. I'm sure it's overkill, but it gives me options. Powered by a Cioks DC-5. Rolls is a headphone amp for the Alclair IEM's. Stereo DI's direct to sound system.

[Olorin]

Gibson Hummingbird Pro (best dynamics I've ever played on an amplified acoustic), Breedlove Studio Concert 12 string, Audix OM-5, TC Helicon Play Acoustic with 3 button extra switch, Beat Buddy with 2 button extra switch, QSC Touchmix 16, Bose L1 Model 2.

I just used this Bose thing for the first time last night at a solo show and it is unbelievable. I just picked it up used and it is as advertised. Actually a bit too powerful for my needs last night but I'd rather have too much than too little. People in attendance said it was crystal clear.
