Wow, you guys have some complicated setups. Tone is important to me to, but our gigs are both acoustic and electric. I couldn't fathom a 5-6 piece chain for just the acoustic stuff. I truly respect the search for optimal tone, but I'm unwilling to put in the time and money to achieve sonic nirvana. Good enough for the public works for me.

I play both acoustic and electric live as well. My acoustic chain is longer than my electric, although that's because the electric gets one box with multi-effects and amp modeling. The acoustic chain isn't that long (for playing live): Composite Acoustics GX > Fishman Aura pickup > Grace Alix preamp > Mooer Yellow compressor > TC Hall of Fame 2 reverb PA, if I bring my own, is Behringer XR18 mixer to QSC (K2.10s or CP8, depending on size of gig). In the studio, it's Guitar > Microphone. Much simpler. |

For me, it's a matter of: 1) More effects/pedals = more things that can go wrong. I prefer KISS method. 2) Size limitation of our vehicle prohibits all but essential gear. 3) Prolonged setup time when using more stuff. On gigs, time is money and I prefer fast setup and breakdown. I tried the large pedalboard route and it just didn't suit my style or philosophy for gigging. FWIW, my next purchase is likely to be a Pod Go so I can get decent tone sans amp.

Any good single source pickup - Grace Alix - PA (or amp)
Any good dual source pickup - Grace Felix - PA (or amp) I use these preamps with 8 different pickups systems and the work great with all of them (acoustic guitars: Trance Anthem, Schertler Dyn G, B-Band 2.2 XOM, Fishman Infinity Matrix, and LR Baggs Anthem, and for my resonators: Krivo, Highlander, National). |

I have an interesting chain i think!
Thumb pick, Gibbo all hog J45, into a Boss AD2 with just a fraction of resonance nothing else, that goes into a Digitech Trio+ into AER compact 60, I run a cable from the Trio into a powered monitor for drums and bass. But also i run a Ditto stereo looper into the effects loop on the AER then run a cable from that to a Fishman L/B mini, so i get the loops coming from both amps and also the loops from the Trio in both amps. Sounds great and is amazing fun! |

Fingers, Strings, sometimes a pick. When live at a show I'm a PA guy. I never bought an acoustic amp. Though I've kind of been looking at them lately. I tend to like the sound of a 15" wedge. I like a chorus. so My Acoustic pedalboard goes From guitar to Peterson Strobe-O-Stomp. Morley Lil' Alligator Volume. Carl Martin Classic Chorus, Radial JDI, Out to mixer. If doing my own sound. Allen & Heath Mix Wizard. Depending on the venue and ambient reverb may add just a touch of reverb from mixer. Out to JBL 815 wedge.

Blue Chip CT-55, Cole Clark Angel 2, Bose S1 Pro.
Doesn't get any simpler or better than that. For me, at least. |
