Crate V33H, Mesa Roadster 2x12, Schecter Devil Custom

The Crate V33H head was on clearance on MF for $180. It's all tube and the clean sound is fantastic, the distortion however is horrible and muddy. I plan on buying a Blackstar HTDistX tube pedal for distortion sounds (I hate most distortion pedals but this one sounds great). I then headed to Morgenroth to grab the Mesa Roadster 2x12 cabinet with V30s. I used to have a Recto 2x12 but found it to be too heavy. The Roadster cab is 11 pounds lighter and sounds just as good, not as "huge" as the Recto but has a super tight bass response. The Schecter is just flat out awesome, period - smooth, thick neck + EMGs = win.

Future additions include the Blackstar pedal for up front and a Tech21 Boost Delay and ISP Decimator for the effects loop. I'm also going to buy a Gator head case not only to transport the gear but use it as a stand for my 2x12 at live shows to project the sound better. I use George L's cables and Dunlop Ultex Jazz III picks.
