As promised I took the Waves GTR Ground unit that was sent to me over to an actual guitarists studio. Mark Ephraim is one of the best musician/producers I know. His music has that sound you want from rock and roll. He has a wide range going from retro all the way to commercial pop. Take a look and listen and some of Marks projects: markephraim.com

I took a nice set of photos of some of Marks amazing gear including stuff from API, ARP, Ibanez, Adam, Akai, Roland, MXR, etc He rides the good balance of outboard gear and Pro-Tools ITB goodies.
