Rocktron Chameleon / Mesa 2:90 Guitar rig - Clean Sound

Guitar:

Ibanez RG7620 guitar with a DiMarzio Evo 7 in the bridge, DiMarzio Blaze in the neck

Rack:

PreSonus Blue Tube preamp
Rocktron Chameleon preamp
TC Electronic G-Force
Mesa 2:90 Simul-Class power amp

The cab is the Recto Standard from a few years back when they made the straight cab with the slanted speakers. Great cab, tons of bass.

The idea behind the rig is that the Chameleon is a great, tight-sounding preamp, and the Mesa is a powerhouse tube amp. The tube voicings "deep" and "modern" are engaged on the 2:90, the amp really crushes when you have those modes turned on. I use the Blue Tube mic pre to "push" the chameleon a little and give more of a tube sound to the preamp. The Chameleon I use for tone, I don't really use the effects on it much. The G-Force adds the effects.

This is pretty much my holy grail of rigs at the moment, so I figured I'd post some clips. Please excuse the sloppy playing, this was all done kinda spur of the moment.

my fault haha, i meant to say did you check out the seymour duncan blackouts before you got the evo's, or have they not come out yet?

[vlupone]

I'm actually putting blackouts in one of my 7s. I'm looking forward to using them too.

sweet man, if you don't mind, let me know which one's you like better. or better yet, which one's aren't too buzzy and sensitive if you know what i mean.

sweet setup man!! I have the rg 7321 playing through a dual rectifier with a mesa closed back 4x12 cab. Did you look into the dimarzio evo 7's before you got the sd's? I like the sound of passive pickups and need some advice about the seymour duncans, trying to clean that b string up, and i've heard the evo's will do this.
