Rocktron Chameleon / Mesa 2:90 Guitar rig - Lead Sound 1

Guitar:

Ibanez RG7620 guitar with a DiMarzio Evo 7 in the bridge

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.
