Love that amp too..!In my quest for being in a happy place that doesn't rely on pedals, this morning I pared down the Holey Board to what I see as bare essentials for what I play:

In fact, all three are optional: the tuner could be replaced by a clip-on (which have come of age to be gig-worthy), I don't play any solos yet, and I've yet to use the drum/bass backing at an open mic.
I do intend to start adding some backing to my playing out (and the looper is useful for a solo act), and when I start some soloing stuff there's really only need for one "lead tone" and the Dude delivers that in abundance so stacking OD pedals is overkill (for me). I like a tuner that's powered so there's no chance of the little watch battery in the clip-on dying on me, and the buffer is a good thing to have because the TRIO+ is a digital pedal.
WOW..! Just Beautiful..! Congrats..!After a recent NGD, I'm now the proud (and extremely happy) owner of three Tom Andersons. They are just wonderful instruments and slowly I've started selling off my other guitars. My first was the blue Cobra T in 2015 followed by the red Drop S last year and the Drop T a couple weeks ago. My pedalboard is now a Helix and my amps, well they are sort of just furniture at this point.

My new goto set up. Just put the Bigsby on my Epi Les Paul and am quite enjoying it. Love the new Quilter MicroPro Mach 2. In the past I was a confirmed tube amp guy, but now the Quilter has made me a believer [guess that's why my Nace Pro-18 is for sale]. Love the new amp and Livemaster effects.
That looks like a separate head and speaker cab
Here is my rig.@Rancid, did you get the combo 12" speaker or the head and cab? Do these quilters do clean Fender sounds good?
The Mach 2 is limited to 100W output, but internally it runs on 400 Watts for clean headroom you can't believe.
Nope. It is what Pat Quilter told me in an e-mail some time back. Just now sent him an email asking him to provide more detail. Here is his response:Can you explain that in more detail?
Here is my rig.
Yes.Are those both 12" speakers?
I'm late to this, but she's a real beauty!Coupla gear pix today. They have their own threads but I see this thread as a kind of documentary consolidating everyone's toys.
First is the latest incarnation of the Holey Board with the added ability to handle aux in for when I'm practicing with videos or backing tracks and have to keep it quiet. The TRIO+ supplies the phones out. I don't plan to use the RC3 as a looper since the TRIO+ already handles that. As just an avenue to get aux in it's hella overkill but I had it available so there it is.

The other is the latest (and hopefully greatest and reasonably stable) incarnation of Corbie, my Memphis 339 and current favorite axe. Tried a Bigsby B7 that I didn't care for so went to the B5 instead.
