That perfect tone in your head
 

Have you found it yet?

To me, there is a perfect guitar tone in my head. The perfect combination of guitar, wood, pickups, electronics, amp, room acoustics... etc...

I dont know if I will ever find it, but I keep trying.

Right now I love the tone my '62 reissue Stratocaster is getting playing through a Line 6 Delay Modeler of a Echoplex, with an AC Booster pedal for just a little grit, going into my Peavey Classic 30 amp.
It has JJ and NOS GE tubes in it, and a Celestion Greenback speaker.
The missing link is a good reverb. The Peavey reverb electronics sucks donkey ****.

Jackson or ibanez,EMG,Floyd Rose(for that perfect dive bomb!),GHS string's. All threw a Marshall full stack(With a little bit of gain)
With a bunch of screaming fans in the background:)

Les Paul through a Fender Tweed- Vibrolux or Bassman.

'50s Tele thru Black faced super reverb.

Gretsch 6120 thru tweed Bassman.(Like your amp choice Glockerel)

My perfect tone
 

A 1979 Gibson Les Paul Custom with a TC G force rack into a Fender 1/2 stack bottom and PV Satch's head.

Whatever the hell this man did on his first album.

That, IMO, is the best guitar tone ever.

(I know about what the setup was, but damn it sounded nice)
