Live Guitar and FX Setup

Tim Scott's Live Guitar FX and Amp set-up

This is the structure my effects set up is connected in, to achieve the utmost possible palette of sounds for my solo set.

  • Sennheiser rack mounted wireless system
  • Ernie Ball volume pedal
  • Roger Mayer Vision Wha
  • Digitech Whammy Pedal
  • Soldano Supercharger G.T.O.

On The Pedal Train Pedal Board

  • Xotic Effects AC Booster
  • MXR six band EQ
  • MXR Phase 90
  • Roger Mayer Voodoo Vibe or TR2 Boss Tremlo
  • TU2 Boss Tuner
  • RV-5 Boss Digital Reverb
  • Roger Mayer Crossroads Signal director
  • EMO Systems DI Box

The Amps

  • Soldano Astroverb 16 with custom FX loop for small gigs.
  • Soldano Decatone paired with Soldano 2x12 fitted with Eminence speakers for intermediate sized gigs.
  • Or a Soldano SLO100 with slanted Soldano 4x12 fitted with Celestion Vintage 30 speakers for gargantuan gigs! Plus they all go to 11 for real... now that is one louder than 10 remember.

The Guitars

My usual gigging guitars are as follows:

  • Always a custom Jackson as my ideal number one as I can't play most of my stuff on anything else as I need 24 frets and Floyd Rose trem so typically a Soloist either the hand painted Skulls or Snake finish.
  • A Parker guitar for back up and one extra special rockin' tune in drop D.
  • The Custom Pink Fender Tele with Sims custom lights and lasers for the big finale and dance mash'ups.
