Sorry, no pics of my current rig yet - but wanted to comment on the Line6 Helix. It's an amazing device. No, it won't replace my pedals and amplifiers - in the studio at least. I picked it up this past spring in preparation for the pit orchestra season, only to discover that none of the shows I played required an electric guitar. Oh well, there is next season.

I enjoy working with amplifiers and pedals, it's that hunt for the magic tone, and I still believe that I can get closer to what I hear in my head with the individual parts. But I also know that in a pit or (heaven help me) bar gig I'm the only one that really cares, and I'm too old to be lugging two amplifiers, two cabinets, a pedal board, the Vibratone, and multiple guitars. That's just silly!!

I can get more than close enough with the Helix, and it also addresses one of my complaints about the PodXT, I have always used two amplifiers (typically something "Fender-ish" and something "Marshall-ish". The Helix lets me do that. And it includes nearly every pedal type I can think of. I do have a Pigtronix Echolution inserted in the loop, and I'm considering inserting a handful of other pedals, but no more than I can fit on my old pedal board, which is still a bit large to lug, and the whole thing defeats the purpose of a single box I can carry in a backpack.

It ain't cheap, but I heartily recommend the Helis to any gigging guitar player!

I'm pretty sure I'd replace it with the same stuff. Delay, chorus, Wah, tuner, flanger, octave and harmonizer.
 
All I ever really use though is the wah, tuner, delay and chorus.

What Brand and models would you go with?

I'm a BOSS guy. Other than the wah, that's all I have on the board. I do like Digitech and MXR FX to a degree, but BOSS gets along fine with my rig.
 
The Wah is the Zakk Wylde model from Dunlop. I've tried many different wahs, including various other sig models and custom mods, and this one kicks much ass.

Kenny, that white P-90 SG is a hon-ey! And people can go nuts over flames and quilt but give me a plain maple top on great guitar any day.

BassDaddy ! Hey man Thanks .
 
I Love my R 8 Plain top ....it's the real deal ....
I know this first hand because I used to play a 1960 Cherry Sunburst  that a friend of mine owned ...
The whole time he owned it he brought it out for me to play on ...regardless of how big or small the gig was....

Absolutely agree...
I've had the Kemper, Axe-FX, AX8, and Helix.
The UI on the Helix is (to me) by far the best.
Prefer to edit on the Helix vs. using the editing application.
 

• You can use body resonance IRs (to enhance piezo equipped acoustic or electric guitars).  No, it's no going to replaced a well-mic'd acoustic in the studio... but it's an amazing improvement for live.
• You can use snap-shots to (radically) switch rig configuration with a single switch.
• You can create IRs of your favorite cabs (mic'd the way you prefer) and load those into Helix.  That'll get you even closer to *your* sound.
• You can even use Helix to send MIDI notes/controllers.  Perfect for playing simple synth parts... or flying-in bits of audio.

 
It takes a while to get fully up-to-speed with Helix.
Once you do, and create some template type setups, it's super quick/easy to program.
Routing flexibility is also excellent.

I use a POD X3, its what the XT should have been.

My pedalboard is currently a Boss GT-8 into a Line 6 DL-4.  If it disappeared, I might not notice for days because most of my time playing is done direct into Amplitube.  

Pedal board?
We don't need no stinkin' pedal board!

Its a little hard to see but the coil cord runs direct from the Paul to the Marshall.
There are pedals on my bike though.....
T

LOL, I had a rig like that too. Coil cord into a Vibrolux.

 
 
This. 
 
 
I've never been into pedals all that much, and I never put together a board. 
 
I like and use these, which are hand-built back in Canada by a friend of mine.
 

 
I also use my trusty old POD HD and the effects on it. I own a Boss Super OD (first pedal I ever got in my life, actually) somewhere in a drawer.
 
If I had to buy one pedal, besides the above pictured Dude Screamer and Rewolver, it would be some kind of classic phaser.
 
I do sometimes miss my old wah.
 
 
 
 

I use Lovetone pedals - I was lucky to get them when they first came out and they were similar prices to most things - now people people pay stupid money for them and I mean stupid money!!

Anyway I wouldn't change them - been playing through them for a long time and I love their sound / tone
