Electric guitar:
Ibanez Roadstar II, RS205WH (1983)
Several modifications by myself:
- original pick-up switch (5 positions) replaced
with
separate
switches per pick-up, gives me the extra
combination
between the bridge and neck pick-up.
- single-coil bridge pick-up replaced with a
humbucker.
- extra switch added (between the phase-switch
and
the
jack-plug) for a cable-driver (enables the use
of
cables
longer than 6 meters without losing any high
frequencies).
- original black volume and tone dials replaced
with
white
ones.

Line6 Toneport UX2
Double PreAmp for guitar, bass or microphones
(incl. 48V phantom power) with sound modeling
via the Gearbox-software. With this preamp you
can not just convert an analog signal from e.g.
the guitar to a digital signal, but you can
also model the sound to your liking, by specifying
the amplifier brand, the type of speaker cabinet
and the make and placing of the recording mike.
Oh yes: and a wide range of stompbox effects
as well.
This will provide you with a broad range of
guitar sounds.
