If anyone here has ever looked for a band needing a guitarist(or bassist/drummer for that matter)youve no doubt seen the 'must have pro equipment'.

Now I'm sure this means different things to different people,but what is everyones idea of 'pro equipment' or a 'pro rig'...a big rig?A rig that sounds good,but is small?A 'rack' rig?A 'stompbox' rig?

Why I ask is(I had to sell most all my equipment before I moved to florida for $ and space issues),I would like to get a good combo instead of lugging a head and 4x12 and use a 4x12 only as needed.Heres what I had in mind...

A 5150 combo
new guitar(schecter blackjack,Ibanez RG3120 or Gibson Xplorer)
Distortion pedal like a jaques fuse blower(and keep my GNX4 for home)
some type of noise suppresor(like Boss NS2 or Hush super C)

and I almost end there but then think...

Korg rack tuner,wireless system,bbe sonic maximizer,power conditioner e.c.t.

I'm afraid I'm 'missing somthing' without the other extras...

your opinions/ideas?
