I've been putting together a new rig over the past few weeks.  I've ordered most of it and still need to get all the pieces in place.  Here's what I've got at the moment:

Guitars:

Ibanez AS120, Fender American Strat w/ Custom 57's for pickups.

Amps:

1.  Fender Hot Rod (will soon be my back up)

2.  Carvin Tube 100 power Amp
    SMS Classic Tube Preamp (on the way.  It's being custom made and I'm like a 9 year old waiting for christmas on this thing!  Check out their site: http://www.sarnomusicsolutions.com/products/ctp.html  )
    Avatar G212H Cab with Vintage 30's (also on the way)

Pedals:

Boss Tuner
Electro-Harmonix Qtron Envelope Filter
RAT Distortion
MXR Phase 90
Dunlop Cry Baby
MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay

I need to add a compressor and another distortion.  I'm about 99% sure I'll be trying to grab a TS9.  I'm not sure which compressor I want.  I'm leaning towards the MXR Dyna Comp.  I kinda need to keep it under $100.  Any advice on this?

Anyhow, what do ya think?  I'm pretty happy!

I personally didn't like the DynaComp when I owned one, but I've heard others here say they like them.

I have the Script Reissue DynaComp and Phase 90 in my rig and love them both.

Amps: '65 Princeton Reverb, Clark '59 Bassman clone

The never dynacomps are terrible IMHO, check out guitar center's used gear section for the EHX soul preacher compressor. Although I hate guitar center with a burning passion they have pretty great deals. I think the soul preacher sounded pretty good, just be sure how to use it. I saw one on there for $14.
Guitars: Gibson ES-339 and LP studio w/ grovers and WCR Fillmores. Simon and Patrick Showcase Rosewood CW, PRS SE Semi Hollow w/ mods, modded Ibanez MC300NT
Amps: Groove Tubes Soul-O 45, Fuchs ODS 50 mod - EVM12L, Emi RW&B, and Weber Cali cabs
Ardx20 w/ Amaze0 in the loop.
