I've been wanting to do it for ages, and finally went for it. For my own personal preferences at live gigs, nothing beats good pedals into a tube amp, except maybe the same pedals into two amps as a wet/dry setup. Nothing against multi-FX boxes, but they just don't do it for me. So, I always wanted a rig with all the pedals I like most, with a switching system so I could put them all in their own loops, and then have presets turn on whatever combo of pedals I wanted for a specific song or part of a song.
For a long time I wanted the Voodoo Labs rig, but once I became a fan of That Pedal Show on YouTube, I was pretty quickly drooling over the GigRig G2 system, made by Daniel Steinhardt from That Pedal Show. Started saving my gig money, and now here we are.

So, basically we have the Gigrig G2, which is powered by their modular system that allows you to have a much or as little power connection as you need. The G2 comes with their "Generator," which delivers an obscene amount of power if needed. From there you buy one of their "Distributor" boxes, which comes with 6, trim-to-length power cables. You can buy more Distributor boxes as needed, or, in my case one or two of their "Isolator" boxes so that certain pedals can be isolated from others to avoid hum/ground issues. I also had to buy a special "TimeLord" box to power the Strymon Timeline, since it requires a bunch more power than the Isolators normally put through.
The loops are:
1) Crybaby Wah
2) MXR script reissue Phase 90
3) [Empty, but will be a compressor]
4) Fulltone OCD
5) Vertex Dynamic Distortion (germanium fuzz and TS-9 hybrid)
6) Mad Professor Twimble (Dumble-esque pedal)
7) TheGigRig "Humdinger" (fastened underdeath) that allows for the wet/dry rig
8) TC Corona chorus
9) MXR Carbon Copy analog delay
10) Strymon Timeline
*) TC Polytune 3 (Tuner has its own output)
*) Strymon MultiSwitch (to right of wah pedal) that controls Looper function of Timeline
The G2 can be programmed so that any of the switches (which can be arranged in multiple banks) can turn on one or more loops at once. Or, any button can be in "stomp-box mode" so it only adds (or subtracts) one particular pedal to an active loop. I have one footswitch set to mute everything and activate the tuner, another that turns my amp's own tremolo circuit on and off, and another that sends tap-tempo info to the Strymon.
The Humdinger's Isolated output goes to the "dry" amp, which is the AC-15, and the G2's main output goes to the "wet" amp, which is the '68 Custom DR. I have the G2 set so that the tails of the Timeline delay still continue to sound in the wet amp even after I switch back to a dry preset. Too cool.
My initial plan was to replace the TC chorus with a Chase Bliss Warped Vinyl, which is an amazing chorus/vibrato pedal, but hearing what I have now in context with the two amps, I'm in no rush to change it.
