My home studio !

 2023-24, new pics

I really like multiEfxs, you can see Digitech RP500, Zoom G5, Valeton GP200, Zoom G3Xn and a Behringer FCB1010 midi controller for my V-amp pro and V-ampyre Head

My guitars (the Tele is in cousin's house and the classical is lent to a friend's daughter)

Monster drumset (mesh heads) made by me, on an single Alesis DM10 module.

20" kick, 14" snare, 2X12" toms, 2X14" floor toms. 

Lots of crashes, rides, china, etc. About 12 e-cymbals there! Half cymbals are 2 zone and the rest are single zone.

My extra Alesis DM10 set with self made big mesh pads
All pads (snare, toms, floor toms) are 12", kick pad is 14". Original Alesis cymbals.
Great set, great sounds.

 

Vocal monitor, handmade, 15" woofer and a tweeter with a cap (discrete highs only) 

and a DIY doorbel with light! 

The red DI is the Behringer GI-100 cab sim DI, always useful.

 

FCB1010 to control V-ampyre and the mighty Zoom G3n.

The little purple Donner cab sim pedal works well with the Zoom!

Digitech RP500, great DI sound straight to mixing board and a great acoustic sim also!

 

Bass system with Behringer bass v-amp pro, EP2000 power amp and a 15" aluminum speaker with horn. The same power amp drives a monster 18"subwoofer that is not visible.

The 1602 mixer serves us well when we rehearse with headphones, provides the bassist with the desired mix of the master mix and the bass. The blue V-amp pro (3 of 4) is a backup for lots of uses.

 

Behringer XENYX 2442FX USB mixing board.

 

 

Marshall 412 UK old quality cabinet with Behringer V-ampyre head.

 

 

 

Power amps, TA2400 for main mix and EP2500 for vocals and drums.

A DIY footswitch for my v-amp2 (with DIN 6 pin plug)is seen at the bottom of the pic.

 Heavy duty self-made desk. PC with 32" screen, The Βox 8" speakers along with (floor) Behringer B1520 wooden 15" speakers all driven by t.amp 1050 power amp. A Boss Katana 100 is also next to to the desk with my live v-amp pro (1 of 4).  The other v-amp pro (2 of 4) is permanently on the desk.

 My 3 Asio Handcrafted guitars, made in 2015

Greek Alder bodies and MightyMite necks w/Jumbo frets, with Iron Gear Hot Slag pickups, push-pull split (on volume pot) and 500uf treble bleed capacitor. I like them a lot!

 The Asio handcrafted blue Tele style guitar, also made in 2015, has an EBAY neck but I changed the nut. The pickups are the great and affordable Vanson Hex pole hot humbuckers. Also push-pull split (on volume pot) and 500uf treble bleed capacitor

Roland Hybrid Drumset, March of 2014

TD-6 KW module, Roland PD125 12 " snare  ,  Millenium 12" and 10" toms with improved sensor system, 20" bass drum with piezo sensor and double bass pedal, two 14" floor toms with sensors inside, 3 Roland and 1 Millenium crashes-rides, Roland hihat , lots of mods  and extra strenghtening legs on the rack.

Upgrade to Roland TD12, October of 2019
Better sound and feel, lots of cymbals, with split cable (I used 100Kohm resistor)

And this is the living-room setup! V-amp pro with Behringer FCB1010 midi pedalboard, Laney UK GC30 and my Washburn X50q with EMG 81/85. The V-amp, Laney and FCB1010 were bought used but in brand new condition from 3 different absolutely perfect sellers from www.noiz.gr , at a fraction of the original price, many thanks to Christos, Giorgos and Thymios!

Fender Strat pickguard by me

I got me a new S-S-S pickguard from Fender, two 500k pots, a 5-way switch, two Seymour Duncan Hot Rails, two DPDT switches (for series-parallel for every pickup) and an original Fender pickup.



Then I put them all together!


The white MIM Fender is a new guitar now!

other pickguards over the years... I have made a lot of them for friends
