Some sound clips of the gear I use.

The following clips were recorded with a '99 Fender Telecaster, Bill Lawrence 280/290 pickup set, and Dr. Z Rt.66 head with an Avatar 212. The speaker cabinet is loaded with a Celestion G12H-30 and a Weber Blue Dog 30 watt speaker. A Sure SM57 mike was placed a few inches from the grill and off-center from the Blue Dog.

The pedals on these clips are:

BJF Red Rooster Booster (RRB)
BJF Pale Green Compressor (PGC)
BJF Little Green Wonder (LGW)
BJF Tri Color overdrive (TC)
BJF Sea Blue EQ (SBEQ)
Pedalworx Neo-Drive (Neo)

The BJF pedals are courtesy of my friend DonneR over at the musictoyz.com forum.

The overdrive pedals (LGW and TC) were both set to a similar medium overdrive setting -- enough gain to roll off some leads. The Neo pretty much has one distortion setting, but the clips show how nicely it cleans up with the guitar volume knob.

The Tri Color and SBEQ clips were recorded badly...in that there is a noticeable volume spike when the SBEQ is engaged. My bad. You will hear th SBEQ kick on with a thicker and wider tone spectrum compared to the Tri Color by itself.

The next series of clips were all recorded at an outdoor festival.  The signal was taken directly from the soundboard I believe...not sure what kind of equipment was used by the sound company.
 
My rig consisted of the Telecaster, Dr. Z Rt.66 amp with KT66 power tubes (2), an Avatar 212 cabinet loaded with a Weber Blue 30watt and a Celestion G12H30.  The pedals on my board at the time are a Prescription Electronics' C.O.B., EH Qtron, Barber LTD, Pedalworx Neo-Drive, Lovepedal Eternity, Jacques' Meistersinger chorus, and Oz FX' Amp Blaster boost pedal.
