I did this as a part of a chain thing on Farcebook, where you get nominated by someone else. You're supposed to post one per day. Just to make it easier (on me) I decided to pick only British guitarists. I'm up to number 63 so far, and I've got at least another dozen ready to go.
Amps - NVA P50, AP30, A40, Stanislav Palo Tube Headphone Amp BB 85
Speakers - Monitor Audio Silver RX2
Cables - NVA LS1+LS3, SSC, Gotham S/PDIF, IBRA Optical
Digital - NAD C516BEE, SONY ST-SDB900 DAB TUNER, TEAC UD-H01 DAC
Analogue - Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Esprit SB, Graham Slee Gram Amp 2 Phono
Cans - Grado SR80, ATH-M50X
