My music equipment:

My instruments
Squier "stratocaster" (Japan) with Roland GK2 synth
pickup. This is one of the qualitative Squier's of the 80's.
It is my main guitar for live use. The neck position
is filled with a Seymour Duncan Vintage Rails and the
bridge position has a high output humbucker.
Between them is an ordinary single coil.
Tokai Love Rock (Les Paul model) sunburst (japan)
with Roland GK2A synth pickup. This is wired to
my VG-88 and is the main guitar in my home studio.
The pickups don't match the quality of the rest of this wounderful
instrument, but I don't care: I only use it to play
through the VG-88. The neck is the best thing
of all!
Fender Stratocaster 68' reissure (Japan).
A Seymour Duncan APS Alnico pickup in the neck position.
My only guitar with tremolo!
Ensoniq ESQ-1 synthesizer with sequencer
Washburn HB-30 semi-acoustic guitar (Korea).
Superb pickups and very very low action
Roland CR80 drum machine
Washburn acoustic guitar Admira classical (nylon) guitar
Samick bass guitar (5-stringed)
with a Japan Fender preamp/EQ built-in
Vantage bass guitar from the 70's
Roland GR-33 Guitar synthesizer Roland GR-50 guitar synthesizer
MIDI Foot Keyboard (Bass pedal type) Kawai K3m synth module (for the Foot Keyboard)
M-Audio USB MIDI keyboard

Guitar effects and amps
Boss GT-5 multi effect processor (mostly live use) Several homemade multi effect units and pedals
Cry Baby Wha wha (Jen) Stellan's modifyed Morley Wha
George Dennis Wha/Volume (optical control) Stereo volume pedals
Boss Chorus and Digital Delay pedals Ibanez FC-10 Distortion pedal
Modifyed Laney/Halkan 65 W transistor guitar combo Two Eminence 12" speaker cabinets
Stereo power amp (2x225 W) Roland VG-88 Virtual Guitar with update to version 2.0
This is my greatest purchase. I can get lovely tele-chrunch guitar,
12-str Rickenbackers, Strats and much more. Even the guitar
"synth" sounds are great (VERY few glitches).
Ibanez PUE5 multi effect from the 80's.
Great! I had almost forgot how superb these effects are...
However, the distortion effect is ...not crap.... but only metal toy.
RME 10 home made multi effect
Fender Super 60 Rack (60 W Tube amp) Old small tube radio to be used as guitar amp!
Line 6 Guitarport used as USB soundcard only, because the amp
simulations are NOT as good as Roland VG-88/Boss GT-5
Art SGX 2000 Express + X-15 foot control Tube preamp and digital multi effect.

Studio equipment
ART Proverb (Reverb) Homebrewed recording mixer 6x4x2
Computer dedicated for music recording.
1GHz AMD Thunderbird processor and 768MB DDR.
I use Adobe Audition 1.5 for recording.

Fostex R8 8-track on 1/4" tape recorder Homemade compressors, EQs, etc
4-channel microphone preamplifier 4-channel stereo mixer (my design)

Soundtracs T-series Mixer desk 16x8x2 (main home studio mixer desk) Steinberg Cubase SX 2.2 (licensed)
