Design the Rig of Your Guitar Hero- GuitarGeek.com
Everyone has a guitar hero, if not more than one. Have you gone out of your way to emulate their sound but still cannot match their unique tone? Head on over to www.guitargeek.com and find the exact rig specifications of your favorite guitarist. Everyone from Johnny Greenwood of Radiohead to Billy Corgan is there. As the image above illustrates, this site goes out of its way to give you as many details as possible. The best part is that every single pedal, wire, rackmount effect, or amp has plenty of information about it.It's incredible to check out Jimi Henrix's personal rig and compare it to, say, something from this century. Oh how the times have changed. Head on over there and have yourself some fun.

This is a great site and have used it for reference many times. Definitely check it out.
No, Billy Corgan is NOT on there.
i want billy corgan's rig for siamesse dream
buh buh buh NO BILLY
I have some of Billy Corgan's guitar rig information on GuitarTechnician.com as his guitar technician (Vegas) who did Billy's guitars (way later than the siamese dream tour, sorry) started the site. The main thing here is WHAT he uses, not how it is maintained. Note he uses Diesel heads, Eventide Ultra-harmonizers, all the switching is via midi controllers.. in this version it is rocktron all access but if you are wondering about tone, look at the gear not how it is 'switched' between. Plus he made custom patches and uses specific guitars to get his sounds. This should be interesting to check out though and we'll be posting much more in the near future - KRONiS of http://www.guitartechnician.com

If you guys want to see Billy's rig go to the site that is kind of taking reign over guitargeek - UberProAudio.com - they have hundreds of rigs. Guitargeek has a lot of older rigs, which can be good too for some stuff, but UberProAudio is more up to date.
Hmm I checked out the uber site with 'hundred of rigs' and you know what? i couldn't find a single piece of information. perhaps it doesn't work with Firefox 3 yet but i was like, 'don't send me to a site with hundreds of rigs when there are clearly 30 or less listed, NONE of which worked in my browser...'
lame.
wait....
okay i tried it in XP running Firefox 2 and IE.7.0
NO go. Sorry no content on your site. "hundreds of rigs"...yeah.
Good luck!
Hi guitar tech blogger. That is weird you don't see any content. If you go to the Who plays What sections, you'd see over 200 rigs. perhaps you should get your computer checked!
