    Edge in a box? Fractal Audio FX8

    From what we've been able to gather this is only a single processor unit which means effects like reverb and delay will come to a screeching halt over program changes just like the HD500X. Haven't tried one yet but will next time I'm over by Tour Supply in North Hollywood.

    The Edge's Black with White pickguard Stratocaster pickups

    5.8K is the going rate for 70's era Strat Single Coils. Edge preamps his single coil guitars to bring them up to humbucker level.. which you can achieve by using something hotter like a Seymour Duncan SSL-4 Quarter Pound for Strat chain. (13+ K).

    Effects Unit

    You'd be surprised how fast quality pedals add up to more than that. Strymon Timeline + Bogner Blue = $700 right there
