For all the Tech's out there what meter do you use the most for Amp and Guitar work? I seem to use my old Fluke 77 series ll the most. Always liked Fluke meters.

Mostly just an ancient no name digital multimeter that's good up to 600 Volts. I use that just for the convenience but there's been several occasions when I've gone back to my old analog meter. Digital meters can't spot a sudden voltage spike like an analog one can.

Both are just voltage, current and resistance meters, never felt the need for a capacitance tester or heaven forfend, an inductance meter.

I have a Fluke 179. It seems to serve me well.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.
