Sort of. Pete and Phil Taylor made it into a rack version
*An Official Foo-Approved guitarist since Sept 2023.
Best setup ever.

All run through a Laney Lionheart L20H head, it gets me pretty darn close to some of Gilmours tones. I know it's not mega ££'s but it does for me!
Edit: I would like some kind of decent overdrive to boost the Muffs.
A Klon is a good boost for a Muff.

I wouldnt necessarily put Gilmour in that category though. He doesnt play your stock blues licks as such and it tends to be melody based. Yes he has a nice vibrato and uses a strat but he is a long way from being in that box. To me anyway. Maybe other people see it differently i dont know?
I think what appeals about Gilmour is a simplicity of approach, melody based, with tasteful use of drive and Fx. It may not be how I personally want to play, but there are bits of his sound approach that I can take inspiration from.
For example, I’m recording something in the studio at the moment and I’ve been told it has a DG feel (not intentional at all but I will take it) and the gear couldn’t be more different. This was a HB les Paul, JTM45 up full and a Thorpy Veteran.

I got this tone with my sons Squire Strat and a Behringer V-Amp straight into a desk, not completely Gilmour but similar feel ... lot of compression to get sustain rather than dirt

Think he would sound like him playing thru a POD
