Well here's a vote for the K&K Pure Western Mini pickup coupled with the K&K Pure XLR preamp. Sounds great without another Mic on the guitar and you can run it from the phantom power from the mixer.

I usually play with no effects but have a Lexicon LXP1 reverb for when I need it. It's overkill for acoustic live but sounds lushious.

My amp of choice would be the Bose L1, but I don't own one, normally just plug into the house system.

There's a lot of choice of mixers that sound and perform quite similarly. Look for switchable phantom on all channels. The Bose can come with the ToneMatch system for mixing too, it's neat but expensive.

Good old Shure SM57 makes a great live vocal Mic, but in the studio I like the ADK large diaphragm condensers.
