GAS victims - What gear have you bought this year?

Mr-M · 2011-12-05T16:38:38+00:00

Post what gear you've bought this year and which items you've sold on - always interesting to see which items are keepers. Only include guitars, amps and pedals. I find these threads interesting reading on TGP (and shocking for the insane amount of gear some people buy), so I thought we might have a go here. I'll go first... Guitars: 1983 Ibanez Roadstar II w/ Kinman Woodstocks (thanks Guido!) Amps: VOX AC15C1 Pedals: Suhr Riot Way Huge Green Rhino Xotic EP Booster TC Hall of Fame (sold) Ibanez DE7 (sold) I've somehow managed to sell off a heck of a lot more guitar gear than I've bought this year. 8) My home studio on the other hand has been a bottomless pit of money... ?

Hmm, as I'm reflecting on 2011 I realise it has been the single most expensive year of my life (compared to some of you guys relatively cheap I suppose ?)

Out:

Laney VC15-110
Fender Highway 1 Telecaster (Sold that to fund amp purchase)

In:

VOX AC15 HW >> Head & Cab >> Best money I've spent in my life ?
TC Electronics Nova Delay
Peterson Strobo Stomp II
Stagg Pedal Board
Tokai ES60

Oh, and some guitar hardware for a decidedly unsuccesful build... ☹

I'm very hopeful over 2012... ?

Very, very good amp. A classic. I had one for a while and still miss it for some things (big, chimey chords).

norm, pardon the dumb question, but you still enjoying that albion? i'm 90% likely heading out to see the 50w version in live action this sunday, and will make a firmer decision once that's happened. i'm completely sold on the clean channel, but i want to hear how the dirty channel breaks up proper-like. either way, after my recent tokai sg acquisition, i'll have to wait until next year to get it. i'm hoping that means the one at music connection is a) still available and b) a little more shop-soiled discounted. he he...

I so wish I could see an estimate of turnover spent by us smitten guitarists... 8)

Uh.... I bought various picks and strings. Two strap retainers (Tapastring - V Good).

Is that even "gear"?

Tapastrings are good stuff, Thanks Bob

I think you have everything you need, except for that Lowden ?

Squonk's lean 2011 had only one inclusion - A Roland Cube30x which I dont really use because I suck at Electric Guitar playing.

Conrad

☹ I bought 3...maybe 4 guitars this year

Manuel Rodrigues Caballero
Manuel Contreras C7
Jose Ramirez R4
and a 4th guitar that was inexpensive but a very nice Cedar topped Ibanez classical as a gift for a friend

Things are getting out of hand.
