      The only piece of gear I bought in a full calendar year was - Roland Cube 30x, but I suck at electric guitar and feel like selling it!
      Hey Squonk...
      You KNOW you're talking crap right?!
      We have ALL heard you play! and you play a MEAN guitar!!!
      Dont try to brush off your skills!
      Hell, i wish i could play as well as you! in time yes, but even now i admire your skill!!!
      So dont even think what you are thinking, its just a bunch if lies you're telling yourself!!!! >☹
        Mine would have to be my EPIPHONE GOTH FLYING V!!
        I love the thing to bits ? Oh and it sounds massive when i tune it down to DROP A#. 8)

          ok, ya got me. next week i'll have time and i'll do a proper shoot of all me gear. assuming i get my tripod back. if i don't, i'll make a plan. i've wanted to take pohoties of my prs for a while, anyway.

          good call singe!
            Bought a tonelab st off of Mr. T.
            I'm really digging the range of effects and amps it can model.
            Definately the best piece of kit i bought this year as its now always on, i cant remeber what my amp sounds like without it. 8)
              Jazz 3 pick ?

              Dr neon strings.. Love the feel and tone
                those jim dunlop-types? long been among my faves. was a fan of the stubbies for a bit, but once i got me fingers on them things, it was those or the fender teardrop 'heavies' - kind of elongated teardrop shaped, tortoiseshell coloured things, probably somewhere between .80 and .90mm. perfect for strummin and pickin.
                  PRS 10 top Singlecut Trem in Natural. Been around the block,

                  but damn she play so gooood! 8)

                    This was my dumbest move this year. ☹ If you ever decide to sell, you know who to contact...
                      Its a hard choice to say what was the BEST purchase but I would have to say my Ibanez AS83 with my Fender Supersonic in a very close second...
                        Hen, those are a stark contrast to the fiddle in your avatar ?
                          after ages of trying to get a tele'ish tone from my tele partcaster or usa strat i finally went out and bought a fender usa tele this year .......and got instant tone (well the tone i was seeking) with no fiddling

                          another great buy was my old 60's point to point tube amp that jp modded onto a fender princeton circuit


                          both tele and tube amp are gigging and getting the tone i love best buys of the year for me

                            haha, I know! I think I should update it ?
                              My Mesa Boogie Express 5:50 combo.... ?
                              next year the quest is on for a PRS Custom 24 with bird inlays (going to have to sell some of my other gear for this one,,,,,,) ?
                                The Cusack Pedalboard Tamer has been a fantastic purchase.

                                But I think the Timeline might just usurp the PBT when it FINALLY arrives.

                                    one should never overlook the absolute bare accessories. sorry. necessities. is that the 8v or the 16v? i had a csi, with the old 1800 8v engine, yissie. i was a big fan of that engine...it was the mk1 i think. man oh man. body was up to s#^t, but the engine was the bomb. by which i mean when it ran it was magic, but every so often it would stop and blow up.

                                      8-Valve 2.0 Liter with that SA made injection system. It's a bit pap for a 2 litre but still a good car.
                                      I get my Deluxe Reverb, Mixing rack, Gig box, 2 Strats, a Tele, all mic and speaker stands and odds and ends into the boot, 2 JBL Eons on the back seat and I'm good to gig.. ?
