So, Welcome 2019 ! Have You, Er.... Purchased Anything Yet ?

Wazmeister

Happy New Year one and all !

Some of us, I daresay, are full of gear-related resolutions.
This may involve a tightening of the purse strings, and a promise that honestly, THIS year Ill be playing more and buying less...

Hmmm ???

So, have you bought anything yet ? Whats your GAS ? What are you researching ?

Wazmeister

And...

Here’s my first purchase...

Bosted (Black Country for ‘broken open’) my 2018 ‘cut-back-be-sensible-sell-all-my-amps-just-use-the-Kemper-invest-the-money-in-the-business-strategy’

Arriving Thursday, and I’ve already made a biffy collage...

Happy New Year
I didn’t think you were watching Lance Keltner videos again, as they only make you buy stuff

It looks and sounds killer Waz!
I’ve not bought anything yet, but I’m on the lookout for a Tortoiseshell Pickguard and have my eye on a new acoustic, and a Crazy Tube Circuits White Whale Reverb/Trem

ThorpyFX

I’ve bought myself a little treat... should arrive tomorrow I hope... it’s a Dr Scientist Atmosphere Reberb

I like playing into little 5w valve amps, but could do with a bit of spring reverb, so I bought a cheap reverb pedal from Reverb.

Happy NY all.

Thorpy Ge Veteran on the way shortly.

No,....but I did do some rather diligent online “study” of some small Vox products. I’ve booked a guitar related holiday in the last few days, and could do with something amp like that’s small and aircraft friendly.

I'm trying to sell off all my excess gear as I soon won't have space for it to just sit unused. I'd like a 2nd guitar but when I have that I tend to just spend more time obsessively A/B'ing to decide which should be #1.

I think this will be the year I give modelling a proper go though. Most likely a HX Stomp or LT. Will be much better for playing at home which as of June I'm doing more and more of, and less and less of situations where I'd use an amp.

You got it.

That Lance video was a ‘major’ contributor. He’s a bugger for that...

Not bought anything but I have an amp kit shipping tomorrow and I've been looking at Les Pauls on Reverb all morning..

Er, yes.

I have no plans to downsize anything but other than Eurorack and some studio bits I won't be buying that much- maybe a couple of pedals.

My playing goals are pretty lofty this year- I am trying to play more piano and have set myself the task of learning Sir Duke, For Once in My Life & I Wish by Stevie Wonder. I'm not remotely close to being able to play any of them.
Yet.

Gaffa tape ordered online. My final roll went missing at last night's NYE gig.

Tried a PRS Dustie Waring CE yesterday, liked the pickups but it didn't quite fit right in my hands. Quality item though.

Seeing as that's a no go I might settle for a JP6 any day now.

I picked up my new (old) Yamaha sg last nice.   Tasty sounds coming out of it this morning.
