Ive managed to last 8 hours so far though I have enquired about a tasty looking offset from a prominent forumite. I'll need to shift a guitar before I do that, though...

Oh I'd be inclined just to go mad and do it.  Carpe the Diem and all that

Just placed an order for the parts for my new DAW pc  build to run Reaper 

Ryzen 2600x
MSI B450 Carbon Gaming Pro AC motherboard
16GB DDR4 Ram
500GB Samsung Evo 960 NVMe SSD
GTE 710 2GB gpu.. not gaming so don't need anything fancy.

I may document the build on here if people are interested (?)

Arrining tomorrow from Andertons, a Focusrite Itrack Solo, for use with my new Ipad Pro 10.5. Hoping it will open up a new world for me in terms of recording and practicing. Who knows I might even be brave enough to have a poor attempt at the solo of the month.

I keep looking at pickups. Don't really need any, but at the same time I'm a bit bored of my Duncan Distortions.

So far just looking at prices for:

Jazzmasters
Yamaha 311H
Squier Jaguar Bass 

ICBM

My Rickenbacker 450 probably counts since I agreed to buy it on Thursday but haven't paid for it yet.

Looked great next to that gorgeous matching bass mate

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...

Exhales deeply. All is right in the world again.

still looking to sell my amp so I can go Fendery for a bit. 

I'm going to be selling my Carr Rambler pretty soon. At least as soon as my Abbott 5e3 with 2x10" arrives.... probably in the next few days. Pretty clean Fendery...

Are you going to be buying my Marshall Astoria?

What sort of Fendery? I have a mint Blues Deluxe (tweed finish) that I'm considering shifting on... I'm not a million miles away from you either so delivery or meet up is possible. 

After a Princeton Reverb I'm afraid. MAYBE a DRRI.

Nothing yet. Feeling the urge for a single pickup rocker though, so for now I’m going to modify my Encore Strat, but depending how things go during the year, I wouldn’t mind tracking down one of the recent Gibson LP CMTs or similar. I love Juniors but sometimes a P90 just isn’t enough for me.

Nope, got everything I need.  Might see what comes out of Namm, could be tempted with a new delay, Strymon are hinting of a line-up refresh so may wait for that.

Guitar wise I will finish the Tele that resides in my wardrobe at some point.  But lots of gigs booked for the year and I have 3 electrics so it's not essential.

I placed an order with Andertons last night... arriving next week

Do tell more

I wanted a full-size bass as my short scale doesn't cope very well with drop tunings. Need to sell my short-scale now!

This year’s supply of Daddarios and Dunlop Jazz 3’s are on their way.  

After a mooch around Anderton’s yesterday and some listening trials, I’m very tempted to finally get some Genelec 8020 monitors for use with my PC. Nice balance between a small size and good sound.  

An idea popped into my mind to move on my Boss Blues Driver & DS1 and pick up an Angry Driver if one pops up at some point, to upgrade my little jam pedal board.

Another used pedal bargain from here will arrive by the end of the week.

That looks wicked Waz. Im still loving my v1 mercury.

I am now thinking seriously of possibly ditching the Helix and going back to pedals - a few Strymons possibly and then a Kemper for direct purposes.

Controversial I know...as the Helix covers both bases (it needs a repair so this is probably clouding my judgement)
