See what I did there? I combined two words into one new word.

drool!! That is some collection.

**guitarhack** · February 15th, 2011, 06:15 AM

Drool is right! That's a b****in' man cave!

Whoah, Rylan you've been a busy boy with dat credit card! Do you still have all of that? And a TSL head? Wow.

**wingsdad** · February 15th, 2011, 08:47 AM

Nice stash.

Your rider, if you have one, on your homeowner's or renters policy, must cost as much as your auto policy?
With all that electric gear, I guess the Taylor gig bag next to the Bassman is just to keep the rest of the guitar clan honest?

Nice collection! And do I spy a BYOC OD2, and Super Rat on that pedal board - sweet!

**rylanmartin** · February 15th, 2011, 10:27 AM

The EVH stack and The TSL100 are for sale. I'm looking at possibly picking up a Fender MIJ Jaguar special this weekend.

do I spy a BYOC OD2, and Super Rat on that pedal board - sweet!

Those are unfinished pedals built by DVM. The ZYS MKII is pretty sweet. I might put the distortion on pedal board #2 and replace it with a T-Rex Mudhoney II later this month.

Whoah, Rylan you've been a busy boy with dat credit card! Do you still have all of that? And a TSL head? Wow.

As of right now, that is a most of what I own... Still buying and selling stuff.

I'll often put gear up for sale online that I don't actually want to get rid of. I'll overprice it, because it just doesn't hurt to see what happens. With the guitar amps, I played a lovely game of "bigger and better" trading for about a year. I started with posting a Vox AC30 and traded up about 6 or 7 times and ended up with my Marshall JVM, another Vox AC30, and the Fender Bassman. I probably only spent another $250 outside of trading.

First, awesome gearventory! Second, what you did was create a portmanteau (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portmanteau) so, although the word may be new (and awesome!), the technique has been used a time or two in the English (and others too) language before. ;-)

So does that mean that I have to give back my Webster's windbreaker???

Commodore 64, I'm really digging your blue strat! That's a beautiful piece of guitboard!

Looks great Rylan! I wish I had a place to put all my stuff.

Tell us about that Sonax!

**sunvalleylaw** · February 15th, 2011, 10:32 PM

I love the Bassman, (prolly my favorite amph) and am also very curious about the Sonax. I don't remember your gear list for guitars either. Tell me about that strat a little left of center. Looks a lot like mine!

**Katastrophe** · February 16th, 2011, 06:12 PM

Rylan, you really don't need all that old, used gear. Since you work in a music store, and probably receive an employee discount, you should just buy new.

As it happens, I happen to offer a used gear disposal service. It's environmentally friendly, and all you have to do is pay shipping from Canada to Texas. I'll take care of the disposal for free!

Now, how can you possibly pass up a deal like that?

Seriously cool setup... My wife probably wouldn't see me very often if I had gear like that!

As far as I can tell, these were made by Yorkville for Gretsch. It's kind of a wooly sounding amp. I replaced the grill cloth with an old curtain that was in our house when it was purchased. I think it looks cool. I play it occasionally for those "butt rock/indie" tones.

**Ch0jin** · February 17th, 2011, 07:38 PM

"wooly sounding" and "curtain" are these two quotes somehow related perchance?

Tone is in the wooly-sounding curtain used for grille cloth, silly!

**rylanmartin** · February 18th, 2011, 01:51 PM

Actually the cloth was purely a "looks" decision. My wife wanted a cool looking amp, and we thought the curtain would be kind of cool. The Sonax is actually a terrible amp all around
