Next Purchase Curiosity

**just strum** · August 23rd, 2008, 05:22 PM

What do you think will be your next guitar or gear related purchase.

My thoughts change about a purchase change from day-to-day and it always includes a guitar. However, I think my next purchase will be a new speaker for the AD30VT. DVM and gang convinced me in an older thread that it was a good investment.

So, what are you kicking around for your next purchase.

From picks, to Gibson, to Marshall stacks - you name it.

my next guitar will be something with p90's....the gibson sg classic looks great but i might go with something less expensive like a godin or reverend or something...

My son told me if I quit smoking he'll buy me a Marshall stack. But I think CB would get more use out of that than I would. Right now I'm really leaning toward either a mandolin, or a Martin (don't tell the guys over on the Washburn forum about that last one).

I started to post SHINER IS BUYING A MARTIN in real big red font over at the Washburn forum, but then I thought they would all jump on me for attempting to start a fight.

I need an Airbrake attenuator for my Dr. Z MAZ 18. 18 watts is loud, and I can't get the mojo working on it without rattling the walls.

Also on my list: the Lovekraft Chupacabra pedal.

Washburn DB Cherokee. but i'm broke, and it will have to wait.

My next purchase will be a Fender Super Champ XD - AdvanceMusic up in Burlington has them. It sounds very nice and has gotten many good reviews. It will be my primary amp. Since I don't gig, it should be fine - the 15w should be enough to annoy the neighbors and my family

I saw the Chupacabra running across the road the other day and he was heading your way.

Tell us more about this mysterious creature and pedal.

Well I purchased a 3 tone sunburst Xaviere 870 w/ maple neck last night,don't know what the next purchase will be, have to replace 13 guitars ,2 amps and 11 pedals so it might be new blues driver then the the H2O mod kit

My next purchase? Who knows. I saw a Fender Studio lead on ebay the other day in absolutely mint condition...that was the first guitar amp I ever bought and it had to be in the early 80's. I put a bid down but was outbid. The winning bid was close to what I paid for the amp NEW over 25 years ago.

If I have a purchase in the near future, I might go for a Peavey Vypyr or Vox Black Diamond amp, but I'm in no hurry right now to buy any gear. I've been pretty satisfied with the gear I have now.

Well, if all goes well, my next purchase will be a Jackson DK2m plus a super 5-way and 5 on/on mini-toggles and 2 on/on/on mini toggles for a combined total of around 35-38 tones + dedicated killswitches and an over-all killswitch.

Either that or a Fender Lite Ash Stratocaster in natural finish.

Or maybe an Epiphone Dot Studio or similar, replace the pickups and add some modded wiring. . .

. . . Been wanting to change the speaker in my amp for a while. . .

. . .Too much gas, not enough cash. . .

**scgmhawk** · August 24th, 2008, 10:36 AM

I'm thinking a "telecaster" style guitar but I also want a tube amp. Such difficult decisions...

I need to sell some stuff on Craiglist first...but Im thinkin a used Blues Jr or a Boss RC-20XL Loop Station. But Im thinkin I need the Loop Station more than I need another amp and I think itd help me alot with my rythmn, leads and help me advance to another level...whereas I feel Im in kind of a rut without it.

Strum (and maybe a few more veteran Fretnetters),

You've known me long enough to know I've been a

'horse trader', on a weekly Search & Acquire Mission, on my local GAS Station's speed-dial to tip me on the latest trade-ins that hit the place.

So here's a shocker: None.

I've got more than I need...what's the opposite of GAS?

Any new purchases would be somewhat in the future, but like Strummy I'd consider a speaker for my AD30VT, a bass, and a Danelectro Cool Cat Fuzz.

Gotta put some $$ aside to get The Force Unleashed for the PS3 too.

**just strum** · August 24th, 2008, 12:44 PM

I must add the "Lucille" to my list, but a distant second to the speaker.

Maybe a used one will pop up.

**ted s** · August 24th, 2008, 02:46 PM

There is a Squire Deluxe Strat in white as well as an American Standard in white in the local L & M. I'm going to have to A/B them I think.
