OK, I came across an unexpected bit of money and I'd like to put part of it toward some gear of some kind. I'm looking at the three options above. I'd like the Hardwire delay to replace my Boss, mainly because I'd like to use some of the modes my Boss doesn't provide. It also has a much longer loop recording time (20 seconds vs. 5.2 seconds). I'd turn around and sell the Boss to make a bit back.

The EMG bass pickups would be the most expensive option, but it's been something I've wanted to do for a while.

The last option isn't musical gear--it's a new monitor. My CRT is beginning to show its age. I'd also like to go widescreen and cut back on my power consumption. That is the monitor that DVM recommended elsewhere and that Tung also has, I think. This would be the least likely option because if my CRT dies, I'll have carte blanche to get a new one. Guitar gear purchases, not so much. I'm open to other ideas, but we're looking under $200 here.
