Gear goals for 2010...

[daveg777]

Sending my Lightning clone to Ben Fargen for VOS mods, grab a used Kingsley D30, order a cabinet from or two from Mather cabinets, and finally send funds to Nik for his lovely JTM45 clone.....

AND buy NO OD pedals in 2010....


Dave

 

[Mike_D]

To buy as little as possible. I've spent too much time chasing various tones to no end other than to try them out. I need to get into the "more Mel Bay, less eBay" mindset.
Of course, I really want to try a Dr. Z Maz 18...

 

[daveg777]

Mike D,

I intend to do that with pedals, but I have a couple of amps to run through as well. If I had spent the money this year on amps instead of pedals...



Dave

 

[big mike]

Minimize.

 

[twinrider1]

Practice more....gas less.

 

[small axe]

Practice more....gas less.

amen to that...but i still have gas for a my perfect stratocaster

 

[James]

Goals for 2010:

1) Stop the bloody madness and don't buy any more stuff
2) Get rid of stuff I rarely play and don't really need
3) Play the heck out of the stuff I have.

Oh yeah, and:

4) Get both amps fixed so they work flawlessly.

 

[Rock72]

Get the most out of the gear I already have and improve my playing. Less distractions by GAS. I also want to learn how to record clips.

 

[NR2112]

id like a switching system for all the effects and channel changing

I hate running cords every show!!!

 

[Primakurtz]

From the trunk of my groovy flying car, I will pull:
- An amp that weighs 2 pounds & sounds like a full stack, except that it will sounds just the way I want at any volume. It will have amazing dispersion, too;
- A guitar that plays & sounds great, is nearly indestructible, stays in tune at all times, and has some sort of glowing neck so I can see it on dark stages;
- A pedalboard that is small, lightweight, allows me to do anything I want, beerproof, and is so inexpensive I won't worry about losing it; and,
- This will all be 100% wireless. I hate running those cables, too!

Maybe by 2011...

 

[Jahn]

i have a crapload of random bits of gear that were too much of a pain to unload here and there. this year i think i'll root through the closet, drag em out, and sell em just to make space. whatever cash comes out of that, i'll get a Treble Booster, maybe a Beano Boost.

 

[picnic]

learn how to record at home and burn cd's

 

[PatrickE_FenderADV]

2010 goal here... simple. Just a Tele and nothing else.

 

[gtrs]

Get a Carol-Ann 6L6 OD2 50 watt, OD2r and a 100 watt Revo
Another Stone Age cab for the Carol-Ann's
Snag a 65amps Marquee and Soho
Get a Grosh Electra Jet and Tele

Win the Lotto

 

[hangten]

definitely will be selling a couple of guitars and amps and pedals
and
definitely will be trying to get a great amp situation going.

fryette memphis is a possibility
also interested in Swart and
AC30...

 

[funkmaster]

Tele,
Memory Boy
Tonebender kit from BYOC

 

[daveg777]

Picnic,

I agree and forgot to list that myself! I DO intend on recording in 2010,
now that is another thread entirely as I no nothing of all the new software applications for recording. Fostex right?!

[KGWagner]

• I feel like I gotta build either a JCM800 or a Jubilee this year coming.
• Gonna have to build a 2x12 bottom. 4x12 is just too much to handle.
• Gonna have to do some recording, so I have someone to play with <grin>
• Other than all that, I just gotta spend more time on the guitar playing it, rather than thinking about it.

 

[Fifthstone]

Do some songwriting and recording.
Play with other musicians more.
Pick up EITHER another Tele or Strat (Tele most likely).
Pick up ONE of the following: Fender Deluxe Reverb, Super Reverb, Vibroverb, Dr. Z Carmen Ghia 2x10 combo, Dr. Z Maz 18 Jr
Pick up AT LEAST one of the following: Plush Cream, Fulltone Catalyst, Pro Co Whiteface Rat Reissue, Way Huge Aqua Puss Reissue

 

[lpdeluxe]

I'm almost there with amps, and I am there with guitar amps (Blues Jr NOS, Jazzmaster Ultralight, Band-Master VM/Weber California Ceramic 15 for different material/venues/guitars). My Hartke HA2500/210TP/115TP will be replaced with a Mesa-Boogie Walkabout Scout, once I sell my Les Paul.

Guitars are covered, but I'll get rid of the Samick L5CES copy I was given last Spring, and I hope to trade my Dobro for one with a more suitable sound for my dotage (bought the one I have in '85).

I got the bass of my dreams in November: a Fender American Vintage '57 P. It joins a '51 reissue and a fretless P for as much bass as I can reasonably say grace over (although, wuncha know, just checked out the American Standard Precision V).

My mini-PA will come together (Alesis Studio 12R mixer and Carvin DCM1000 amp in a small rack -- a Lexicon reverb will arrive this week). I only pull it out in emergencies, hook it up to a pair of Peaveys on stands.

My recording gear is as complete as its gonna get (Korg d888 for live recording, Adobe Audition for mixing/processing, ribbon, large diaphragm and small diaphragm mics, control surface, a pair of digital mixers, lots of preamps and converters and all such as that, M-Audio monitors).

Got everything but talent.
