New Gear Acquisitions

[Metal and Beer]

That Ovation looks tasty as hell..


SunnJake0))) hooked me up with a Sunn Concert Bass recently, on account of him being particularly awesome. It'll make a swell slave !

I got an Avatar 4x12 w/ Vintage 30's the other day (week) for 200 clams from them Craigslists, pretty square deal methinks..

Next: 'nother cab, a pedal here and there and carefully looking for a guitar (I'm a pretty notorious impulse buyer, gonna shop hard this time..)

[bitter]

Nice score on that cab.

[jibberish]

the thing finally showed up, I think late last night..who knows what ups logistics are these days of growing web purchases.
I will still use reaper for post processing stuff, but this is going to make life lazy for sure.(not my pic obviously)

[Instant Dan]

Avatar cabs are the best bang for the buck on the market today.

[Lumpy]

Nice Breadwinner...

I got a 'Wrong Side of Uranus' from Montreal Assembly (he makes weird pedals). Bitcrusher with ringmod type tendencies. This is a bad demo but whatever.

[xayk]

nth'ing the 'nice Breadwinner' sentiment. I saw that someone local had the Eastwood copy for sale and it piqued my interest.

Lumpy, kudos on the Montreal Assembly pedal. I really, really want a Nasa Attribute, hope he does them again.

[The Shocker]

I had a Deacon (upscale Breadwinner) that I sold and regretted it.  Decided if I was going to get another Ovation I was going to get the Limited.  Supposedly only 500 made.  It just fits perfectly.

I scored an Epiphone G-400 at our local music-themed pawn shop* for 110 bucks, it's one of the mid-90's era models made in Korea which are "supposed" to be somewhat superior to the since-2002 Chinese ones (can't confirm or deny)...plays great, intonation is awesome which was the dealmaker for me. Set-neck, pickups sound better than I expected, etc. Pic isn't mine but here 'tis



* Not the pawn shop w/ the fake Custom I posted a while back

[Mr. Foxen]

That pic is a Chinese one, the Korean ones have more contouring.

[Metal and Beer]

Grabbed the first black G-400 pic I saw actually; mine has "Gibson" vertically on the trussrod cover which is also a Korean trait (according to Wiki)...it also has an "I" for the first digit of the serial which is supposed to denote Korean mfg.

[DustinAR]

Dave, it makes me smile to read that you're getting gear together. Did you get that Epi at Music City?

[Metal and Beer]

I did indeed sir, I'm going back for a second cab this week sometime; they got a lot of new stuff recently..

[the diddler]

You all set for amps, Metal Dave?  I gots a Beta lead and a Plush 1060s I'll probably be moving soon- if you need anything like that, of course.

[Metal and Beer]

I'll definitely keep that in mind, Sir Diddlah, feel free to remind a 'squatch when the time comes..

[VOLVO)))]

How much for that Bet.... Wait a minute.

1971 Guild Bluesbird, Merry Christmas to me!

[RacerX]

Suh-WEEEEEEEET!!

Nice score, dude.

[justinhedrick]

Suh-WEEEEEEEET!!

Nice score, dude.

agreed. so awesome. I love bluesbirds.

[Ranbat]

That Bluesbird is nice. I really like the Guild solidbody stuff. Even alot of their import stuff was solid. I just made a trade for this guitar yesterday. It's a Gretsch BST 1500. The DiMarzio's are stock. I traded a Teisco hollowbody for it. It even has the original case.

[RnRJanitor]

Just picked up a Small Stone Nano last week. Sound great on bass with or without dirt. No volume drop, minimal low-end loss. I like it.

[Drama]

Picked this beauty up a week or so ago.

Custom Shop Class 5 in Cobraburst.



I've just put a set of the new Lace Wino's in there.

[Metal and Beer]

Just acquired one of Seahag's old guitarists' Peavey cabs that he had redone w/ Celestions, it still has the old band mojo (stenciled band name, beaten back Tolex, doobie burns, beer bar/jam room stinkies).

Hells yes, mang.



Also, HHNNGG @ DAT G-G-G-GUILD

[hisheroisjon]

One of the few times I've left happy from GC, black Orange high powered 4x12 for 600 bucks. This thing doesn't ave a single scuff either.



That Guild doe.

[themusketking]

Have this puppy on layaway. Pretty pumped about it. I'm a bass player, but I have a number of SG(body style...as shown)
