What do you have/want??

[Jurds]

Howdie,

thought I might start a thread on what gear (guitars, amps, pedals etc) people have or really want to own!

Could be a good place for people to learn about different pieces of equipment or give you another bloody guitar to lust over!

Here's what I have:
'79 Gibson Les Paul "The Paul"
Maton Mastersound MS2000
Maton EBG808
Ibanez Acoustic (cheap and nasty but sounds surprisingly good)

Trace Elliot Speed Twin C100
Hotcake Overdrive pedal
V Amp 2

What I want:
Belman Albatross Grand
Grubisa Merlin
Reynolds Amp
Gibson Les Paul gold top (p90's)
Gretsch DuoJet

Anyone else?

[twentysomething]

Cole Clark Fat Lady 2A Acoustic
Maton EBG808 "Custom Deluxe" Acoustic/Electric Guitar
Fender Telecaster White
Monteray Strat - Cheapy
Samick Bass - Cheapy

Amp:
Fender Acoustasonic Jnr

[SPDC]

Have:

Cheap-ass Samick bass (sounds good through a decent amp, though)
Sigma acoustic guitar (again, cheap, but sounds very very nice)
Squier Affinity series Telecaster (are you detecting a pattern here? Actually sounded better than a lot of Fender Teles I played. The pricetag sounded a lot sweeter, too.)
Crappy Samick 22W 'bass' amp (the smallest bit of bass makes it distort like a motherfucker, but sounds good with an electric guitar through it)
Various nylon stringed classical guitars that i somehow aquired
Dodgy strat knock-off that a friend left at my place

FX: none

Want:

Guitar:

Um... maybe something made by Gibson/Epiphone, like and SG or 335 or something (not much of a Les Paul fan, although Spinal Tap and The Darkness did make me want to throw out my Tele and buy a huge Marshall stack and a LP)

Amps:

Um... I played a very nice Fender Twin Reverb a while back. Nearly knocked off a bank around the corner so i could buy it.

Not sure about anything else. I'm not too clued up on amps

FX:

same as amps. Delay, tremolo, reverb, wah-wah, distortion, compression, phaser, flanger, pitch shifters, I really can't tell one brand from another. I( dont really use them anyway, but I'm willing to give something different a shot. Can anyone reccomend me some decent FX pedals to get me started?

My setup:

Guitars:
Martinez semi-electric (It's dying a slow death)
Jim Dyson Tone Deluxe Standard (with 'humbucker' configuration)

Pedals:
Boss Overdrive
Line 6 Floorboard (controls all onboard effects/modes/etc.. on the Flextone II)

Amps:
Vox Pathfinder (15w Combo)
Line 6 Flextone II (60w combo)

Behringer 4 Track Mixer - For recording.

What i want
Telecaster

Yamaha classical acoustic I took from school 3 years ago and haven't restrung

Want
Fender American Tele

[Pat]

Have:

Guitars:

'70 Gibson Les Paul custom (ebony)
'97 Fender Strat in white
Fender acoustic of some kind (its not American but its a fantastic guitar... I write everything on it and hardly ever put it down)

Amp:

Marshall VS65R

Effects:

Boss TR-2 Tremolo
Boss DS-1 Distortion (used for level boost)
Vox Wah
Danelectro DT-1 Tuner

Want:

Fender Jazzmaster
Maton 12 String acoustic
Fender Tonemaster (after sitting in front of Paul's at LATW I just completely love the sound of them... fantastic amps)

[jcook26]

Own:
»Squier Strat'. I love the tone.
»Monterey 3/4 sized acoustic with cutaway and pickup.
»Peavey Rage 158 Amp. It's broken.
»Korg Ampworks G - just about every effect known to man packed into one tiny unit. I highly recommend it to anyone looking at cheaply buying a range of effects (this means you, SPDC). Luckily it also lets me play my strat through my computer so I've been able to survive without a working amp.
»DOD Distortion pedal.

Want:
»Fender Twin Reverb
»Fender Jazzmaster
»Gibson SG
»Maton MS2000
»Anything by Jim Dyson.

[Aemon]

Guitars:
Gibson Lp Custom (Alpine White)
Jim Dyson Tone Deluxe TV (Silver Sparkle)
Ibanez CT Series (Anybody want?)

Amp:
Vox AD 120VTX

Pedals:
Boss DD5 Digital Delay
Boss PH2 Phaser
Boss TU2 tuner
Boss Tr2 Tremelo
Electro Harmonix Graphic Fuzz
Electro Harmonix Big Muff Pi
Electro Harmonix Octave Multiplexor

Having just bought the vox, some of my pedals will be ebayed soon. If anybody is interested in them feel free to ask. Eventually I'd like one of Line 6's Modulation pedals but I can't really complain.

For anybody interested, I HIGHLY recommend the Vox AD 120VTX. You couldn't find a better 14 amps (not to mention acoustic guitar, guitar rack etc).

Boogs,
whats your opinion of the VOX Pathfinder 15W Combo? Im thinking about buying one.

Also i picked up a Cole Clark Fat Lady 2A.........i havent played my Maton since. Very comfortable neck and a great sound.

Cheers
Matt

[boogs]

Matt, it's a great little amp - my friends were highly impressed by it, for such a little thing. Picked it up 2nd hand from cash converters for $150ish. Tube needs replacing though, cos there's this popping sound that comes about every once in a while (nothing major - just annoying if you hear it).

Got my Jim Dyson Tone Deluxe btw ;D (BEAUTIFUL!)

[twentysomething]

Thanks Boogs,
im heading out this week to try one out.

Btw, any chance you will be able to post a pic of the Dyson?

Im still thinking about one, though im also looking at maybe getting a Cole Clark Culprit 3 (the hollow tele style), ive heard great things and ive been sent a few really nice pics from one of the guys at CC.

To many choices, not enough money!!

Cheers
Matt

[boogs]

I took all pictures at night time (this is just one of em), so the glare of the light will show all fingerprints and stuff

More to come!

[Jurds]

Hey boogs,

Nice looking guitar my friend!

Care to give us a review?

[Troy Dann]

i picked up a new guitar today

Fender Telecaster for $650 and a Cube 30 Watt Amp for $350. Originally $1600 together, sale price of $1200, my dad bargained them down. Sweet as.
