Most Wanted Instruments / Gear

ThePhanastasio · 06-07-2011, 06:25 AM

What instruments or gear are you most looking forward to investing in?

Right now, I'm trying to get a more steady income so I can start paying for this stuff:

Fender Special Run Standard Strat (Rootbeer Flake finish)

(I like the addition of a humbucker in the bridge position on this model; suits my purposes more fully.)

Fender Deluxe VM tube amp

I've played through one of these, and have never heard such perfect (in terms of what I'm looking for) tone. I really want one of my own. It's 40W, through 1 12" speaker, so it's big enough to really rock out, but not big enough to get me arrested / break my windows.

Also looking into a couple of TS9 Tube Screamers, a good compressor, and I'd really like the Eventide Space:

The Eventide Space is a little pricey, so I may not get it at all...because mostly I just want to play around with it. But you can tell it would be a lot of fun:

I want to get a nylon string classical guitar, not sure what brand yet. I have to try some out first.

That's a nice guitar! Would love to have a resonating guitar.

I'm hoping for a Fender Telecaster Standard/Highway One (depends on how much money I've got) with either an Orange Tiny Terror or Vox Valvetronix (still haven't decided on which number. Again, probably money limits at the time). Oh, and a Big Muff, obviously.

Dont count out a used Mia. You can get them for like 500 on craigslist. Also dont get the valvtronix, if your gona go that far getting a nice amp get an ALL tube vox.

Also for the record get the Big Muff Pie NYC Reissue, I have one and will enver get rid of it.
