What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

[rokket2005]

Picked up another Cioks DC10 so that I don't have to juggle a one spot back and forth between two different spots. I kind of need more outlets in my music room also, but since I rent I can't really do anything about that.

 

[KnightBrolaire]

I may just bite the bullet and wait for a used Dominion to pop up. Might as well get the best option first since everyone and their cat seems to love it.

Also forgot about the Dean Baker Act. Supposed to be a cool pickup as well. Kind of a meaner JB apparently?

i don't know anything about the dean baker. if you want kind of jb flavored but mean af, try an mcp afwayu.

Yeah but $70 new and right away vs $130 and a wait time.

I was mostly curious about the Baker Act because of the few reviews I've seen, they're mostly glowing.

I'm not trying to diss your options. Just trying to go with the cheaper options first before I get into the bo00otique stuff.

The end result will probanly be me just getting a Fluence Merrow/Classic set.

Given how rare they are used, I'm super debating on pulling the trigger now because... fuck it.

Well.


I bought a Dominion.

good choice

If it doesn't work out, then I'll try the Baker Act next. The only thing that worries me is that the Dominion will lack in the high end department, but we'll see.

dominion is brighter and has more high end than either the sd3 or titan, so you should be fine unless it's going into a super dark sounding guitar/rig.

Idk if it's the pickups, but for being all mahogany it's just as bright as my Fluence Classic loaded guitar. And that guitar is borderline harsh.

What's the scale length?

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

What's the scale length?

Plain jane 24.75''. It's as Les Paul as a Les Paul can be.

I guess it's the fretboard? It's that Resinator material which I guess is just a glorified ebanol.

Also I don't mean that as a bad thing. You can make bright guitars sound darker, but it's hard as fuck to make a dark guitar sound bright in my experience.

Every time I start to downsize someone posts something that I can't stop myself from buying on Reverb. RG2610 Prestige for $375? Absolutely going to buy that even if it's just to clean it up and flip at that point

 

[Andromalia]

I was unable to sell mine for 500 in europe so those are reaaally low priced. I gave up on selling it since anything lower just isn't worth it.

I have used one before, pretty good preamp, responds well to a tube swap.

For my new toy...

Is this the standard version or the baritone?

Also I haven't got the Dominion yet, but if it doesn't work out, then the Dean Baker Act is next for sure. After that I'm gonna risk it and try the BKP Cold Sweat or Painkiller, but I feel like the Dominion or Baker Act will be the ticket. The stock bridge pickup already sounds pretty decent.

Hell I think I changed my mind about getting the Ceres. Decided I might put that money down on trying to find a Hagstrom Super Swede.
