What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

Do it now.

recommendations?

I'm thinking about just going with a basic MIM Player Telecaster

Depends on the budget. Avri 52's are great if you like fat necks. American standards or specials are solid. Ive been impressed with the player series MIM but cant recall if they have tummy cuts or anything. Classic player lacquer models should be sweet too.

Really most of them are good, depends what budget you want and how fancy.

If I can get all the ergonomics (thinner neck, tummy cut, forearm cut) that would be awesome. I doesn't even necessarily have to be a Fender but, I do want the basic Tele pickup configuration, bridge, and control layout.

Check out some of the '50s and '60s Squier Classic Vibes. Or even the Michael Kelly guitars. Heard nothing but good things about all of those.

Just bought the PlxFx one too....

I'm gonna get this one tomorrow. Impulse buy since I'm not playing 6 stringers, but I just love Sabers (only have one) and the Double Edge Lo Pros and the price is just fantastic. it needs a bit of love, since it looks neglected and has a broken knob/pot, but for the price, it will be almost given... 550€ with some nicks in the back on the borders, but that's about all... and I'll go get it in person, so it's a safe buy. More pics next week. Obviously those stickers are comming out...

... and she's home with her older sister (the blue S540 from 1993), already without those stupid stickers, but yet to be cleaned. On the outside she has some dings here and there, nothing too bad, but the piezos aren't that fine. This one will take some time to get into shape...

Ah, modern player should be up your alley then.

Just brought this home, didn't think I'd the finish based on the photos, but it plays just as well as my EC-1000 and I managed to get it for fucking $5 after my SG Pro trade-in and the combined gift card from my 5-year anniversary at work/Christmas gift card

I think those one is actually going to get dropped down to D standard with Duncan Distortion in the bridge/no neck pickup, and the EC-1000 will come back up to E Standard with a Phat Cat in the bridge as I'm anxious to try out something different.

Buying all the components to make my Squier Strat H-S-H with EMGs. Got the 81, got the 60, just bought a pre-wired harness (peak lazy ), and now I'm waiting to get either a SA or SLV. Leaning more towaerds the SLV because it's supposed to be higher output, which'll balance well with the 81 and 60.

After that I'm looking into finally getting a MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe. That or a smaller delay that can do tap tempo, modulation, and self-oscillation.

 

[Spaced Out Ace]

Pre wired harness for EMGs? Good lord, man.

If I was doing standard 2-pickup 3-way toggle shit, I'd do it. I got all the parts.

But to do a 3-pickup, 5-way deal with the solderless system you need to buy EMG's $30 fuck-you switcher.

Not only did I not have have all the parts to do a solderless job, I also didn't have all the parts to solder a harness. So fuck it.

I have two of the three ways. They're awesome and not a pain like that weird buss bullshit.

I've owned a couple of regular Carbon Copy pedals and currently have a Deluxe. The Deluxe sounds a little less murky overall since it has twice the delay range and slightly higher fidelity as a result. It's not a big change in tone, but it's also not quite one-for-one with the regular one. I mostly use it in conjunction with another delay to make an ambient wash that won't run away unless I want it to.

The Way Huge Supa Puss is another great analog delay with a similar feature set, plus it goes 100% wet if that's important to you. The gain control has a big effect on how quickly it will oscillate, and it will also oscillate a lot easier than the Carbon Copy in general.

You might also check out the JHS Panther Cub since you're digging the Emperor so far I haven't tried one to compare, though.

I did have the Way Huge, and it was definitely a killer pedal... albeit way too big. I really regret selling it in retrospect. I think I'd dig the Carbon Copy though. And the Panther Cub would be cool, but not $300 cool.

I've seen a lot of the V1.5 ones go for around $140-160 used and the V2 ones for $180-200. That's all local and in FB groups, though. Reverb prices on both are stupid, just like everything else on there lately

One other option that comes to mind is the DOD Rubberneck, at least just based on features since I've never tried one out. Pretty sure it's bigger than both the Supa Puss and CC Deluxe, though.

$60 well spent!

You want an empress tape delay.

I'll probably end up hopping on an Empress, Wampler, JHS, or rebuy the Supa Puss delay because they all seem to fit the criteria I need. I changed my mind on the CC Deluxe because it apparently has an (intentionally) fucked up mix/level knob.

I also will probably wait on it. I dont really NEED a 2nd delay pedal. My Boss DD5 w/ the external tap does the job just fine, and I got a cheap $30 analog delay for when I want to get something more crispy or want to get those self-oscillating sounds.

So right now I'm either focused on getting the EMG Super 77 or Daemonum set for an existing guitar... Or checking out one of these Corts.

I was gonna get another Squier Strat for a mod project... but fucking look at these things.
