800 bucks and can't decide what to buy

[Dehumanize]

im looking at either a used ibanez s7420 and probably upgrading the pups

or getting a power conditioner noise gate and a amp/rack road case since i play out of town and occasionally tour

or getting a vader 215 cabinet (ive got a 212 and 412)

or maybe putting it back for a new amplifier even though im satisfied with the vh140c

theres $800 burning a hole in my pocket and i can really only get one major upgrade right now with that much

what do you fellas suggest, cab, case, or guitar?

Go for the power conditioner, gate, and case. You'll always be able to use them in your rig regardless of what amps, cabs, effects, etc. you get down the line.

Sooo much wisdom. Totally agree.

Dude... do what I did the other day. Put the money on a debit card, then grab a few beers and your favorite internet browser and go crazy.

between craigslist, ebay, sevenstring.org marketplace, americanmusical.com, jemsite classifieds and zzounds.com; you can spend that money quite fast and effectively.

I actually have enough to grab a used S7420 (and I found one on the board that really hit the GAS nerve) and a discount amp/rack case. I'm going to have about 1000 USD instead actually, I forgot about payment from a weekend delivery job. I might have to pass on a conditioner and noise gate, but it wouldn't be hard to scrounge the money together for those. I've got an ISP G-String pedal and a 50 dollar surge protector that have been taking care of my amp for a long time, another month wouldn't hurt.

Ooohhh! American Musical Supply, and Zzounds - I've bought some pretty cool stuff from those places!

Dude, I've got several things I could use $800 for if you don't know what to do with it.

But seriously, in situations like this the best option is usually to keep saving up until you find something you absolutely can't live without.

 

[ridner]

may I suggest this lovely option?
