What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

[Spaced Out Ace]

Bro! Selling my Theta Combo is one of my greatest regrets in gear selling. The clean tone alone was enough to make that amp worth keeping. Literally never heard a better clean from anything

Not getting a Theta head for $600 is a regret of mine.

I feel like I never fully love what I have in the moment, then sell it, then listen to old recordings Inmade with that gear and think “damn that sounded great what was I thinking?”

There are only a few things I regret selling, most of them because of what they're worth now (ie: a Blackmachine B2 and my Bogner 30w 100b prototype), but the piece of gear I regret selling because of cost and because I don't know wtf I was thinking was... The USA Jackson SL2H. I traded it for an electric drum set back when they were only worth like $1200. I have yet to own a guitar that I thought sounded better than that one with the BKP Nailbombs it had in it and I have zero interest in buying one now because the cost of them is insane. I got rid of it because I didn't want the Floyd Rose, which is fair cause I don't want one now, either... But it was a great guitar!

I also very much regret getting rid of my dad's old Sunn Concert Lead head. It was the first "real" amp I owned and I traded it for a 5150 combo because it didn't get me the sound I wanted at all... But I wish I would've kept it because it was my dad's from when he played and as I get older, I've realized how dumb it was to let go of that as a keepsake. I've actually had a WTB ad for it locally for over a year but nothing has come up. I still have the guy I traded it to's email and phone number but the phone is disconnected and he hasn't replied to emails.

Got a Maxon ST9 Pro+ on the way from Japan. Don't really need another overdrive but I'm thinking this one is different enough it's worth adding to the mix.

Agreed. I traded mine into GC and the employee testing it was considering buying it for this very reason.

Probably one of the new Kramer "The 84". Can't find anybody that says they're completely awful. I love the 80s look.

 

[Shask]

Weird. What'd you order.

Guitar stand and extra parts. I still didn't get the second package yet. Very weird.

I'm gonna get another package from China on Monday, that will probably get here faster than this thing from 2 hours down the road, lol.

Think i'm gonna try and grab a Holcomb 6. I have 2 sevens and love them, wanna see how the 6 goes with some different tunings.

I kind of want a Nightswan. I like the shorter scale length.

Yeah those are pretty neat too. I just want a maple neck and a single humbucker.

Delonge strat, gunslinger, M1, many more

 

[Spaced Out Ace]

Ltd M-1 Custom 87 Series is awesome. One humbucker, coil tap, PA-2 boost, and neckthru. Some are Korean, some are Indo. The difference is minimal, though Korean versions seem just a tad better.

I haven't posted in this thread for a long time, some things came and gone, but, it kind of feels I'm in the same spot as before...

... as far as gear coming in within the next few months, I'm aiming at a reamp box from Radial Engineering, most likely the JCR - https://www.radialeng.com/product/jcr

... anyone experienced with this thing? I'd be using the audio interface as a guitar DI paired with this thing...

What's your budget? I may be selling a Charvel CS single bridge hum, maple neck, floyd.

It’s flexible. Looking to spend between $800 - $2500 or so.

Not trying to rub it in but... that's a nice guitar. I forgot they made an RGA in the uppercut line.

Yeah, it was my biggest butthead move. I ended up trading it off for an RG7680-LTD1, and eventually traded that off for my current KxK Sii-7. Im now in the process of converting an JCRGA8420 into a 27" baritone RGA6UCS. Its been expensive to do, but its the only way i can correct the mistake. Ive tried to find an RGA6UCS ever since getting rid of mine, and no dice.

Go big, go for the core version. I love mine to death!

so I decided that I was gonna quit smoking this week after 25 years, and decided this would be a nice reward for me:

After your post I went searching for the RGA uppercut and got your FS listing here.

Absolutely post the JCRGA conversion.
