Whoops. Bought this Champagne Sparkle Jet. Always wanted one, loved that this one has chrome and not gold hardware. Sounds great too! But I do need to part with a guitar or three to really justify it Vintage, US Custom shop, Japanese Custom Shop? It’s a Made in Japan model, I think from the mid 90’s?

I do love me a Gretsch Jet. I would post mine in solidarity but I don’t think I have a pic of it on this phone. Plus it isn’t really new to me at this point but it does have a rather unique top.
Cheers, Geoff

Not new but sort of. Took gwlee7 's advice and took my 40-year-old Jackson Randy Rhoads Custom (#618) and beloved Epiphone Sheraton II to the guys at Murphy's Music in Irving, TX and had the RR tuned up from ages ago when my good friend and RR fan put a block under the Kahler which f-d it up despite good intentions and had the Sheraton completely refretted. Bought the latter in '96 and like many Epiphone's if you get a good one it's golden. Murphy's absolutely killed it and it plays amazing now. Jackson gets a wall mount. So good to have it preserved and plays amazing still.

Excuse me if I repeat anything from before. A mint time capsule Telefunken U47 from ‘56. Retro 2A3 NOS tubes love it. Buzz Audio DBC in black that sounds so great. Stam SA 1178 & the SA609 both are seriously made I love the little twists on the Stam stuff too. Waiting for the new stereo Fultec and the SA800g. Lots of DIY mics I’ll upgrade. Won’t need to upgrade the Vamisound’s though as they come with such quality parts. The Zvukofor Tanhx desktop saturator which will be fun fore mangling and saturation. The Phoenix Audio Ascent 2 which is like Neve up a level. Some more synths and modules. 2 AML 1081 500 series I’m really looking forward to using. An old Selmer bass and guitar amp head. 2 Weight Tank 72’s. The new Earthworks bass drum mic that is stunning compared to anything I’ve ever heard. 2 Periscope mics that will be in the room for anything I ever record now. Changed my Serpent Splice’s for Blueys as they are so much more easy to navigate and sound as good for that Rev A or B sound. Various European tube mic pre amps. I have a shopping list for Beesneez which I’m really excited. I guess that’s most of it I can think of.

Bought a used SH Quad Gama from VK I saw on the verb. I love stuff that isn't being made anymore and bought it for the return from the Little Labs Redeyes for mixing with pedals in a more streamlined way. I think it's going to be the balls. Love the SH stuff I have now.
That and two Burl BAD8's to shift up the hardware inserts. Will not sell the BAD4's I'll pull out in those places though. Again, the not-made stuff means something to me.

Just picked up a 1 watt Marshall head.
I have wanted a Marshall since maybe 1977. Now I have a wee one.
Cheers, Geoff

This look awesome and I know you do a lot of drums

Love the Epiphone Sheraton II - mine is a very early one plays like a dream and has a fabulous tone - they really don't make em' like that anymore

I just got a DIYRE Colour Palette 500 series module in the mail. They’re raising the price of it, right after this sale. I think I’ll go for an Implode, MN-50, and Toneloc Colour modules when the time comes.

Bought a pair of Dynaudio Core 59 monitors. Should have them tomorrow. It's one of those purchases that I hope goes well. They may end up being too large for me studio but I really wanted to give them a try.
