Unrealisticly:

Not a lot really, at the moment:

'70s maple-neck Strat (or most probably MIJ reissue)
VHII to change my American Standard Strat to HSS
Some aged Mules(?) for my LP Junior conversion project
Roland Cube 30X, just for fun
Visual Sound Jekyll & Hyde and Angry Fuzz
Korg Pitchblack tuner

And apart from guitar stuff:

New PC
1080P 42" Plasma TV
Multi-region Blu-ray player (I can dream, can't I?!)
Double glazing
New kitchen
New bathroom

Better start playing the lottery.....

Just a couple of things
1. An SG with Strat pickups, strat wiring, and strat materials...
2. A Semi-acoustic SG... :)

Indy, those guitars are truly hideous!!!! Never mind, eh, more nice guitars for the rest of us ;)

Only two things I'm GASsing for on the gear front, and both are in preparation

Custom guitar (I'll provide details in due course)
Bloody Murder (ordered an age ago, should be being made at the minute... I hope...!)

Otherwise:
More time!
New gaming rig
Our new vocalist to start so we can see if he's going to be good for what the band wants or not!! Exciting stuff!

Unrealistically:

Uli Jon Roth's guitar playing ability - that man is SO GOOD!!

Realistially:

70s maple neck strat or Music Man Sabre (probably a 70s neck etc for my Squier)
Xotic RC booster
Vox curly guitar lead
VH2
Booteek 1x12 cab
Couple more ClearTone leads
Steinberger
Korg Pitchblack tuner

(similar to Philly Qs list in fact)

Rory Gallagher strat

(Not one of those custom shop jobbies, I mean the Rory Gallagher strat)

Well, one may dream, mayn't one?
:lol:

EDIT: Does "GAS" include stuff you've ordered and paid for but are waiting for it to arrive? If yes, then the only realistic thing on my GASometer at the moment is a BKP Blackguard Flat 50 set :D

Not much for me!

Feline lion
PRS SC245
1960s Gibson Country and Western
Original Fender Bassman

I've been offered an SC245 for £1500.00 - is this good value? I'm not sure as not many seem to be sold on!

That woud just about do me!



I think I hate being indecisive.

PRS guitars seem to hold their value very well, that's the sort of price I'd expect to see for a S/H one in a shop.  But maybe a bit pricey for a private sale? 

Assuming it's all in excellent condition.

A semi decent acoustic.  That's all I need (as well as getting the rest finished - one day I'll find time).

Oh, and a new house (which is why I don't have any time at the minute)   :D

Other than that, I'm fairly happy with my kit (Patrick Eggle Berlin, Ibanez lawsuit Firebird, Cigar Box Guitar and Vox AD30VT - although my Applause acoustic will go when I get a better one).
Advice worth what you just paid for it.

My guitar gas is cured for the moment, I have come to realise I have just about the right number of guitars that they get played fairly regularly and there are soooo many other guitars I want it just seems pointless. Plus I have bonded with the guitars I have so don't want to get rid of any.

Guitar gas has been replaced by mega amp gas however.

I want something to complement my stiletto, I love the amp but it would be nice to have access to some different tones. I am thinking maybe trem-o-verb.

I love the lead tone of the stiletto in fluid drive but I just wish it had a more modern rhythm channel, of course the TOV is probably the opposite of the stiletto. Maybe I will just have to bite the bullet and do Bogner XTC or Diezel, maybe I will wait for the Mark V.

Oh yeah, I really want a Keeley Crybaby but we are totally skint at the mo. :(

Have I rambled enough ?
