What would you do with £1000

I'd go the amp route, I'd like a head + cab arrangement. I'd probably try to get as good a head as posible and a cheap cab to start, then save for a better cab.

At least you wont have to worry about getting stung by the import tax man. I've got a ding in my DY already  :(


I would get the Hello Kitty Fender Stratocaster in pink, get an Original Edge Locking Tremolo put in. One BKP of course and replace all the hardware. Put in a kill switch and some other goodies like LED's inlays and a laser on the headstock. I'd remove the Squire logo too...

Thats me got myself one slick San Dimas-esc Super Strat.

save it, or buy a new laptop...

if it had to be guitar stuff i'd get a nice p90 les paul copy and pimp it up, then spend the rest on handwound pickups for my guitars that dont have them.

Put it toward my super-amp that I'm always planning on buying. Powerball is favourite so far.

wow, your local music store has undergone some pretty extreme diversification!  :wink:  :lol:


and deg0ey- im extremely jealous... alienware pc's/laptops just look SO cool.


i'd probably buy a guitar, some pickups, and a hotplate. could probably just squeeze all that into £1000.

Probably a Cornford of some kind.


+1, i'd probably put it towards a hurricane or something.

problem with the question is it says "shop"... there's very little in shops over here that interests me very much...  :cry:

Yeah, I should have stated my intention better, the idea was that your purchase should be to do with your rig / guitar / music or similar. I should have just said 'To spend on your music gear'.

If I actually had £1000 I'd pay off my overdraft, but that's not as much fun or as interesting reading.
