The Gear You're Wishing For

Post by Don Hughes »

What's the stuff out there that you don't have, but with you did at this moment?

I think for me, it's the new Yamaha Motif XF keyboard that just came out, and a keyboard stand made by a guy named Patrick Slaats from Holland. He makes custom stands, and is the guy who made Jordan Rudess' stand.

I think there's a rotating stand called the Twister Stand from here in the states (360 Stands I think is the name of the company), but I'm not sure.

Hey Jarrett, I still remember when you finally got your PRS Guitar!

A brand-new Yamaha Maple Custom drumkit. Wish I had the $$$, cause my current kit is really starting to show her age.

They don't and probably will never make the synth module/SMF player that I want:

1 rack space
internal power supply
playback sequencer with songlist
footswitch jack for start/stop
USB or Smart card port for SM files
GS sound library--don't care much about the other gazillion sounds

Let me know if you see one.

As far as keyboards, I'd like to see them add samples like grand piano, organ, strings, brass, etc to all those little 3 octave analog modeling synths.

I already have 3 PRS guitars, but I might have to get another limited edition Korina or maybe a hollow body to replace the Starcaster.

Another POD X3 Live. It's the best purchase I have ever made and the only thing that could top it would be two of them.

Maybe a black Gibson Explorer with gold hardware... connected to a POD X3 Live.

Hahaha yeah I miss that guitar! I sold it about a year ago and bought a Fender Tele! Tele has a thinner sound which is better for our sound! I remember when you got your Motif!

My new wife is buying me an amp next year, I'm looking at the new muiti watt Mesa's or a Bogner Ecstasy.
Pour me another one, cause I'll never find the silver lining in this cloud.

Your kit might feel the same about you. :D

I'm pretty content with all of my equipment, though I wouldn't mind a matching HyDrive 4x10 for larger shows, especially if there isn't full FOH reinforcement for bass. Once I'm back to a full gig schedule, I may pick one up.

While I've never been a huge Ampeg guy, I am digging those SVT-VRs and SVT Heritage series heads. Unfortunately, Ampeg doesn't seem to make an all-tube head that takes an 8 ohm load. All of my cabs are 8 ohms, and I'm not switching out to all 4 ohm cabs or unneccessarily dragging extra cabs just to have the proper impendance load.

How about...

I would just be glad to have all of the gear back I freakin' sold for cash :D

But... a Lexicon PCM42 Delay and a Lexicon PCM60 Reverb would probably go nice in my empty rack!

I would like to just have any electric kit that's decent for an affordable price just to have something to practice as my one drumset is definately showing it's age.

Biggest lustful item for me right now:

http://www.bassspecialties.com/images/basses/spect6.jpg


I'd love to run it thru the new EBS Fafner amp. Then throw in a few pedals like EBS' Valvedrive or some Markbass pedals, and I'd be a very happy basser right now!!!


And the list goes on....
