Every time I want to get something, he basically provides me with enough information to turn me off from ever buying another piece of gear....ever. Lol.

I know that there are 3 basses I wanna get (Spector Euro 6, Warwick Streamer 6, Stingray 4), I want to put some EMG-CS's into my Schecter, and I want to buy an Aguilar OBP-3 for my 8-string.

After I spend $4000+ on all that, then I'll work on my amp situation. I'm looking at a similar setup to Dirk Lance (his tone is similar to what I'm looking for, a little warm though) with some Demeter electronics.

I really want to build a decent pedal board too, but aside from a delay, I'm not sure of anything I'd want at this point.

Yeah man, I was heaps into effects when I was in high school. I still have them all lying around but I barely even get them out of their boxes these days. I love delay, I want to get an Akai Headrush II.

Sounds like a great pedal. I may just abandon the idea of a Boss DD-7 and RC-2 because I can get that Akai for cheaper than the other two combined. I'm not fancy with my effects, so that's perfect. Time to read some reviews.


Somebody get me some GASx...

Guitar Center + $30 = 8 small patch cables with lifetime warranties.

Guitar Center = Gay

None of these patch cables are the same size. They vary from about 3 inches to 4 feet.

Roast squirrel. Yum. I like to use a nice mesquite rub.

Lol I know, in the last 6 or so months it's probably taken up 3 months of my life. Think if I was able to apply that time to an instrument. Goddamnit I'd be shredding on guitar by now.

And yeah d3 is gonna own big time.
