We need to start a support group, so we can keep ourselves focused and on track. That way we don't screw up our savings and cause ourselves to miss out on the pll.

Dammit kosta, that is the worst ide....... best idea yet. That Clusterflux sounds amazing too. I really should buy one of those now before they are discontinued, then I'd have to spend twice as much just for a used one. Gotta spend money to save money! amirite?

I could just start buying hi-end recording gear to run my guitar through. I could drop 3 G's for a tube compressor. Then pull the eq section out of a vintage API console for an EQ pedal... a Neve preamp for my overdrive. Then get a 2 inch tape machine for my tape delay and flanging needs, and buy a cave for my reverb. I'll have the most legit rig ever!

Sort of. I'm just tired of being disappointed/underwhelmed by what I buy.

Spend that money on a new hobby. Take up wood carving, or DIY some effects.

Some random shit I've ordered that's worth a look:

Disaster Area Amps MIDI Controller for that Timeline/Space combo. It's a friggin' godsend for the Timeline, opens up the looper's functionality and makes scrolling through presets much more convenient. And it's small, which is key.

Infanem Compact Faye Sing

Iron Ether FrantaBit

Mid-Fi Pitch Pirate Deluxe

Dr. Scientist Ultimate Trem

Eric's Poly-Grace when he inevitably flips it.

The Clusterflux is a great idea though...

Sounds like it's time to get a bigger amp.

And, before you even say anything, you always, ALWAYS need a bigger amp.

This was my first thought too but that $300 budget may not suffice.

Maybe save that shit, build the gear fund??

I lol'd

(probably too hard)

snatch up some of the kooky rocktron gear before people realize that they're actually really awesome.

or teh klonz

+1 on the modular synth building idea.

Personally, I've been looking into video synthesis for my next gear accumulating expedition. I've always liked the idea of being able to influence both what I hear and see using one instrument.

Either that or keep building the gear fund.

I've been thinking about building a 16 step sequencer...not sure if you have that, but since people started talking about synths

I have money, and yeah I'm supposed to save it and use it to pay for college, but it earns basically no interest in the bank and my loans are interest-free until I'm done with college, so why not spend it on things that I can enjoy and sell again later for a small loss? And then I end up with way more stuff than I actually use, and now I'm running out of things I want to try.

Eh? Eh?

Ok, I'm running out of guitar/bass gear that I want to try.

...Right. Gear.

I knew that.

If this is a frequent issue, you could take up smoking?
