That Tele looks like an old Gibson Melody Maker that I sold for my brother, that was sanded down to bare wood and never refinished, then coated with about 30 years of cigarette tar and "upgraded" with gaudy gold hardware.

My current set up is pretty much perfect. But it's the little tweaks that tug at me, Since it's generally guitar>boost>amp I'm wondering if higher output pickups would suit me better, and just do away with the boost.

I am pretty friggin happy right now.

Preferably I'd like a Tube amp... or a TUBE set-up.
I have a princeton chorus SS amp and it is ok, seeing as I only play at home. But when I use a Overdrive pedal with it, things start to sound like shit.
Actually I am gassing for a Traynor YBA-1 or 2 BASSMASTER head, there are two at a local shop but I don't have $400.

I could always use a Coronado

I'd still really like one of those Classic Vibe Tele's. I'd also quite like the Squier J Mascis when it comes out too. I've been thinking about selling by Japanese CAR B&B Jazzmaster to pay for both, but i'm thinking that I might regret doing that.

The T-Thru is filed under "old models", as it's not being made anymore.

I've already got my coral Super-Sonic done, and picked up a White Penguin Billy Bo and a Squier Jaguar this year. Those were the gassiest.

I want a hollow Les Paul. The 2008 Standard is often pretty light, but you have to pick up a bunch before you find the good one.

Something orange.

John Bolin is doing Billy Bo Pros for $5000. A mini, single pickup Billy Bo.

At the moment...

Tokai Les Paul goldtop (one of the cheaper made in china models)
Squier Mustang Bass in sunburst
Boss DD-5
Boss PS-3
Boss TR-2

Hopefully I'll be able to get my mitts on these within the next year or so. I don't see myself owning my dream Jazzie for a while, as they're rather expensive.

Edit: Oh and a Seymour Duncan SJAG2 for my Jaguar. Getting rather tired of the lace sensor thats already in there. Needing more output and power.

It's basically a 50W, EL34 powered, tube rectified Twin in a head form.
Dude wants way too much for it, so I'm going to wait and see him fail at selling it until he gets a clue.
