Yeah, I'm going to be scaling back a bit. Got a bunch I'm just not using. I've posted them FS/FT on other forums, but I'll have to wait till I've amassed 50 posts here before I can put them up. They may well be on eBay before then.
I'm not really a collector. I just spend a lot of time searching for stuff, and can generally find it at a good price. If I'm happy with the price, I'll buy it, and if I like it I'll keep it. If it's not for me I'll try and trade it, or if that fails sell it on. Just a hobby that has perhaps gotten a little out of hand!

Same here with pedals, if i see one in a Cash Converters cheap i have to buy it (if i have the money). Sold quite a few though and a lot of the time the day does come when you regret it.

My setup:

This weekends acquisitions + the newly refurbished Bronco amp which I took to SJ for the weekend.

You definitely have good taste in pedals (My smaller gig board)


That Super-Sonic looks intriguing with the Blue Pickguard.

I check CashConverters, and Cash Generator and any similar stores regularly. I get my hair cut in Stirling as an excuse to visit their CashConverters, and Barton(?) Street Music. I like to have a few reasons for a trip somewhere!
But yeah, if somethings the right money I'm having it. Even if I already have it I'll pass it on to friends at cost, or keep it for a trade.

I found a couple vintage waterslide decals from the 50s and 60s at a thrift store. I had some serious doubts about being able to apply 50 year old decals but they sorta turned out alright.


Here's one of a chick getting mauled/whatever by a panther.


Some sort of Mexican travel badge for a car window on the mexi JM. Befitting.


This is how I like my drums setup. Nice and loooooowwww.


I just bought this. It's an Akai EIE Pro. Sofar, It's been playing remarkably nice with Cubase and Abelton. No weird disconnects or random static buildups in the preamps, like I used to have with my old M-Box. Fuck that thing sucked.


This is my revised board. The Grunge and Bass Chorus are for... Bass, exclusively.


Here's a little group shot of my setup

Nice Jazzmasters!

Thanks! Yeah I picked it up a couple of months ago when I was visiting Toronto. Got it for CAN$495 from the awesome Capsule Music.

It already had the pearloid blue pickguard fitted by the previous owner. I wasn't sure about it at first and was considering changing it, but then realised I loved it. Since getting home I've had Dragonfire Screamers installed, with a coil split in the bridge. It sounds incredible. I probably prefer the single coil sound to the full humbucker; I'm gonna get the neck pickup split as well. It's my favourite guitar - so cool and unique.

Haha wow that's crazy! Thanks so much for not buying it.

I bought it at the start of April. How long had it been sitting in the store for?

Oh man, that is a nice set up you got there.

Thanks mans! I'm really happy with the guitars and my new place, actually. After being stuck living with all my gear in a 10 x 15 foot room for a year and a half, I gotta say, it's especially nice.

My memory is a little fuzzy, but it was there around fall 2011 I believe, or maybe it was early 2012... Capsule is the guitar mecca in Toronto as far as I am concerned.

so recently I've had to sell almost all my gear and have just started putting stuff back together. anyway, I have this keyboard setup now:



Roland JV-90 synthesizer, Yamaha QX5 sequencer, Alesis Microverb II reverb, Boss BX-600 mixer (not hooked up right now, but can be used for all kinds of stuff). Also, not pictured, I just got a Roland D-550 (the classic 80s digitial synth).

WOah.... Diezel !!! That must have cost a pretty penny.

Also, how do you like the Tubemeister ?

Nice gear !!

Its a Bit shaky, but its all i have of my amp currently, but my amp set up is an Orange Tiny Terror going into Black Heart 1x12 Cabinet That I painted Green, and the Tiny Terror is also going into a Fender Tube Amp for more volume. I call it the ghetto stack. But it sounds really nice to me.


My pedalboard, MXR Carbon Copy-Danelectro Fish N Chips EQ, used mainly as a boost to a EHX Big Muff with Tone Wicker its on a piece of wood i found with some velcro on it. I am planning on getting a pedaltrain JR some time soon hopefully and some more pedals for my board or putting some more back on, once i get the board and a correct pedal charger for the YJM overdrive


Extra Stuff.( Guvnor, Cry Baby Classic, YJM overdrive, NS-2, SansAmp GT2, GHS Boomers, My box of Goodies, extra stuff)

My new ZT lunchbox... in It's place on the amp tower

Given that the Tiny Terror only has speaker outputs, how are you doing this? Running a speaker output in a guitar input on another amp is a good way to kill at least one of your amps..
