Sounds amazing. Found it for $45 and I think it might have saved me at least $200 on other pedals I no longer need.

Sweet deal. A lot of people over on Talkbass don't seem to like it, but I get a lot of use out of mine. If the guitarist's distortion is on, my ODB3 is on

While I love talkbass, the folks in their effects forum are kinda elitest pricks. I would rather have "Sound Great and built like a tank" rather than "Sounds

and fragile like a egg"

UUUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! I want this so badly but for some reason I cannot pull the trigger because of the $800 price tag.

Going to head down to a local store that I've dropped three or more paychecks at in the last couple of years and see if they can swing me a deal.

I really want one too, but I really can't justify it because I already own a J bass

Same here, still want one though.

GK Backline 210 bass combo-

That is a really slick unit. Any idea if it could drive a 1x15 also? If so my search for live rig may forever be done.

The FedEx man arrived at my job today!

<sorry for the cell phone shots, only camera I have.

Brice HXB-405 5-String Nat B

SX SPB-62 4+1 5-String 3TS

The Brice 5er is the most beautiful bass I've ever played. I can't wait to string some DRs onto it.

This

or these

Haven't decided yet. Leaning towards the Jampaks because I use the other three pretty often and it would be nice to have the collection.

Went into the only guitar store in my area to get some allen wrenches. Walked out with...

Not bad for $65. Granted it doesn't turn my electrics into a Gibson Hummingbird or a Rainsong by any stretch of the imagination. However it is a nice little box to experimenting with clean guitar sounds. Can't wait to record something with it.

Not really sure where to post this, but I thought this was a good a place as any; I would surely like to buy one. Can anyone identify this guitar? Its from some defunct band's myspace, there are a couple other pictures but none much better.

I believe it is a Schecter Stargazer.

Recently bought a fender hot rod deluxe. But it's just too drat loud, big, and heavy for apartment use. Cleans sound good, but it had several little issues that bugged me, so i decided to trade it out for something more appropriately sized.

I decided on the blues junior NOS. I picked it over the regular blues junior because I like the sound of the jensen speaker, and love the look of tweed amps. Right out of the box it sounds great. Beautiful lush cleans, good reverb and overdrive. Can't wait to see how it is after the speaker breaks in, and possibly a tube swap. Running an MI audio crunch box in it for the heavier tones.

Clapton? Is that you?

Picked up an Ampeg B1RE bass head for $150.

I don't have my bass on hand, so I plugged in my Ibanez to test it out. This thing sounds great. I bought it for my upright bass, but now I'm wishing I could use it for guitar.

The B1RE can drive a 6x10/8x10?

If not for Xmas then definitely with my tax refund next year.

More or less the perfect guitar to fill in the holes in my guitar collection.

Got a new acoustic guitar. Martin DX1AE. Sounds and feels amazing. I was a little skeptical of the HPL body, but it was in my budget, and goddamn this thing is such a huge improvement over my cheapie 15-year-old Sigma. Solid as a rock, and sounds awesome. The electronics are cleverly hidden, and it sounds decent DI, but I think a nice mix of acoustic and DI would sound fantastic. Loving it. Dig that neck, homie.

Read a review that the neck can be pretty temperamental with humidity. Are you having any issues?

Bought myself a "congrats, you got a job!" present.

Yamaha FG730S. Liked it a lot, it was in my price range, and the rosewood back and sides give it a nice umph in the bass that I really like.

Until it gets here, here's a stock photo

Might have to pull the trigger on this as well. The neck on my LTD Xtone is just beyond hosed. I guess I shouldn't be surprised for what i paid for it but I expected it to last more than 8 months.
