Re: How happy are you with your gear?

A good stand alone compressor, wah, boost and ABY box and I'm completely done buying stuff.
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

The only thing I would perhaps be happier with is more warmth in my tone, other than I can't complain, as rare as that is for a guitarist.
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

There's always a few things I'd love to own but overall I'm perfectly content with what I've got and the noises that come out of the speakers. Between the 5-6 amps, 12+ guitars and 40 pedals... if I can't find a good sound the problem isn't the gear.

I'm also just about out of storage space so if I bought another amp then something would have to go! Hell, I just gave a guitar away to a buddy when the Talman arrived... too many guitars, too little room.
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

I love every thing I have, but I still want a couple more pedals, and there's a guitar I intend to get sometime next year.
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

I'm pretty happy with my rig now. I've got everything I need and the tones i want.

For now.

Who know's...? As my playing progresses I may have the need for an effect or specific tone... That's what GAS is all about...
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

Too many guitars (47), but there's a couple I"d like to sell. They'll always be more gear that I have GAS for.

But for the most part, my gear puts a smile on my face. I know who I am, and I have the gear that I like.

But that won't keep me from wanting a flametop 1960 VOS Sunburst Les Paul, a Mesa Mark V combo, a Martin D-18 Golden Era, a better 12-string electric and another G&L Legacy Special. But they're just icing on the cake.

Mark me down as a 4.9.

Re: How happy are you with your gear?

I'm very very satisfied with everything that I own. I have great guitars, and I have great amps. Not to sound like I'm bragging, but I think most people would kill just to have half of what I have. However, I'll always be buying more great pieces of gear. It's just the way I am.
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

I'm pretty content and the only thing I "think" I want to do is get a pedaltrain, T Rex pedal board (or similar) and a Voodoo Labs power supply and 4 new 5 - 6 mt guitar leads.
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

Giant rig: 100% happy

Big rig: 100% happy

Medium Big rig: 100% happy

Medium Small rig: 100% happy

Small rig: on the hunt, sniff, sniff.
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

Meh, I'm about in the middle. I get pretty decent sounds being that everything I own is on the lower end of midrange. I have two guitars to sell and three that I'd like to buy. I love effects but I only have one pedal (that I use) so I'll be on the hunt for more when I get financially sorted out. I really like both my amps but once I get back to gigging I'll probably want something bigger and better.

I have good days and bad days but overall I'm fairly happy with what I have at the minute. There's actually more pickups I want to try than guitars I want to own... :banghead:
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

I'm with Moose...if I can't get a good sound it ain't the tools!

I'm pretty happy with all the stuff I have but there will always be GAS for various things...
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

the decent tele, 2 decent LPs, and the marshall are really great so far.
all I want is a strat to go with the tele, and a 2x12 cab with nice speakers.

A DRRI would rule but the marshall seems to be just as good of an amp at different things, so I'd always like one to round things out but i'm not GASing per se
not like I am for a strat. soon, hopefully.
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

On a scale of 1 to 10......1 being not at all, and 10 being completely.......Im about an 8 right now. Do I see a piece of gear every now and then that I would love to have....of course!
 
Re: How happy are you with your gear?

I almost completely satisfied and could live without anything else .... but, there are other sounds that I like that require different gear.

I could use at least three amps and four or five more guitars.
