Trust me. You DO NOT want to see my booty - least of all at this festive time. (The dried fruit reeks havoc.)

I hope to have something to hang on the tree before the month is over. Until then, I just ordered a George L's snack pack, enough to make two short jumpers and see if I like the stuff.

Nice start. Fine Capo for sure and those tubes will definitely bring an amp back to it's full glory!

Re: NEW CHRISTMAS GEAR THREAD!!!
Got two incoming:
1) Carvin AM6, grabber blue, stainless steel, 5 pieces maple/mahogany neck. It's a cool multiscale model (25.5-26.6") and would be my first Carvin, just giving it a try.
2) Aristides 060. Not a single bit of wood on this guitar. It's built out of a composite material called Arium, and fingerboard is richlite. Requested some custom offset inlay pattern, and it will be Dutch Orange... though I just can't seem to settle between Dutch Orange or Deep Sky Blue, argh!
Gotta admit though, in the 10 years I've played guitar, I never once received guitar-related christmas presents...

Tweak Fuzz
2nd Dano BLT Slap Echo
2nd Dano Hash Browns Flanger
I want to keep buying pedals until their gravity pulls me in like a black hole and crushes me.

I've got one of the original series Rumble 75's. I think that's a highly underrated amp for anybody.

Re: NEW CHRISTMAS GEAR THREAD!!!
I went to Guitar Center's website, made a wish list of a bunch of relatively inexpensive things for my wife and the girls to get, and then printed it off. Mrs. BriGuy and I went shopping tonight and I sat and played guitars while she worked the list, so I'm gonna have some useful stuff for a change!
I've had a hankering lately for a P-90 guitar of some sort... wanna see how I like them, but GC didn't have squat in stock. Didn't like the Wildkat, but played a cheap-a$$ Epiphone Les Paul Special and was pleasantly surprised at how good it felt (for a $99 guitar). I was kinda having fun with it when she came and found me, so she disappeared again and bought it! I know it's nothing fantastic, but it'll be fun! Bummer is that I have to wait until Christmas and then act surprised for my girls' sake!

Re: NEW CHRISTMAS GEAR THREAD!!!
I got my Christmas earlier this fall with a great deal on a Custom Shop Martin D-28 (AMAZING GUITAR!!!!) from Guitar Center, then turned around a couple of days later and found a FABULOUS deal on a Mesa Mark V:25--the full stack.
The D-28MC is without a doubt the loudest, richest-toned and resonant dread of any brand that I have ever played. It vibrates in my hands like a hollow-body in front of a Marshall stack. I can only imagine what this guitar will be like in twenty years or so.
I already have several amps, but the Mark V:25 might be the best of the bunch. Used it at an all-ages benefit concert on Thanksgiving day and got tons of compliments. It sounded SO good--I just had a big smile on my face all day--and that high lasted about a week. Can't wait to use it again.
So I swore I was done buying gear for the next TWO years!!! These were great deals, but it's still a big outlay of cash.
That lasted until earlier this week, when I saw an ad on the CL for a well-used Martin D-41 at an unbelievable price. The guitar has some wear on it but cleaned up nicely, and after a new set of strings and a couple of minor tweaks, it's a keeper. It was less than what many people pay for a used HD-28, and I just couldn't resist. Miss Leslie--my boss, confidante, roadie, paramour and best friend was a little skeptical at first, but once she saw and heard it after it was polished up--it has definitely won her approval. (Yea! Don't have to sleep on the porch!!! Yea!) I love the bling, and the woods and tone and playability are top-notch.
All three of these pieces were fabulous deals, and I feel VERY, VERY fortunate and blessed.
So I think Santa's done for the year--probably won't even get socks, underwear or hankies under the tree this year.
