What kind of equipment would you replicate?

If you woke up on Captian Picard's Enterprise what musical equipment would you ask the replicator to produce? Would it be new or worn in?
I'm thinking 10-year-old 57 Precisicion in Artic white and a new 65 Portaflex. Then I'd head for the holodeck and jam with Booker T and the M.G's and a host of others.

I'd replicate a replicator I could bring back with me to my time ... a personal home version.

Make it so number one. And replicate another for me as well. Engage

Something from Picard's era, of course. I assume it'd be mind controlled and somehow make me sound like less of a hack.

Jerry Garcia's rig. He had some sweet stuff. Also, Tony Banks's and Garth Hudson's keyboards. I'm a synth geek.

According to Wikipedia: A replicator can create any inanimate matter, as long as the desired molecular structure is on file, but it cannot create antimatter, dilithium, latinum, or a living organism of any kind; in the case of living organisms,

Yeah, dusty tweed Bassman here I come.

Call me a traitor to the Low End if you want, but I'd replicate a 50's Gibson J-185, then head on down to Data's quarters, gently remove the classical guitar from his hands and say "put down that pantywaist plunker for a minute and try a real classic". After letting him grok the true nature of steel strings for a couple of seconds, I would then conclude my visit with the suggestion to "access all files on Tommy Emmanuel"

Mission Accomplished, I would then reward myself for a job well done by replicating a Martin OM-45 Deluxe with AAA curly Koa back and sides, before carrying it back to my own quarters, where my beloved Jazz Special Fretless was resting in it's stand (just like Riker's trombone) waiting patiently for my return
