What are you GASsing for?

Alembic triple Omega buckeye burl
Bass Extravaganza.nl Schizo
Ibanez SR5005

I've been on a dirt/fuzz kick lately...

So, I'm gassing for:
Catalinbread – SFT
Fuzzrocious - Dark Driving
Malekko - Diabolik
Wren & Cuff - Tall Font Russian

Other stuff:
Iron Ether - Nimbus
EHX – MicroPog
George L's Cables
4-5 channel looper pedal

So much gas, so little money....

the dark driving would be the one fuzzrocious pedal I would like to purchase. I do like the dark warm overdrive sound this pedal delivers. The rat tail would be my other choice.
 
A Warmoth five string fretless neck for my Victor Bailey Jazz. Other than that? I have pert near everything I need, I'm just waiting on my head to show up from Demeter. Probably another couple of weeks.
 
TC Electronics Alter Ego x4 Delay/Looper



I'm even selling my RE-20 Space Echo to fund it! (As well as some other stuff)


Fabe, let me know what you think of it when you get it. I want that pedal bad too. LOVE delay. It's my fav effect for sure. And that original alter ego had always been on my radar. Just never came across one at the right time. And I won't be buying a damn thing for quite a while. But I'll have a hella amp ;) oh yeah.

Oh I will! I've had my eye on an Alter Ego for 3 years now and almost bought when but the same day heard about the x4. The EchoFlanger alone is worth the price of admission (had a friend that has one and his dad bought it back in the day).
 
GAS?
First, let me say if I never get another bass or guitar or amp--I'm okay with that--unless maybe, if I need to replace something.

But that doesn't mean there aren't things I'd be interested in getting.

Basswise-
Since it's only been four months since I bought an Ibanez SR500F, this is kind of a tough one.
But if I do get another bass I could see getting something like a Jazz Bass, or maybe a fan fret bass.

Ampwise-
Bass amps-nothing specific, but a small bass amp that has more power than my Tarynor TBM10 woudl be cool. Traynor makes some nice larger amps
Or an Ampeg min stack.
Guitar amps (Since I play guitar as well)-a smaller watt Hughes & Kettner would be cool. Acombo would probably suit me better, but a small head & cab would be cool as well.

Pedals-
I wouldn't mind a reverb pedal (in case I'm playing an amp without reverb), an octave pedal, a harmonizer, maybe a volume pedal. And a pedal board. (one of these days I might just make one.)
 
Dingwall ABZ6

Strymon Möbius
Strymon BigSky
Source Audio Orbital
Source Audio MWBD
MXR M81 Pre
H9 Core
Cioks Ciokolate

Mesa M9
Fearful 12/6/1cube


If I purchased everything on this list new I'm looking at way over $6k... Not bad, I just hope nothing cool is released until I acquire these items first.
 
I'll break this down differently than some of my previous posts in this thread.

IMMEDIATE, CAN-BARELY-CONTAIN-IT GAS:
Arrival of my Beat Buddy
Footswtiches for Beat Buddy and Infinity Looper

NEAR-FUTURE GAS:
Digitech The Drop to A/B vs. Morpheus Droptune
Source Audio Digital Expression Pedal to probably replace Dual Expression Pedal and Ernie Ball VP Jr. 25k

INTERMEDIATE-TERM GAS:
A fuzz (still deciding what is most interesting!)
Other dirt for fun (OFD, Amptweaker, TAFM, IE)
Iron Ether Subterranea

IF I HAD UNLIMITED RESOURCES GAS:
Strymon Mobius
Eventide H9
Massive MIDI setup (looper/controller, Source Audio Hub and other goodies)
TWA Great Divide 2.0
Akai Deep Impact

IF THE PRODUCTS EVER EXIST GAS:
Source Audio Synth
Any new things on the synth/pitchshifting front

NON-EFFECTS GAS:
Might finally be time to move on from cheap amps.
