Whatcha get for Christmas?

A satin-y new, hand-stained honeyburst American Special Precision with a few cosmetic mods...

The finish on these always catches my eye. Congrats on your new bass.
 
underwear, summer sausage, digital food thermometer, a dinner and a movie gift card set for me and m'lady, cash and GC gift cards (which I explicitly asked for cash not cards.)

Looks like I'll use the cash to get a Team Awesome Fuzz Machine, and the GC cards and some cash to most likely get a Zoom B3. Though there's also a Danelectro Longhorn up on the local CL listings.
 
Ashdown ABM 500 evo III, EHX freeze and volume pedal, a brown and a black leather strap, a new monster speaker cable, clothes, a watch, and a snazzy cheeseburger phone to go in my dorm next semester!

I'm sitting here staring at a 7-band eq and wondering what to do with myself... I'm not good at things like this. I like 3-band :'(
 
I got myself an almost mint Aria 1984 SB Elite II for my birthday and Christmas and then sent it right in for the tech to put the frets back on and correct the wiring which some gimp had rewired and messed up. I guess the repairs will be my happy new years present to me.
