I used to have an absolute shit ton of gear. And as I got older (and more adult bills came and went) I parted ways with most of it. Up until recently I only had a Frankenstrat I pieced together and a MIJ Aria Les Paul type, that I played though a POD or a little Kustom Hybrid.
Fast forward to this year... The old bug bit me again, and I started piecing together more gear these last few months. Here's what I've added:
-Fender Tele (American Special in Vintage Blonde). Man, did I miss having a maple fingerboard and a good old USofA Fender.
-Fender Blues Junior (Tweed NOS). Mmmm...Fender guitars sound great though Fender Amps.
-Epiphone Les Paul Standard. You know, I always had Les Pauls and I missed my old ones. So I went the cheaper route. This thing plays ***** great. I can't say enough about how impressed I am with a 500 dollar guitar.
-I added a Fulltone OCD and a Carbon Copy because I didn't have many pedals left (All I still had was a Crybaby and a Phase 90) and I wasn't going to run a POD in front of my new tube amp.
Digging my set-up right now. It really simple and sounds killer. Perfect for me just jamming at the house. Eventually I'll probably snag an old US Peavey Wolfgang Special. Love the necks on those and would like one guitar aith a Floyd.
