GMC Forum _ GEAR & PRODUCTION _ Kevins's New Gear!

Posted by: kevin-riff-after-riff Jul 11 2008, 09:08 PM

Hey ive been changing and updating my gear obsessively in the past 6 months so i thought id share lol.
Firstly, I sold my Marshall AVT275 because it was just tooo big and loud, and bought a line 6 x3 live. then I sold my Jackson RX10D I dont remember why, I think it was cause I just didnt play it much and it wasnt really my kind of guitar. So with some money I mought a Epiphone SG custom which i did a review of and swaped the pickups out, and I am still lovin the sound, feel, neck access and coolness of 3 pickups now . And soon I found myself not playing my beloved TC-90 because I felt the SG was better (what? epiphone better than fender? i dunno, its just me i guess lol) and thought itd be nice to have a guitar with floating trem and after around a month of asking around i finally found someone who wants to get rid of their whammy bar guitar, and it was a Ibanez RG2570e pretty awesome guitar! I just bought some lovely blue velvet pu for the middle and is still searching on ebay for two uber cool humbuckers . ANYhow my daddy found a laney amp from the 70s and bought it for me, with my money i was abit surprised because it is a 2 12" celestion speakers and a solid state amp combo and all tat for £40!! and it was local but I dont really like the sound of it so I think im gonna sell that because my room is too little for too many thingss! andd, great news..... - suspense, I am gonna go pick up a Blackheart little giant 1x12" amp tommrrow i been listening to samples and did lots of research after i saw it on ebay and i loved it so i bidded for it and "won" it so im hoping it will be gooooood then ill do a coolass review

I think I have GAS if thats what its called but in process of that I dont spend that much of my money really I just end up selling and swaping and buying alot of gear which is good because the >(less than) £350 I got is still intact in my bank which is great

But I think my crazy guitar gear changing journey has come to an end (at least for an while) because now I have pretty much everything I need- stopbar guitar, whammybar guitar, allll the FX you ever neeed (x3 live) and soon to join, a blackheart little giant. oh and a random morley wah pedal from a long time ago that i still use occasionally .

thanks for reading if you did
now im gonna go update my signature =] and then do some other stuff....

Hey Kevin, our GMC veteran

gear is cool don't worry if you have GAS, lack of money will cure it no problem
