The old question again

What should I buy?

I've sold a few things and I have the Royal Permission to purchase a new bit of gear, should I so wish.

My stable currently consists of 2 telecasters (one early '60s spec and the other '50s specs), a strat and a Les Paul. All of which are 'just so'. I've also one small body acoustic...an Epiphone EL-00.

Ampwise I've a Blues Junior, a Fame GTA-15 and a Roland Cube60.

The only notions I have are, 1) a bigger bodied acoustic, 2) a 335 style of some sort, 3) a thinline tele or 4) an Orange Tiny Terror Combo.


I'm in no hurry to decide, and I might just wait until something 'finds me' anyway...but suggestions and ideas would be welcome.

I'm surprised you've any more space.

Of your notions, I'd be looking for a bigger bodied acoustic.

How about a rehearsal drum kit, or even a portable stage lighting scheme...I used: http://www.audio-video-furniture.com...e&SrcID=293761

I mount it on my PA speaker stand, and can point it towards the band, or towards a dance floor.

That is an issue, to be honest.

But there's still some room under the bed.
