Not technically my purchase. Purchased for me, by my parents.

Found one of these used at GC yesterday, an Ibanez SRX700. One of the higher end, neck-through Ibanez basses for just $315, I almost poo poo myself. It was missing two knobs but I asked if they had any that would fit the shaft and they said they would try to find matching knobs and give them to me for free. I just love the look of it, it's kind of got an Ibanez-meets-Leo Fender feel to it, and it's in the awesome honey burst finish pictured. It's my birthday present from my parents, we're going to pick it up today.

Oh, a Moser Bastard V. Those are the silliest loving things I've ever seen. Sillier than the Dean not-pointy-enough-put-points-onto-the-points Razorback.

Peavey MAX 700, got one on ebay for $400 + shipping, and then probably an Avatar B410 NEO or maybe a B212 NEO instead. Probably the 410 first and then a 212 later for the full stack.

mofolotopo posted:Yeah, I'm trying to figure out which one of those is sillier. Obviously the megatar is. Those crazy percussion instruments that you never see outside of an elementary school music room have limited utility, but goddamn are they fun. I remember this single contrabass xylophone bar I saw at TMEA last year that was like two feet long and sounded a pitch lower than my bass can probably go, it was loving awesome.

jasonvoorhees posted:just got this last week: Is that a fretless, flame maple fingerboard? I don't think I've ever seen such a thing. I really love the spalt top though. It's a lovely bass and if you ever find yourself needing to hide from predators in the forest you could just hide behind it!

UberNoke posted:What is this? It looks like a regular precision bass but with an extra pickup from the Big Block Precision. The fourth knob leads me to think it's active? If it were passive I would love to purchase one of these to replace that humbucker with a Dark Star. Regardless, it's a great looking bass. American Deluxe P-Bass. The Standard Deluxe has a J pickup at the bridge.

Rode NT1000. It will be at my local GC in about a week. I also got the shockmount to go with it, along with a boom and a pop filter. It will be used to record my voice and my upright. Bitchin'.

Oddly enough, thanks to a GBS thread making fun of the new facebook marketplace, I bought an old Yamaha F-35P from a girl at my school today. $80 with case, in great condition. This is a different guitar, same model. Went and got some new strings for it, hopefully taking it in for a setup tomorrow after work. It's good to have a beater 6-string around.

w00trow wilson posted:It's a neat idea, but I hope you're ready to pay through the nose for a pickup that "looks cool". yeah, i think a matched pair is like $280 and individually they're $150 apiece. Make sure the sound is what you're looking for.

I ordered a Hartke VXL Bass Attack (http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/BassAttack} but I think I may return it when it arrives. I want something that will bring out more upper harmonic content without sucking out low end like my TS-9 or full on distortion like my Big Muff, any ideas?

IT CAME IT CAME IT CAME I didn't notice it before but all the hardware has this really cool matte stainless finish. it's incredibly light, as well. [edit] and I haven't taken the strap off my bass, but the buttons appear to be compatible with Schaller strap locks. [edit 2] upon further investigation it seems that the toggle will not stay in the bridge pickup position I'll need to take a look at that.

God help me, I can't stop buying things. By the time I graduate I am going to owe my limbs and firstborn child to the College Loan Corporation. This is more or less what I bought on eBay today, a Crate Palomino V32. Imagine the "30" in this picture is a "32." And that someone tore it off the amp. It's one of the older models when the Palomino brand was still labeled as a Crate and had black tolex and grille cloth, and was made in the US. $300 including shipping.

three Tungsol 12AX7s, quad of Groove Tubes EL84s, and an Eminence Private Jack speaker for my Crate V32. More gain and a nicer, less-muddy speaker. Yippee. Tubes are not very interesting to look at so I'll skip the pics of those.
