Thought I'd get this one started up as we haven't had a good chat about nifty gadgets and wonderous instruments for a while.

I'm really getting back into my drumming now after buying a new HHX china and Gav Harrison's rhythmic illusions book. Really would love a new snare from the Black Panther range by Mapex. Hopefully this beauty:



Its an all rounder really as thats kind of me in a nutshell. It's relatively cheap but still expensive for my current financial situation.

Hey ho, student loan, due next week and gone the week after  :lol:

nice drum, though.

I've got my eye on Windows 7, an M-Box Mini and Pro Tools for essentials, but I'm also drooling over this...

I'm still dreaming of a Fantom, but I'll probably have to set my sights on a Juno G or D for consideration next year.

GAS as it's known in these parts.

I've got my eye on a new 5 string bass. Very reasonably priced. Plays lovely and has got the tone I'm after.

I would dearly love to go all boutique, but it would be wasted on me. I'd have to practice a LOT just to become crap.
It's not the winning or even taking part. It's the arsing about that counts.

I'm waiting for the next big workstation..... Whoever releases it!!!! :lol:
I'd love a new Korg though (as I'm used to the work procedures on them). But I'd love to know what Kurzweil have up their sleeve as I'm a big admirer of the PC3.  ;)
I'm moving towards more vintage sounds these days (not so synthy) so I'd like a Clavia Nord Electro 3 (or similar) as I know they sound lovely for organ and vintage keys. Ideally I'd like to get hold of a Nord Electro 2 Rack.. cheaper and just play it through my current keyboards.
Still so many choices.... Will it ever end!!!!!! :roll:
If I had the money I'd spend a fortune on keys galore.......

ooops,
went to the National Drum Fair yesterday and ended up with a nice 10"x5.5" Mapex snare. My 'EIMA' tomless kit is nearing completion!!!!!!

Not far off - I think mine is the pre-MPX range so pretty much identical, only paid £35 s/h for it, which is really what prompted the purchase!!!
Needs reheading as it still has the original 'UX' by remo heads, so a nice hazy Ambassador (you spoil us  ;) ) reso although not yet decided on a batter!!!!

I would like a 13" 3.5" snare (brass ofcourse). I will keep on dreaming.

Before I can be allowed any more gear this year, we have to find the money to master and replicate the CD...

Last night, I ordered Windows 7 (finally!) and a new hard drive for my laptop. I'm just about to order an MBox 2 Mini that comes with Pro Tools 8 LE. Only took me three years to work up the balls to buy it!  :lol:

Hopefully, I will be kicking sonic arse sometime next week.  :D

None of which I could ever afford.
