Members midinut Posted December 26, 2012 Members Share Posted December 26, 2012 I noticed that the December 2012 New Gear thread fell off to page 3 so I thought I'd throw this out there for S&G.The best girlfriend EVAR got me these (bless her heart):Yes, I think I will go do something extra special for her ... what a keeper!!

Members ElectricPuppy Posted December 26, 2012 Members Share Posted December 26, 2012 I got a rock.No, seriously. My brother made me a stacked stone zen garden art piece. It's actually pretty cool! I didn't get any kind of music toy. At all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bernard Posted December 26, 2012 Members Share Posted December 26, 2012 Carlos the webmaster for importmusic.com.ar gave me a wonderful present, although I am sure we can also thank Miguel Lops KORG product specialist who may also have played a part. I just hope they do not loose their jobs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NoRomoFan Posted December 26, 2012 Members Share Posted December 26, 2012 Jacket, a wallet, and some socks which I'm thankful for. 0's toll on the economy and increased regulatory expenses took much of our Christmas fund this year but we've had so many great past ones it's all good...EDIT: after reading some of your posts I see a lot of us were in the same boat this year. Don't feel so bad anymore.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members KJI Posted December 27, 2012 Members Share Posted December 27, 2012 Nothing synth related this year, just some stuff for my bass: a nice padded leather strap from Long Hollow (not the magical strap I thought I was getting that makes my bass weightless, but a definite improvement from the Fender pack-in I'd been using), and a used BBE Sonic Stomp pedal (which I may be returning, because the seller didn't say it was missing the battery cover and had scratchy pots Hopefully Amazon will help out with the process).Nothing spectacular, and as long as the problem with the pedal gets sorted without hassle, I'll be alright.

Members Gribs Posted December 27, 2012 Members Share Posted December 27, 2012 I also bought Aalto at the sale price. I am going to pick up one other sub-hundred dollar plugin for Christmas - maybe Permut8. There is not a single computer game that I want right now so my expenditure during Steam's holiday sale is nil. Otherwise I got a really big Christmas surprise. Our furnace fan motor burned out yesterday (Christmas day)! We heated the house using our gas fireplace until our HVAC guy out here early this AM. Ka-chink! Don't you just love those unexpected household maintenance requirements? I was surprised how well the fireplace did really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mooginator Posted December 27, 2012 Members Share Posted December 27, 2012 Okay, let me say at the onset this a whiney response. What did I get for Xmas? Aside from some home-baked goods from relatives and a really nice scarf, I got a: can of chili, a jar of lame peanut butter, and some pecan-favored maple syrup ( to eat on pancakes I never make) Who did I get those gifts from? My millionaire dad. A year ago he set into motion financial activities that directly led to the deletion of my career, studio, way of life,residence, and ability to take care of my child. Seriously. I lost everything and am penniless, having to move in with my GF ( who has advanced MS). She pays for my food, medications, internet. My dad was on MY phone plan ( which I paid for) but when he put me in poverty, the phone went bye-bye. Of course he bought a new phone and got his own plan, he'll spend money on that. He will also spend money on maintaining a 5k sq.foot home where he lives alone, putting a new roof on his gazebo, buying professional grade lawn equipment, spending 13K on tree-removal, flying on a whim to VA for a party, etc, while sitting on stocks, mutuals, bonds, IRA, CDs, annuities, insurance policies, and 3 properties. I (nor he) have not seen my son in nearly a year because I have no car and cannot afford to travel to him or have him see me. Apparently he doesn't want to see my kid, his grandson. The culmination of my 30-year career now resides in the back of kid's pizza shop, my studio, bought at an auction for 10K. This kid has ZERO knowledge of what this gear does, yet alone how to hook it up and make music with it. I was kept totally in the dark about the auction's existence.

Members Gribs Posted December 27, 2012 Members Share Posted December 27, 2012 Ouch! Nobody really gives me anything, except a tin of home made cookies that my mom and dad make and send for my family. They are elderly and my mom has a hard time moving around, so the work they put into this is extraordinary and I appreciate that more than anything they could buy. You know, it is a little piece of my childhood. I prefer to give stuff away anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
