The 4th Annual "What did you buy this year" thread


Phantasm

I'm pretty sure this is my 4th annual, because I posted this first in 2005 when I went nuts buying gear to try killing the pain of working on my house after Katrina.

 

This year I bought:

 

Sadowsky Metro PJ4: This thing has become my #1 bass for my cover band. It managed somehow to unseat my Lakland 4-94... for now.

 

GK MB2-500: 500W, 3lbs, fits in the side of the lightweight Sadowsky case. And in two moves, I cut about 60lbs. off of what I carry every night.

 

 

So this year was a slow year for me. I've actually got TONS of basses to sell! How about you guys?

Big year of change for me. Bought the Shuttle 6.0, lost the phil jones bass cabs, replaced with Genz Benz NEO212XT's. Switched over to five string, bought a Tobias Toby 5pro, Ibby 535, Epiphone erb 5'er, and a Kingston Z-4. Bought and sold a Schecter Stilletto studio elite, a Richland 5 string, and a BC Rich Heritage hummingbird neckthru.

I did not buy a single piece of music gear in 2009.

 

I did sell two guitars, about 10 pedals, and a {censored} load of various PA stuff. The proceeds are in a ING direct saving account waiting for...something.

 

Nothing on the horizon I have my eye on.

I'm not sure I did either. I'd take more recording/PA gear, but I'm pretty stocked otherwise.

Bought and sold several basses, guitars, and amps.

 

I'm a "flip till I find the perfect one" kind of guy.

 

Perfect things from this year which will never leave:

 

The Fender 70's retro-clone Precision with Lindy Fralin pickup (I built it)

The MMP MusicMan/Precision hybrid, now tuned B-E-A-D with some DR Lo-Riders (I built it)

I also have a 1969 Sunn 200S with matching 215 cab, but I just got the head running and I need to refurb the cab... it will get it's own thread and will be added to the 2010 list.
