I'll be there this year. Give me a list of places you want me to check out and I'll take pictures and shit. :) I mean I'm going to do it anyway, but I'd probably never go to a Gibson booth unless someone asked me too.

aw yeah, hit that gibson booth, but yeah only if youv hit everything else. Practically everyone else is going harder than Gibson. Which is sad because Gibson is the only company I know to make my-size guitars.

I don't give a damn about pedal board space. Gonna use two or three bards and have it spill on the floor anyway. May as well have big imposing boxes.

Source Audio... ditches the crazy enclosures on at least one line, and goes for a TC Electronics-style effect editor? http://www.sourceaudio.net/blog/post/wi ... sneak-peek

Damn yes...Is Source Audio finally dropping those dumb encloseres?? A Teenage Engeneering OP-2 would also make it to my GAS list in a heartbeat. And anything by EHX , WITHOUT the godawfull fugly graphics, would look more appealing than what they've been putting out the last couple years.

Ok awesome! Making a list! I'll have 3 days, so plenty of time to shuffle around and check stuff out! :)

Don't think Source Audio is dropping the boxes that I've heard or seen? I don't think they are that bad honestly. They are very pedalboard friendly and compact for what they offer. I did them.

Now do they actually sell things at NAMM? I've never been. I know I'm buying a Darkglass Vintage DLX from Douglas because he giving me a killer deal, plus his preamp. I'm kind of fearful if they sell things though. I could go bankrupt. hahahaha

Definitely hitting Dingwall, MTD and Fodera if they are all there....maybe I shouldn't though. The temptation for a new bass is so great right now.

of course hit that EQD. damn EQD makes me wet now that they're 2 for 2. Pigtronix and ehx are powerbrands to but far more hit or miss than the 100% success of EQD

Boss: More waza craft stuff. And hopefully including an actual analog fuzz pedal that puts all their previous dirt pedals to shame.

Gibson: An ES-335 for the masses, something that sits between their epi dot and their current pricey 335. I'd love to see them come up with another ES-333, preferably without robotics or wifi or USB or whatever. Also, the world is ready again for the RD Bass.
Both the FZ2 and FZ3 are analog. The FZ3 is completely discrete in fact.

Yeah I know, I'm the pride owner of both, those are the ones I was refering to. Something even better than those two is probably asking for a bit much, but at this point almost anything should be better than the FZ-5. I know it's not easy to come up with anything unique anymore, but if devi ever can have 296 different fuzz pedlols, why shouldn't Boss release one gnarly scrambly gated octave fuzz :)

Through various grapevines I've heard that Mike Matthews actively doesn't want to do those reissues. I'm not sure how much of that is legit and how much has been garbled or whatever, but it would make sense considering that it hasn't happened yet. I'm dying to see where they're going to go with the B9/C9/Pitchfork technology though.

Jet Phaser. That is all. If we dream hard enough maybe it will happen.

RD Bass :drool: I'd buy an RD Artist bass with the weird electronics in a heartbeat.
