I'm pretty well set on gear. I may pick up a Superego and I'd like to get a Lofi Looop Junky again.

My main goal is to start writing more and actually get out and play some shows. I'm sick of just playing in my living room and irritating the pets.

Get more ninja at changing settings on the bitquest.
Try and utilise effects more, but also without making them stick out like a sore thumb.
Shred more.
More palm mutes.

Find a nice chainsaw tone that isn't just a knock off of old dismember. Finally get around to writing and recording my one man grind-death project. That currently only exists in my head.

Get a real power supply to supply said OCD with 18V

Get a Dan Armstrong again

Overhaul my VT-22
Oh ya. I was into Ampegs for awhile and recapped/serviced a few V4s and VT-22. Get some good F&T filter caps in there and replace the coupling caps, those tend to go bad.

Yeah this is like my fourth or fifth V-4. Its already been recapped. It has other issues that more timid techs just aren't willing to tackle.

More Recording stuff...
Better mic preamp(s), outboard Compressor(s), 500er Series stuff maybe...
And perhaps a ferrofish and a summing mixer. Not sure if i will go that Route though.

Guitar, Bass, amps and pedals is more than fine. Probably i will sell 1 or 2 2x12 cabs. For my recording purpose that Takes too much Space...

One thing that might Happen is a big Bass cab by tecamp for my analog pattern robots rig...

Me:
Write and record more music.
And practice way more! Actually playing more guitar, not just writing/reading on the interwebz about playing the guitar.

Guitars:
Pay the final downpayment of my new EGC Baritone and actually getting the guitar.
Buying a new Hagstrom Viking Baritone(my old one got stolen in May) as a backup for the EGC.
Maybe picking up a Bass VI.

Amps:
pick up an old solid state head(Peavey, H|H, Traynor, etc) as a backup for my Traynor YBA-1.
Maybe getting a 115 cab as well.

Pedals:
-getting a new pedalboard and power supply.
-EHX 22500 looper
-some kind of line selector or small mixer for when I want more than just guitar to go through the board(pedalsteel, contact mics, oscillators, tape loops, etc).

Other:
-some kind of oscillator/dronebox. Been messing a lot with the "carrier out" on my Moog MF-102, and want moooore!
-analog synth. I like the MS-20.
-new MacBook. Mine is from 2007(when they where still white and made of plastic). Still works, but I would never use it live, and I would like to be able to do that.

Keep chipping away slowly at my wishlist (focusing on drive stuff for a while - need to get a Hudson Broadcast and a MASF Thornoscillator) and finally finally finally demo all my new songs for my new band and start a band and stop wanking away solo in my bedroom like a dickhead (get new band). Got enough songs for a couple of solo albums too, but I have kids and most of the spare time I have is used for wanking away solo in my bedroom like a dickhead or playing The Binding of Isaac or crying :(

Roll on the new year!

Get out of the basement and into the venues. Seriously just want to get back to playing some shows this year.
Record the songs once they're all written and completed. Put out the music.

I realize I don't have "so much" gear when compared to many folks but I am sometimes overwhelmed by all the options. It might be a purge and buy some other things I want type of deal. Some pedals might meet their maker, definitely some guitars on the way out, and then picking up another American made Telecaster, perhaps. I don't know.

Kind of want a RedBear MKE120. Fuck though. Don't need it. Don't need more amps. Just want them.
