A Miku Stomp if Korg has any with them? And if they don't, ask them what the deal is with that shit. But like, nicely. Otherwise, see if you can find a pick made out of a stupid material. Don't they always have those at NAMM? I don't use picks.

Oh! I will! I slap them in their silly faces! :)

UGH! I wish Lastgasp was going to be there. LOL



I know you have to wait until the last day to buy stuff. I actually extended my trip last night by a day so I wouldn't miss it. LOL. I doubt I'll get that great of deals, but it's the thrill of the hunt. I'll be spooging my pants the whole time I'm there I'm sure.

Probably get better recommendations after the show hits. Who knows what anyone will announce at the show? Otherwise I'd look for any small or limited runs. Maybe if EQD had a Zap Machine [always intrigued by that one] or if Big City goes and has anything rare-ish in their booth.

As always, be discrete.

I'm planning on being a slut a NAMM. Going to whore myself out to all the booth operators. :)


No really I'll probably be the quietest guy in the building. Hahaha. Works fine too because I'm hanging with Douglas and he said he's quite the recluse. hahaha

Plus there's going to be parties and shit and I don't drink. :)

I was more looking at what company should I try and sweet talk out of something. :) Source Audio already told me they are not sure they will have anything for sale new, but that doesn't mean I can't hug them and try and get something.

I'd really like someone like Strymon to put out a really transparent OD/Distortion with a clean blend that sounds good on bass and guitar.

For the price it would cost you may as well just buy two dedicated pedals and call it a day. Maybe a SansAmp of some sort for the bass, and whatevs you want for guitar. Speaking of, I also love my original SansAmp as a boost for guitar, and can tell you it sounds big gnar as a bass preamp through a quad of 6550's.

Truthfully I never really felt the need for a blend on any of my drive/fuzz pedals. Find one that makes the tone(s) I want, and Imma good2go.

I predict the new Fane alnico speakers are gonna be wallet rapers. $289.99+. I also wish they had stuck with the more classic looking aesthetic for the A90, but I'm really looking forwards to clips of them, the A60 (looks so sexy too all in creamy white), and the F70 (ferrite, hoping it's like the old Fanes in Gilmour's and Townshend's cabs).

I also predict bending over and tofft eventually. :lol:

It'd probably be like $350ish, and there are plenty of super high end dirt pedals in that price range. Not saying I'd buy it, just saying it would be cool.

Cool. I still stand by my SansAmp recommendation though. They can cover a lot of ground and sound good.

Well in that case, I'd be looking at folks who just seem like incredibly cool folks, as well as those who may be weighing costs to ship back and forth?
- Zvex
- EQD
- Catalinbread
- Empress
- Mr Black
Also, feel like I saw a magazine was going to host a bunch of smaller builders? Can't find anything about that, though...

Not sure you could sweet talk, but I'd definitely stop by these guitar makers. Maybe a handy is all they'll need after a few days of tradeshow hell:
Rhoney and Kauer's booth
Duesenberg Guitars
Nebelung Guitars seem SUPER cool and you are not going to find them outside of Norway.
Soultool [terrible name, interesting idea]
Ozztosh Aluminum CNC milled aluminum guitars, priced to make EGC look reasonable.
Custom 77 guitars. Seems like they are doing a reverend move. Built in Korea, set up in France. Their original designs are somewhat intriguing for budget guitars.
11Guitars seem interesting.
Maybe ESP? I think they kinda go batshit crazy on weird themed things every year.

Oh I know several small builders that will be there! I'll be running around trying to meet people face to face for the first time! :)

I'll check all those out for sure!

Nebelung sounds fucking awesome! The Satora seems awesome and it's only 720 new??? Crazy!

Man, I don't play guitar but some of those will give me boners.

I'm still trying to talk myself out of trying to hug on Michael Tobias at the MTD Booth (I assume he'll be there?).

It's going to be really hard not to want everything there. That's the point of the show though right???

Also, Zvex would be killer. I bet they'll have something really unique for NAMM.
