Dilemma!

Okay,
so i just sold an old bass and an old guitar and have a good 200$ to spend at my leisure.

here's my options:

FIX MY AMPS:
Need 2 caps & a a set of 7027a's for my Ampeg B-18
Fix my fender showman AGAIN, somethings fucked up with ONE tubes circuit.

Pedalbuilding!
Buy enclosures and start building clones to get my feet wet!
This is all i want to spend the summer doing, so this looks like a good possibility.

but do i get the 1590B size or 1590BB!
i wanna make ABY pedals, but i also wanna make some smaller clones.. i could get both....

PEDALS!
HT has me drooling all over his custom AB-Synth (make a video, jerk) and i think i might need to get one REAL soon.

I need a tremolo pedal, but the one's i'm leaning towards are Vex's. Suggest.

I dream of Destructo Nocatvia's everynight while i sleep.

don't even get me started :facepalm:

FINALLY!
Responsibilities!
i owe about 200$ total.. but it can be paid over time... :facepalm:

OH AND!
FENDER JAGUAR
I almost bought a jaguar a month ago but the dude took some one elses craigslist offer... he emailed me today and said he still has it, that dude flaked, do i want? if i sell my showman after it's fixed the Jaguar is mine.



WHAT DO I DO!




HELP ME!

Fix the B-18 then fix the Showman (has tremolo, problem fixed no need for a pedal)

Listen to the truth..
The cheapest crappy worst made guitar in the world (like Danos) can sound great through a great amp. The worlds best guitar will sound like shit through a bad amp.
(insert quip about bass demos here)

The B-18 and Showman are great amps. one they are fixed they will last another 40 years before the need maintenance again.

The Jag was born for and is the child of the Showman, they are the soul mates etc of the Fender world. They need each other. Having a Jag without the Showman is too tragic to comprehend like some O'Henry story.

Fuzz lust will never end You'll be drooling over some hot young fuzz when you're 90.
Think of waiting and saving as fore play.

You already have a Jag so fix the amps , lust for fuzz and love the one you're with.

So

Pay off $100 of debt and use the other $100 to make 2 or 3 pedals, if you PM me I can give you a hand with anything you need.

"but do i get the 1590B size or 1590BB!"
Depends what you are building, why don't you build a tremolo, 2 birds with one stone (don't get a Vex, build an 4ms Tremulus lune)
