    I want an old Ibanez Jem 777 so badly (always have). Particularly the green and yellow ones. Unfortunately they are quite rare, and expensive if they're in good shape, and I don't feel like spending any money at all right now. Probably could've bought a yellow one for ~$1500 a few weeks ago, which was pretty cheap. It was pretty tough to resist the urge..

    Also would've loved to own one of the old JPM models, particularly the left- and rightmost models.

    I don't think I've ever seen guitars that ugly before in my life.

    Tough call to make, considering they're the guitar equivalent of a 14 year old girl that just figured out that it's possible to paint your fingernails alternate colours.

    I'm stunningly handsome and you're mad that I won't allow someone with such atrocious taste in guitars to fuck me.

    black and white one might be cool if it had a different shape and was beat up and played by a punk band and i didnt know the other four existed.

    I want an accordion and a ukulele. Might've mentioned that already in this thread, and no specific ones in mind since dunno anything about accordions or ukuleles but I wants them.

    This is what I want. I love my current kit, a Mapex Orion in Imperial Burst. I've posted it here before. But I want some variety. Having a top of the line maple kit and a top of the line birch/walnut kit would be ideal. And they'd both have burl finishes, which is great for me. I'm such a sucker for natural wood grains. Here's what I have right now:

    Awful picture, but you get the idea.

    I think it would be really fun to just goof around with, but at the same time open up a lot of musical creativity.

    No doubt, but guitarists are such fucking faggots that they can't get over the fact that it's a MIDI controller that looks like a guitar.

    inorite?

    Only thing is I've played em with a Tazzy blackwood back/sides and I like the sound of Walnut better. Walnut doesn't look as good as that, but it's still prdy cool looking. I'm going prolly for the custom series too, and I already asked if it's possible to have a guitar that looks kinda like that, they said most probably. Fuckin cool. I love Lowdens

    Also I want this. I have my doubts about just how good it really is, but just the fact that it exists is enough to get my interest:



    Fuck I just realised, one of my bands' guitarists works for Roland/Boss so I can probably get this mad cheap.

    Predator vision... sweet! I feel like that image is a good representation of how you want to actually hear the music. However I think it is better to rely on your ears and a good monitor setup than a graphical representation. Also it seems like some stuff is counterintuitive... want to add reverb to the vocals? Find them on the doppler radar! Uh... no. Could be tiring after a few hours as well. Where I think this would be awesome is for really soundscapey stuff where you need a lot of precision in how you deal with the stereo image. I also think it would be sweet to just have a 3d plot and just specify... I want _this_ to go _here_ and be _so_ big and it assigns EQ, panning and reverb/delay parameters that correspond to that.

    Yeah, I'm not really that interested in it as a stereo imaging/effects adding tool, as cool as that is. I mostly like the fact that you can isolate certain instruments within the mix and control their level or extract them completely. Could be great for learning parts that are otherwise difficult to pick out, or creating samples for various purposes.

    what are you even on about
