I've gathered we have some horsetrader-types around here.

Anyone want to trade for a near-new Boss DR-5 Dr. Rythm section, complete with extra aftermarket manuals and power supply? Works like a four track recorder, you can program your drums, keyboards, bass, and one other instrument.

The unit was $750Cdn new. I've only ever programmed one song on it. Just not my thing, I'd rather play with musicians than machines.

My wish list includes an Ovation 12 string, Viper, Breadwinner/Preacher... but I'm open to offers.

Anyone coming to the NW-OFC gathering, we could examine each others stuff and finalize there...

I'll give you two OFC picks (white) and a "Don't Just Do It - Do It Right!" sticker some guy up north keeps sending me...

I hope we're not going to attract the wrong kind of crowd. You don't know the neighborhood Greg lives in...

Let's see....I have a blue tooth GPS (wireless) that I owned for about a year and want to unload. Works fantastic, but I couldn't read the PDA I was using it with in the airplane, so bought a dedicated GPS unit.

I also might trade off two 1980's vintage directional mics I bought for recording. Almost never used and work great. One is a Shure the other an Electro-Voice.

I will have to think about that a bit. Wouldn't mind one of the Boss units, but I do have a stomp box with some drums, plus my Roland XP-50 that I can sequence drums. Just what I need...one more piece of technology to learn....yikes.

P.S. Does the DR-5 allow the use of individual drum triggers from an electronic kit? (i.e. multiple inputs for each trigger)

Now, that is hillarious. Of course Waskel used to live in the neighborhood so he knows. In 97214, the only flags more prevalent than the rainbow flags are Tibetan Prayer flags -- i kid you not!

I suppose then that a rousing chorus of Onward Christian Soldiers might be met with a ACLU lawsuit before we got out of there huh?

After looking a little bit harder at the 2080, I am thinking about commissioning an airbrush mural for the top. With all that textured, uninterupted gray real estate, a person could get really creative. Suppose I should think about whether I am keeping it or not first, huh.

Oh...I MAY (emphasis) part with my W597 while there unless I decide to part with the 2080,,,,,

On the funny side, however, as I mentioned in another post, I just bought my wife a new car. Today on the phone, I was talking about the Sunday service and she asked what I was going to do with the 2080 (she likes it over the 597, I am mixed). I said the jury was still out and I just haven't decided yet. She says " I guess maybe I understand now why guys have more than one guitar".

I am not sure if that meant our indecision, or due to the uniqueness of each instrument, but I will assume the latter for the time being.

Hey....the other thread reminded me that I have a Washburn Bass for sale too. Couple hundred buys it and it is mint. Pearl White. Active electronics, rounded body corners in a traditional strat type body.

I may have to leave something else if there is any interest in it, so let me know early as I have to leave on Thursday and will be in PDX on working on Friday.

Woody, an Ovation 12 string would make my world much more complete! I'm not too too picky, but a case would be nice too...

I feel a little handicapped around here, not knowing the guitars by their model # and nicknames... :rolleyes: For 20 years I didn't even know I owned a Thunderhead, I jsut called it 'that Ovation semi-accoustic.'

More info on the Dr-5 Dr. Rythm

So I guess the 2 picks and the sticker won't cut it. How's about I throw in the (to quote Kim Keller) "crappy cardboard case" my 1624 came in? :cool: How can you refuse?

OK, this is a bit more simplistic. I just received a very nice TKL Premiere electric guitar case which, unfortunately doesn't quite fit the Celebrity GTX-23 I also have. Kinda like a strat gitter, and an LP garage. It does say Ovation on the case, so I'm thinkin' it may be for a Preacher, or something shaped like a Les Paul. It's 10 1/2" in the top bout, and 14" in the bottom bout. 41" end-to-end, inside. 2 1/2" deep, and 1" in the top. 21 1/2" from bottom to neck block.
So, if anybody's needin' a case like this, I'll pack it down to the festivities.
Post here, or slip me a PM.
Cheers,
Chris
And, fillhixx, I JUST got my '76 Pacemaker & case. Actually, my second one. Sold SixOhSix, my rebuilt 1115-1, to one of the OFC brethren last year, and kicked myself for doin' it!!

Anyone want my Applause 12 string for $125? I'll find room for it in the Honda if you'd like. My wife will be happy that I sell a guitar until she finds out I'll replace it with another one.

Mark,

You have too many guitars to hold down a real full time job. Better just hold a raffle while at the OFC NW gathering.

What say you everyone....$1 a ticket for Marks 1537

What makes you think Waskel is bringing it to the gathering, much less would give it to anyone who won the raffle other than himself? The Applause needs to go cheap so that I can make room for the Balladeer 12 string. My connection at the local GC is leaving to go to work for Taylor in San Diego and is willing to make me a deal on whatever I want, but he leaves on Monday and the Balladeer is the only thing they have that I'm somewhat interested in.

Don't know about many transactions at the gathering, but there sure were some priceless instruments in circulation.
I think the overstimulation of the collection pretty much flooded me into basic befuddlement & confusion.
As the comraderie grows, I surmise more long-term loans may occur. So, Wabbit, still have the 1537? Swy Waskel!

See's sold me a case and I seem to have garnished a sale from the references taken at the gathering. This Networking thing can be pretty cool.

At the OFC NW I almost drank one beer, played maybe 4 songs all the way through and had some excellent conversations with a bunch of great people!

I am considering being a host for another one!

No, I seem to have lost it. I arrived with 4, left with 3. I'm sure whoever swiped it will appreciate it as much as I did.

I was so concerned about getting the 1537 back from Waskel, I loaded it and 2 others into the Pilot and was about to leave when my daughter reminded me I was supposed to take back another. Almost left the Ute there.
Next year someone who sells guitar stands needs to bring a bunch. That was the only thing I noticed in short supply.
Greg had a great idea of supplying markers and masking tape to identify our cases. Really thought of most everything. My wife kept asking about what food to bring and I told her we had a couple pages on that topic, but we ended up talking about guitars and beer. This is really my kind of group.
