Nobody had bid on that at all for Ten Days!
I bid with two hours left to go...

It don't have a brown case... But I've got one.

Have you seen Roger\'s new loop video ? It's pretty cool.

Loops are very fun toys. The IDEA preamp would probably fit in a stocking.

I think I'm gonna get me the acoustical treatments I've been wanting for my music room. Bass traps for the corners and some high frequency absorbers for the reflextion spots, and diffusors for the rear wall. I was fortunate to get alot of OT at work as we get pretty busy at years end. It's going to run around 2 g's.

bass traps

diffusors

Well since I have to wait on the tank of gas I picked up a few little items to hold me over. There's a new acoustic I've been playing ever since I got it and the Hamer Jazzadega from Al. Now that guitar is real pretty and I may be able to get used to the skinny neck again! I may put a Fishman power bridge on it to add a little acousticness to the tone.
And I got one of the Tak direct boxes that has a boost button, most useful for the LadyFish, and the little Olympus digital recorder that came with africkin 60 page manual on how to work it. That's only the english version. I hate that!!
We got each other the previously mentioned sleigh ride and then I'm getting that tank of gas. I may ever spring for 93 octane, treat the Rock, the heartbeat of America, to a little Christmas spirit as well.

Got some sound reinforcement.... Ion Block Rocker.
Battery powered, 22 Watts, 7"speaker + Tweeter, with luggage wheels. Mic/Guitar in, Guitar in, IPOD dock, RCA in..... not a Peavy Stack but just a little extra help should I give up my straight job and go street musician.

Which closely resembles the Alesis Transactive Mobile http://www.alesis.com/transactivemobile

AAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's good to be south of the line again, and the one tank will get to just over the M/D line.

Oh, and did I mention another D42 Collings?

A beat-up 1113 is arriving for whatever refurbishment I can prestidigitate. "Made in West Germany", per FleaBay offering. Really now, another member of The Great Unwashed, evidently.

Hey Beal ... I want your Santa to come to my house. You got some real nice new toys. And high octane and a roadtrip to sunnier climes are a match made in heaven.

That'd be the markings from the Schallers. ;) Back from the time when there was a wall to keep the Western types from moving into the utopia that was the Democratic Republic of Germany. I think the wall got torn down during a Roger Waters concert. :cool:
