A $1000 windfall burning a hole in your pocket to spend on yourself.
 
If you're a guitar player would you spend it on guitar stuff, or sound equipment. And what would you buy?

If I was going to use it in an investing/money saving way, a grand would make a nice extra principle payment on the mortgage. If I was in a fun mood, I'd be thinking long weekend somewhere where there's good food, good wine, and an indoor headed pool. Right now I'm thinking long weekend. 8)

I would buy some more vintage microphones!

I'm so old, when I was doing FOH for Tommy Dorsey, to balance out the horn section I would slide their chairs downstage and upstage to mix!

A Gig Rig Pro 8

I love the idea, but the uncovered DIP switches seem out of place for something that will be on the floor on stage, in a bar... very cool though. Steve have you tried it?


I think $1k for a Dual Showman with cab is a no brainer.

The dip switches are how you select what loops are on, but I can see how they could get him.
My favorite feature is the volume control on each loop so you can volume match the loops.
That is a HUGE feature on a loop switcher.

Maybe a Concert Reverb?

I think Bob's Fender affection ends around 1975 or so... this is from the mid-80's or later, and while nice, probably couldn't hold a candle to his Super Reverbs.

This is the correct answer. :)

True. You can usually pick up these Concert Reverbs for about $5-600 in good shape. Now a plain Concert in brown tolex might be nice. The Concert preceeded the Super and is in effect actually a Super Reverb without reverb. You can usually find those for $8-1200. Not really my cup of tea because they don't have reverb.
 
I'm thinking I may hold out for....
A. Gibson SG Special
 
B. Gibson Les Paul Special
 
C. Set the money aside and build my war chest for a nice digital board not named Presonus or Behringer or LS9.
 
D. A very nice work box with plenty of drawers.
 
E. Drink heavily for about a week.
 
PS - I like Steve Hurts idea but I only run 5 pedals, and besides, he sent me a switch if I ever get around to fixing it.
