OK, here's Ned's guide to spend Bob's money:

6G15 Fender Reverb - let's say $600 used

Voodoo Lab Amp Selector - nothing more fun than running FOUR of Bob's amps on at the same time...
http://voodoolab.com/ampselector.htm - $230

NOS RCA 6V6GTY, Military spec, matched Pair, $165
https://www.kcanostubes.com/content/nos-rca-6v6gty-black-plates-matched-pair

$5 left.

Speaking of spending money, here's a shop near me I'm afraid to ever get close to -- some of their stuff looks like they raided the corporate PR photographs from the archives...

I bought a 5080 6 months ago Tom. I also have a 3080. do you have any expansion modules?

My 5080 apparently has the JV-80-08 Keys of the '60s & '70's, JV-80-1 Pop, and JV-80-15 SFX.  I think I have a Techno board laying around here, maybe in my XP-80. I know that's your kind of thing.

My 5080 also has 128MB of RAM in it.

[Bob Leonard]

I have 3 of those modules already Tom.

Ned,
No to the reverb, maybe to the switch, no to the tubes, and kill me to the guitar shop.

I did find a 66 dual Showman with cabinet for 1K locally. Hmmmmmm....

My money is on Blackberry, spent it this morning.

Wait till the x32 Rack comes out and put the money together with what I could get selling my bands analog board and buy the x32. I imagine I could mix pretty good with my iPad + my laptop. Later I'd get the biggest touch screen desktop I could find and mix with that.

Or.... I could get a larger, nicer analog board(used) , some more rack gear(4chs of gates, another effects processor, and several channels of geq), and a bigger snake.

For ease of setup option 1 for ease and enjoyment of mixing option 2. ;-)

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?

I'm not a "prepper" or anything, but if I were a guitar player, I might spend it on car/truck parts before the apocalypse hits, especially if my vehicle had over 100,000 miles.  Now's a better time than ever to preemptively/indiscriminately replace parts before they "get" you later on:  engine filter, mass air flow sensor, PCV valve, oxygen sensors (both upstream and downstream), EGR valve, spark plugs & wiring, coil pack, speed sensors (input and output), solenoid pack, transmission rebuild kit, tensioner, serpentine belt, fuel pump, etc, etc.

Snare drums...  But thats just me.

I like the vintage guitar idea!

2013 Explorer with 8K miles and toasty heated leather seats. Good idea though.

I just browsed some at ebay and for that money you could buy:
Accordian
Banjo
Bagpipes and a
Glockenspiel. 
Silly me, I didn't even know that a glockenspiel was a musical instrument, I thought it was the term for people bragging about their handguns.
