cavsrock08 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I was curious about everyones last guitar purchase. What was it? I am also curious about how much time in between that guitar and the previous one. For example I started playing in 2006. I had some crappy strat copy and that was that. In 2009 with some help I bought a Schecter Omen 6. Now I am getting itchy for a new one. Cant afford it right now but maybe some serious saving and a little grad present to myself and I might pick something up. How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem00n Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 My last purchase would have to be the 59' ES 125T and before that was a Washburn neck/ESP body put together, gotta love yard sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChanMan Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Fender American Mahogany Special Strat about 18 months after my Gibson Les Paul Standard. I've been clean ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbreslauer Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 i'm almost embarrassed to admit this. i bought my Robot LP Junior in Early November. it was followed by my R9 just before Christmas... in my defense, both these guitars replaced guitars, with the Jr. replacing my Zoot SG, and the R9 replacing my Dark Fire. there has been a flurry of guitars over the last 4 years or so (basically since i moved to IL). Prior to moving here in 2006, my previous purchase was 6 years earlier, and the one before that was 12 years earlier than that (when i was last gigging regularly and actually getting paid money to do this.) so this "turnover" for me is a recent phenomenon. with the R9, i have reached sonic bliss: aside from maybe an acoustic, i think i am done for a while. maybe.

Shnate McDuanus Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 My last purchase was my SG Special Faded--that was back in December of 2008. That was actually my first guitar purchase ever, as before then I had learned on my mom's old Guild classical and my dad's old cheapo steel-string acoustic with beastly action and dull, muffled tone. Next up will be a Carvin CT6 or a plain ol' Fender Standard Strat. I'll have to see where my budget lies and what my options are, but I'm really gunning for the Carvin--if I can find a used one that's at a good price (which I'm certain I can.) If not, I'll go for the Strat--I need one anyway. There will be a new amp in my future--I'm looking at a Carvin X100B or a used Marshall JCM 800. Either one will get me a good tone which is usable for what I've been focusing most of my attention on lately--Motorhead and Accept covers. But I digress.

The RandyMan Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 An Epi Dot and and Epi Thunderbird bass about three months ago (both at the same time). Prior purchase was my SG Standard in 2006--had to make up for lost time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deacon Blue Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 My last purchas was in December, a Les Paul Classic Antique. Six years before that was a Godin A6 and a Godin LG. Before that was a 1973 stratocaster. It all started with a Gibson es330 in 1966, this was my first real guitar. I think there was few others that came and went but I can't quite remember.

I've got his smoke stacks in my V, they took 8 weeks to arrive but were well worth the wait, they cost the same price as Duncans and you can have him wind them anyway you want, (I ordered mine 0.5k hotter with a Peter Green mod) but I didn't want anything special with the Lizards.

EVOL! Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 In 2007 I bought my Taylor 110. About two and a half, maybe three years prior I bought my SG Special Ltd. I fall in love with different guitars all of the time, but my funds are tied up in my house and trying to make early retirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retrosurfer1959 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I had not purchased a guitar since November 22nd 2009 so I did not buy any guitars in 2010 which was intentional after a bet with my wife. I have fallen off the wagon already in 2011 and have one on order but I deserved a treat after making it a full year. Prior to this self imposed hiatus i don't think Ive missed a year without buying some kind of guitar since 1981. I typically average 3-4 guitars a year and I usually sell 1-2 so the herd grows pretty slowly but steadily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MojoRedFoot Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Holy crap...uh last week I bought a HSC for Kenny (Ken Lawrence Explorer replica), the week before that was paying a luthier to do the finish on Kenny, a few days before that I bought Vanessa of cl (Gibson flying V copy). before that I don't know. Guess it was some cables, stand, and a pedal tuner. I have bought so much sh!t last year.....spent well close to $4000 in new and used gear and projects. Yikes.
