An amp?

That's the funniest thing I've seen all day. I'm cracking up over here.
On second look there's one hiding with a cover over it, but yeah.
There's at least 3 amps in that picture, isn't there?
All pain and troubles melted away like lemon drops beyond the contrails across the sky.

A counter & a few Guitar Center employees ignoring everyone.

Come on guys, on the left wall there is a cab with a head and a wedge above it, and in the back corner there are 2 combos behind that cardboard box!


I was gonna say a Strat, but one of them looks a bit Stratty, and my guess is that it is probably as close as you want to get to one (that is me making assumptions based on my impression that a number of people on here cannot stand them)

I would be missing a Les Paul but you're obviously not into Gibsons. So an Electric XII or a Venus XII? Coronado or Starcaster?

Backstory: I moved so all my shits in a box right now. Got my drums unpacked too. 1968 ludwig blue oyster pearl that my dad left me.

Amp rig Acoustic GT50H tube head, Harley Benton 2x12 with V30s. And a 10" Kustom monitor on top because I'm fuckin deaf now and it's ALL MIDS ALL DAY right in my face. I got a Fender Excelsior, and an old performer1000combo+1x12 for when friends come over.

Many would consider my amp rig being very Squier itself. Budget stuff with quality shit where it counts and it sounds decent.

Needs a contrabassoon.

Nice setup!
This is an excellent rectangle

As above but also get a Mustang-shaped kazoo to go with it.

Have played one in real life. The way the neck is so much higher up than the thin body makes the gap between the strings and the body COMPLETELY DANGEROUS for the way I slam my hand around while I play. There's like 2 inches if clearance. I'd lose a finger

I totally understand that. I played Telecasters almost exclusively from the beginning, and when I got an archtop style guitar, it took me a long time to adjust.
I bloodied myself more than once, before getting used to it.

Wishlist.

That white Squier VM special telecaster that had the j mascus neck and the JM pickups. They made a butterscotch version too but f that noise.

Powercaster

Lead II in that shitty green color just because I want to see what it will look like with a white pickguard instead of black. Black pickguards have thier place but not by ruining better color combinations.

The Jarman just doesn't seem like reality at this point

i think that tele had a VM neck, makes more sense considering its made in the VM factory, and has the vmjm pickup.

jarman would be sick i agree. i do think you need something like a mustang bass or bass vi and a bass amp more than another guitar tho

Maybe a Squier Vista Musicmaster? Some other amps and cabs for variety?
