Will bring along my re-acquired Gretsch 6117 for twangnsnarl...I figure it's got his sort of vibe going on.

SG Special, maybe a fat neck Jnr, Firebird of some form.

Will bring Swart STR, the Morgan of doom, RedPlate, /13 and various cabs n stuff. If I have room Ill chuck in the JMI as it's had some tweaks and sounding GOOD.
Aw, thanks Grant. I like you too. :mental: Quite keen to have a noodle with a Firebird as well actually.

Might see if my housemate wants to come along. He has an SG and an AC30 Handwired with Greenbacks. It's a haven of Vox round our place.

Lecturers want me to write things for them instead, so I have a strong feeling I'll be doing that instead. :yawn:

That may be a contributing factor to my predicted absence.

So. Looks like my first gear fest, well, with gear anyway, will be a Tronfest! My first was Christchurch, where I just kind of turned up and, like most of the other guys, stood around with arms crossed and nodded and mumbled about tone haha :)

Looks like it'll be a RyAMP shootout. Will bring the AC15HW too (blue).

A few delays and reverbs and the like, too. Strymons will be in attendance. And a TRex. Funny thing is, today I was thinking I wish I still had the Timeline... I have such complete confidence in their analog dry through, tone wise...

Anyway. Bring it on!
Larrivee 00 Acoustic. FAV Strat for electric. Ibanez SDGR5 for bass. Push for Ableton. When not doing that, 3D CAD for tunnels...

^ If you want to leave the Vox at home to leave more room for other gear, I'll have my AC15HW there ('tis the only amp I've got, after all). And probably my housemate's AC30.

Interested to hear the Ryan built job though.

Fair call. Though, is yours greenbacks or blue?
