An old Hiwatt( I almost bought one, but am glad I didn't trade in my JCM 800 to do so), or an old Orange; one day I may have both...I would love a Ricky even though I'm building one with Alembic guts, and maybe replace the '81 BC Rich Eagle I sold to buy my Distillate ( I sorta regret that, but it was worth it)...In guitars I think a Gibson Firebird may top the list(I'd take a Thunderbird too) and a good Gretsch...Tony

I know someone that has an old Hiwatt ! I don't think that it has been fired up in a while .

I'm not playing guitar much lately(mostly bass) so it'd have to be real cheap to justify it...

OK, I changed my mind. I'd like one of these.

I wish there were no dishonest folk around. Had my gig bags stolen last week and I've worked out I've lost over a grand (uk pounds) in gear.

Ouch Jacko that's disgusting, what were the circumstances of the theft, was it at a gig? if you don't mind sharing. Anything we can keep our eyes open on-line for?

Partially my own fault V. I left my bags in the boot after a gig a week ago and left them there as we're selling our house and Mrs J figured the house looks tidier when my stuff is out of sight.
The full list is too much to post but it includes my warwick pedalboard with Mesa footswitch, EBS chorus and Ashdown hyperdrive pedals,. Shure SM58 mic, Zoom H2 recorder, Line6 wireless transmitter etc. There's also a spare amp head (ashdown little giant,a lot of cables and a couple of stands.
Had to borrow a guitar lead for a gig we played this weekend. The insurance won't cover the full amount but I should be able to replace most of the important bits.

Well, it's good that the insurance will help. But when one of our fellow human beings does something like this to us, it hurts. To offset the harm that some do for their own selfish interests, others work to make the world a better place for all. And Graeme, your contributions to our community here have certainly made our world better.

Thanks Dave. I'm looking at this as an opportunity to try out new pedals. Probably the EBS billy Sheehan drive and either the tech21 bass Chorus or the Aguilar Chorusaurus :-)

Graeme , I am sorry to read of your theft story. Most certainly I hope that you get suitable replacements along with some extra perks from the Universe in return, You most certainly are entitled now as a result of such a turn of events.
