Taking advantage of the last day of the RS boxing day sale, got some more of the new d'addario strap locks coming and a set of EB 9 string strings for an amusing project in the new year! No spoilers.

In expecting to get a couple of new toys later this week. Strymon NightSky ( :shock: ), Boss MD-500 and Boss GT-100. The first two will be for my main board. The GT-100 will be my office headphone rig initially, and allow my to dip my toes into huge multifx powerhouses.

The board will now have two stereo reverbs, a stereo delay and a stereo modulation pedal (maybe even a stereo OD/fuzz). My mono effects switcher really isn't cutting it!

Really should trade the MD-500 for a Mobius. Even though most people ruckonn the MD-500 is better.

After constantly borrowing a friend's crowning file I have one of these coming in the mail:

Reviews are very positive and when I emailed with some questions the owner of the company (Bernie) emailed me back in about 8 hrs which was a nice touch.

TBH not that much lately, more of a dissatisfaction of how good the Vibe & Octave is on my HR Gigboard. They're both pretty good but I can't quite hit the sound(s) I'm after
