Winter NAMM 09! (new gear porn)

I really don't like this mother of pearl (or whatever else is called) binding schecter insist on putting on their guitars. I hope some of these beautiful transparent red finishes will be available without this hideous binding in their 2009 catalog.

Looks like an abalone binding to me...
 
I heard Tama Iron Cobras were getting discontinued/replaced? I need some confirmation on this before I go demand a radical discount on them from my drum store.

Doesn't look like it. Just seems they are adding the Cobra Coil to all of them.

If the price is right (better than Axis...), I'd get one of those Pearl Demons though...fuckin look SCHWAAAYYYTT!!
 
But....but....but....I need my 2 bass drums to bring teh brewt00lz. :(

Oh well. I'll just sell the Pearls and get a Risen set anyway :p
 
Awesome stuff indead :kickass:

I would've like a cheap tube bass preamp from ampeg but maybe I should have a look at the mini head anyway. The vox is interesting, too. And all those guitar amps :drool:, good thing I am happy with my own amp.

Any interesting new monitors? I'm saving up for a pair of A7s but would like to check out other options, as well.

Yeah, abalone, and I can't stand it either (it's on ESP LTD Deluxes as well), I find it to be so tacky and gaudy :erk:
 
Ahem, well my EC-1000 looks over-the-top in pics, but in person it's barely noticeable...wanna talk about tacky how about the black cherry finish itself? Quilt top!?!? Disgusting...might as well have a maple board as well! :puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke:

Haha, well, I agree on the black cherry quilt Mike, but you know maple boards give me a BONER ERUPTION :D
 
The word is that the Schecter 8 will be in that cherry finish only...in which case I say fuck that, the LTD FM-408 is much more appealing than the black cherry HellRaiser C8...for me anyway ;)

That small Ampeg is going to find it's way into my possession, that's fo sho. $299 MSRP, probably $200 or $230 or something retail. I :headbang:'ed.

The bridge is soo FUGLY though, it totally destroys any appeal the guitar has for me.

Now if only it was tune-o-matic and string through body....and maybe some sharks teeth inlays....or even better, ebony fingerboard and no inlays! :loco:

Oh and I forgot to mention reverse headstock. :headbang:
 
Nice to see Mr. Amott staying true to himself... by sticking his name on fugly hideous guitars. Good job!

His brother has more taste. ;)
