Your latest G.A.S. purchases

Quick question:

Currently I am playing through the Harley Benton G212 Vintage (2x12, V30) cab.
I am using it for rehearsals, gigging and recording.
I’ve been offered now a used Mesa OS for 650€ / 730$ (which is a pretty good price over here).
Do you think it’s worth the upgrade?
I assume the Mesa is better. But is it that much better?
Anyone here who had both?
 
These are so sweet, I had to buy all 3 of them in bubinga, I'm so weak !

Gonna answer the question myself today, as I just bought the Mesa.

Wow...this is day and night.
The Mesa absolutely crushes the HB.
Sounds waaay bigger and has tons of low end.

I really liked the HB, that's why I was unsure before.
But right now my question seems a bit silly to me.

I was afraid of the Mesa beeing too woofy and having a loose low end.
That may be even true if I wasn't using a tubescreamer.
But with the tubescreamer the low end is tight and powerful.
Love it!

Just picked up a 1997 Jackson RR3 that is getting ready to get overhauled. Pickups are getting swapped from the EMG HZ to some Seymour Duncans, probably the Nazgul/Sentient combo. Hoping to have this ready to rock in a few weeks, depending on work schedule and family schedule.
 
I just got a Rode NT1 for a good price on eBay. That's my last purchase for a while. Time to start making music! :)

I might buy the latest TSE x50, though. I've got an early one and it's awesome. Having said that, if the Thermionik demo is good, I'll buy that instead.
 
Zilla Fatboy. So nice :)

And Sennheiser Momentum over ear V1. They were too good a price to resist.
They sound great and are super comfortable.

Roland GP 100 and Alesis Quadraverb. Trying to achieve a Devin Townsend esque wet tone using the GP 100 and my Line 6 Helix.

Got the new SG today, love it!!! Great sound, great sustain, & I think it looks great too!!!!



The Audix i5 arrived with it:



They didn't get here until about 5-6 pm this evening, & I didn't have a lot of time to play through the amp, but so far, it's great!!!
 
How'd you like that on guitar cabs?

They should be here next week. I'll let you know but chances are that they are similar to the T-bone RB100 I already own. In that case, they'll be too dark and boomy for the job. Not the poor man's R121 unfortunately.
I bought them because they should be freaking cool on drums though.
