Pulled the trigger on a ZVEX Seek Wah on fleabay. Joe and Curly's Amp Show report got me looking at Zach's stuff. I like the idea of waht the seek wah is supposed to do. Wish me luck.

Ordered the Matchless Lightning clone as well. Looks like I'll have some soldering to do soon. I'm really looking forward to this one. I love that Matchless/BadCat tone and this is a package this is not so expensive that I feel guilty for not playing a lot.

Good luck.

We'll be expecting full reviews in the near future.

i told you i went nuts...

i had been putting away cash from previous graphic design side jobs and landed a new BIG one and had my b-day and college graduation so i lost my mind and went nuts with pedals and such. granted, only one new guitar but like i needed another one anyway...the maiden strat makes lucky #13...how fitting hahaha. i'm amazed i managed to buy pedals and such and not blow all the cash on one guitar haha i'm happy i didn't actually, i needed to finish my pedal collection.

so, who's the gear whore now lol

i need mental help...either that or someone take away my debit card lol.

I can watch your card for you.

I now know what Xsssive stands for.

obsessive complusive disorder. most of us have it bad, you take it to a new level.

obsessive complusive disorder. most of us have it bad, you take it to a new level.lol, it's true...i think i may be obsessive compulsive...everything i do has to be A) perfect and B) over the top C) done yesterday. my plate on my car reads XSSIVE actually and that's just me. my close friends love it when i buy them birthday and holiday presents lol b/c i spoil them like my family. on that note, my family to be honest with you are all like this...i think it's genetic. my one brother has an obsession with home audio/video, another with fishing gear, another with hunting, my father also has a hunting obsession and collects guns for it...along with my first cousin...my mom is the only one with any form of restraint and doesn't have a hobby but she does get very very wrapped up in her work.

-Mike

HAHAHAHAHAHA

i just realized i gained my name...well that one sure is fitting lol...thanks Scott!!!

-Mike

Scott..nice score on the Seek Wah...that is one edal I wish to this day I had never sold! I had one of the first batch on them, loved it but a time came when it saw very little action so I sold it...I am still putting off getting another one. That are very cool!

-Mike

Nah . . . don't delete it. Its fun to read about new gear.

I want to know what you think of that Z Vex Seek Wah? And how close to a real Matchless you can get that kit sounding? Be glad you didn't try to build a DC-30, you would have never finished it. The Lightning sounds like a much simpler amp to assemble.

And guy's, never feel guilty about buying music toys. Feel guilty for throwing money away at Vegas, buying cocaine, tipping strippers, or paying parking tickets.

wait, i shouldn't tip the strippes anymore? hmm that would leave tons of cash for more gear J/K

-Mike

yeah, thats true. Music stuff helps us put out or make something positive. Like playing a gig with a new amp-you feel great about your tone, and the audience is enjoying it as well, but probably not as much as you.
