Talking vintage, I just wish I had kept my Niles era SlIngerland kit. First (and best sounding) matched set I've owned. Had saved and saved and bought a lightly used 13/16/22 set from 1969 while in high school for $400 in 1971.

@Marcel also builds a fine guitar. A man of many talents, indeed!
My son and I both occasionally hang out with musicians. Some people refer to this as being known as "the drummer."
Anyway, his kit...

You do know your post will be an absolute waste of space without pics!
Time for my update, too! I pulled the trigger on the X2 Super Champ Head and cabinet. It is arriving tomorrow, and I certainly can't wait
Played through a Roland JC-77 at a jam at a rehearsal studio last week. Thing sounded great. Owner of the studio told me nobody ever uses that amp. I think I am going to ask if he will sell it to me.
Nice.
You think she is good now wait till that speaker loosens up a bit....
and keep your eye out for a beat up Marshall cab (not MG or Valvestate) on local Craigslist too!
When you feel frisky change V1 to a better tube, maybe a Tung Sol reissue 12ax7
That'll do!
The Fuse software is fun too! Really the SC head is one killer rig! I'm kinda diggin British tone at the moment but I am always hunting CL for one of those.
