What do you really, really want? Just asking.

Here is what I have my eye on currently...

[jynxxxedangel]

I really, really want a 33-string Celtic harp-- such as these:

Corlieu Falls harps

The "Autumn Leaves" model (far right), in the maple, please!

my #1 wish is a Steinberger TranScale guitar, but I can't find a good pic. :(

...so here's an Alembic bass, a LSR doubleneck guitar and my all-time fave synth - the Oberheim matrix-12.

[Simon Bar Sinister]

sorry for the double post...but I found a demo video for the TranScale. The acoustic guitar sound from the under-bridge pickup is incredible!

[Scales]

Right now good Dizi (chinese flute), Armenian Duduk (ancient woodwind), and Stradivari Violin VSTi's as opposed to instruments, and a good microphone for baritone vocals.

Interesting..they use the old Hohner B2B "box" style. I used to have one of those.

[Joey Deadcat]

Fender Telecaster guitar, Gretsch hollowbody guitar, and a Mosrite (guitar or bass).

yep. Hohner licensed that design from Steinberger in the mid-'80s to use on a line of budget guitars and basses. very well made for the price.

Gibson Phil Leadbetter Signature Dobro

WANTS.

[jynxxxedangel]

I would also love to own a nice glockenspiel.

[jynxxxedangel]

Oh, and a glass armonica! These things sound SO cool.

That has to be the oddest steel drum I've ever seen! Cool, though.

[Reaper]

I want to learn the guitar, and I want to eventually get back to another keyboard/workstation. The Roland XP-50 I had was a bitch to learn. Even a friend specified in keyboards couldn't quite translate the english into real english lol.

ahhh, ye olde Roland manual, lol! I have a late-'80s Roland D-50 with all the documentation, and the manuals (yes, there are two) are (and I'm being charitable here) quite hard to follow at times.

back to the want list: this cute little micro-theremin!

[Der Nister]

[n0Mad]

DW drums and Sabian cymbals. It doesn't get much better than that.

Although that is a bit overkill. This is more my style:
