Currently a Mother 32 and DFAM combo. The tone of these machines is just insanely good. With a touch of reverb and delay, it sounds so awesome that I’ll add a second mother. Endless drones, soundscapes etc.

I don’t have it anymore and it’s a sequencer, not an instrument so I’m cheating. But besides being great it looks great.

I’m thinking about saving up for one of these baddies
I feel like its calling to me, I’m reading through the user manual and it looks like something I could get a lot out of(I reply to person above me)

My Rickenbacker. My JMJ Mustang is actually my favourite bass - and the one I reach for for pretty much everything, but there’s just something seriously lovely about a Rick.

Pic of the mustang please :heartpulse:

Probably my Suhr custom guitar and Moog Sub 37 with my Elektrons in their austere post modern styles.

In my case I was saving for a big knobby synth like the OB-6, but I found a used Cirklon and I bought it hehe. In the end I figured out I just needed a couple of groove boxes to jam so I sold it with my synths and got Elektron boxes instead.

My Martin is a thing of beauty hanging on the wall.

Of course :slight_smile:

Nicest feeling and best sounding bass I’ve ever played.

What are you playing?

A MIM Sunburst Fender Jazz, came into my hands in a kind of funny way so I’m pretty attached to it. (Last bass was malfunctioning during a soundcheck in Sheffield, borrowed the Jazz from a local tech, liked it and he sold it to me cheap). Should probably upgrade the bridge and pickups at some point soon.

Would love a Mustang at some point, looks lovely in that colour too!

My (customized) Gibson Les Paul Custom, late 60s. It used to belong to Heinz Kramer, one of Berlin’s first Jazz e-guitarists, who had it changed to a lefty (hence the second cutaway) since it was actually less expensive than buying a lefty that way.
It’s heavier than a regular one, because they left the original buttons’ mechanics inside.

Basses keep rocking this thread, that Mustang looks amazing.

This is my most beautiful instrument <3

A very lovely 1.8 Kinko shakuhachi, purchased from a dear friend, who purchased it from his teacher, who purchased it from the maker, who’s from Kantau, Japan. I haven’t played it for more than a year; now that I’ve taken it out and had it in my hands to photograph it, maybe I’ll play.

I would have to say that my Roland Aira System is the most beautiful instrument (system) that I own. Something about those (mostly) green lights!
