What do you play.....

I am obsessed with guitars and amps..and really enjoy buying and selling stuff on e bay and have found if you buy wisely you can pick up a bargain  ;)
so the way I look at it I can enjoy money and if I need it I can sell stuff  ;D
I am interested in what gear members have...This is not showing off just curiosity in fact I sometimes feel guilty about having good guitars :-[
Here's my current gear

Yes, part of the homeowner policy.  It takes a couple of paying gigs a year to cover the premium.   :D

AlchemyMN, what's your feeling on the Alesis nanoverb?  I nearly bought one last week but then got confused by the Alesis picoverb.  I'm looking for a single inexpensive but good reverb unit.

I have used the Nano for some recording in the past, but honestly the built-in reverb in my VS-890 has taken over.  There are a few specific patches on the midi-verb that are still in use on a regular basis.  I still use the Nano in my rackmount acoustic guitar rig, it seems to work OK for that.  I can be kinda digital sounding if you mix it too wet, so use in moderation is advised.  They are going for way less than the original $99 pricetag on E-bay.

I am not familiar with the Picoverb unit.  It looks very similar, but it is 28 bit instead of the 18bit Nano.  It doesn't look like it has rate adjust, only mix and input.

Both units have a number of presets with mix and input.  The Nano has an output and adjust knob which give a bit more flexibility.  The midiverb and other digital units allow much more precise control (actual number instead of a knob position), plus the ability to save settings.

If you just want to process a guitar, Boss has a reverb pedal that works great.  I have the older one that has reverb and delay in one (RV-3 discontinued, and I forgot to put on my gear list).

Thanks, that was useful.  As far as the Boss RV-5 goes, I played that against the Line 6 Verbzilla and preferred the Line 6. Sometimes I think I just hear different things on different days.
