Don't know, given the option of grabbing another of something I already have or something similar but at least slightly different I go for different. Just like having different capabilities to expand my choices.Les Paul Lover wrote: Having an exact same back up is nice. I sure wouldn't mind doing that when I have the funds!
I'm fully with you, space and finances dictate that if I buy something, it has to be different to be justifiable. But I'd quite like to get another AD15, I love that set up. Not likely to happen in the short / medium term though.a.hun wrote:Sounds like a great deal. Hope you love it!![]()

Recent examples? Wanted another good comp so I didn't have to change settings for very different instruments. Would have been totally happy with another MXR Bass comp (brilliant for bass, guitar, anything really), but chose the xotic SP comp instead. Good choice, well happy.
Grabbed another Squier CV '50s Tele. Wanted one guitar strung lighter, had been playing a mates guitar with 9s and enjoyed the more sensitive string bending / finger vibrato possibilities. Having discovered Teles it had to be another. Chose the model with the more powerful Alnico 5 p/ups instead of the A3s on my first one as I knew mine hadn't sounded so good with 9s. (Actually according to the website they both have the A5 p/ups now. Not sure if that is true or not.) Very happy to have both types - the different colour finishes while both lovely didn't decide it for me, the specs did. And the p/ups, like the guitars themselves, are easily good enough to be keepers.
Have to admit though that I was hugely tempted by the black R.30C which sat for years in a shop near here. (Love Oranges in black, and my favourite guitar combo - what could be better?) But simply couldn't justify a second otherwise totally identical amp and really didn't want to sell mine for the money I'd get. (Also my lovely wife might have been locked up for murder, which would have been a shame.) Was hugely relieved when someone else finally bought the black one - torture over!![]()
I have backups yeah, but they are always different. That's just me I guess.

Thank you!Ronnie Robinson wrote:You've done great there and that's a lovely les paul shame you don't like the 60s neck
I've also recently (about 2 months ago) bought an ad30 (but the htc) for ridiculously little money, it had been on ebay a couple of weeks and was local so made a cash offer. I absolutely love it and much prefer it's tone to my RV 50..... So maybe that (the RV) will be going the distance at some point in the future there's just a couple of things that I'm fed up of with it - like it's flabby sound when u use Od pedals on the clean channel but there's no rush. But anyway it will be the AD30 getting played this weekend.
I'm currently looking for a good quality Od to use with my Ad30 as I like a variety of OD tones. My OCD sounds good with it but still looking for another.
I know, I was so pleased to get it!!!!Randy Bass wrote:Holy crap! That Les Paul is amazing!
