Inspired by Steel's thread where he so wanted us to dissuade him from buying a sexy new tablet with fridge magnet qualities (a job we miserably failed at, especially me), I thought it would be fun to have a thread dedicated to discussing the latest gadgets and toys we currently fawn over, actually consider getting, or regret not having the dough for.

I'm currently fawning over the idea of buying a Crafter acoustic bass. I buy musical instruments and don't always get down to learning them. I end up just jamming away with them instead. But I would love to get back to home recording again like I did 20 years ago. It is very time consuming though. This time I would be using all acoustic instruments. I have a flute (Irish and silver Boehm), a violin which I don't know how to get a note out of, a mandolin which I can't be arsed learning any chords on and an acoustic guitar. I might have to take percussion lessons and get a variety of bongo type drums.
Our house in Germany is perfect for home recording. It's such a quiet area nestled amongst the hills and is at the end of a road. And enough spare rooms to devote one to home recording if I so wished. Even a whole flat if I really wanted. Only problem is that I don't actually live there but do regularly go back for holidays.

I so far have a nice acoustic guitar, an accordeon I inherited from my dad when he got a better one, but mainly, I took up the piano again last year. The choice of digital piano was a lot of fun, but I decided on the Kawai MP7 and I am extremely satisfied with it.

I've always wanted to have a shed out the back with a fully stocked bar, full size billiards table and a juke box.
