The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
Anyone have a good experience with/recommendation for a synth? That's a fairly broad brush, but I'm trying to get an idea on my first one, and (as always) there's many options. I'm trying to find that spot between affordability, ease of use, but also something I can actually get some mileage out of with performing/recording should I take to it. It seems like the Microkorg, Korg Minilogue, Novation Boss Station, among others, are some that tend to get mentioned when looking for your basic, foundational synth (the Korg Vulca Beats and Vulca Bass also seem like steals for the price, though they're not really similar to those others).
Went on a little cheap gear splurge and got one of those cheapo “IYV” mustang clones and a Sonicake distortion pedal. Hopefully the guitar is at least marginally playable out of the box

Ok, I’m definitely getting one of these two. The one above, I haven’t tried out yet. The one below here is what I tried today and loved it. The one below has larger body, no tremolo, and a tortoise shell pick guard which I’m partial to.
Main decision is tremolo or not...
ORDERED!
Purchased online via Pro Audio Star for less than Guitar Center’s price. I am pretty excited about this.

Adding a Bigsby to an inexpensive Indonesian Gretsch seems kind of mad.
You'll end up paying around half as much (maybe more) for the Bigsby and installation as you did the guitar in the first place.
I hear you.
Similar guitar models equipped with Bigsby were about $150 more. That is about how much a Bigsby costs on its own. I was planning to install myself, so I about break even.
I think it looks cool. And I bought this particular Gretsch (over other relatively similar models) because I love the color.

Click the link? It’s a silver/grey semi-hollow Gretsch
