I can finally afford my dream amp, but do I actually want to buy it? (Yes, apparently.)

Make it loud here.

What would you do?

Sure, buy the amp. It's a great piece of gear and you'll be able to use it to its full capabilities eventually.

Don't buy jack. Hunker down and use what you have.

Don't buy the amp. Spend a few hundred bucks on improving home recording setup and sock the rest away for the future.

Nice. I was never into Swarts until I saw the Buddy Miller Rig Rundown. I'd love to have the model he uses.
He uses a pair of AST Pros (AST chassis in a bigger/deeper cabinet). Probably a better match for the 6 string basses, baritones, etc....Also, I have mild GAS for a vibrato pedal after watching that.

He's awesome. I saw him with Emmylou Harris many years ago, and again with Julie at Bumbershoot maybe a decade ago.

You gotta get the Vibrato pedal. I have two of those waza reissues. I got them for $100 each used. Much better than $350-400 for an old one. Sounds the same.
