Due to the pandemic, what unused gear you got you're itching to play at the next gig?

[mep]

I've got a Marcus Miller Jazz on long term load from a friend which I'm keen to play. Really love this bass.

All of it ... if/when I find a decent band to join.

Well, the basses, the shuker and the EHB haven't been played a gig yet, but they have been played at a practice so I am happy they are good.

The ABM600 hasn't been gigged yet, so that is what I am interested in hearing with both speakers

Right before the pandemic, I bought an LTD AX 414 & a BC Rich Platinum Warlock (yeah, I play metal lol!) to use for upcoming gigs but still haven't used them for live shows. In the last year I've also acquired a Subway D800+ di and a Darkglass AO preamp pedal. Sounds great at rehearsals but there's nothing like LIVE. It made me wonder, what new or unused(live performance) gear are you itching to play when the venues open up?

I'm itching to play that with my big band!

Probably my Tech 21 VT500 head, and definitely my Barefaced Super Twin. I ordered that just before the lockdown started.

And my little Ibby Mezzo 5 string. Maybe I'll use the 3 together at the first rehearsal in Sept.

I've not gigged my Warwick Hellborg rig yet, the first gig can't come soon enough!!!

I’ve used a couple of Markbass heads for ages but never paid the cabs much attention until recently. They’re great for what I’m after - lightweight, modular set up that’s easy to fit in a Fiesta. 

Ditto, I use a couple of NY121s which fit easily into the boot of a 5dr Mini.  I know the MB cabs have had criticism but I've found them spot on.  Looked for something to replace them with a couple of years back but couldn't find anything that competed on price/size/weight/rating at the time.

My Orange AD200B head which was funded by a chance pay out last summer. I did manage to use it for one show between lockdowns in November 2020 but it certainly hasn't had the use it would have had compared to my live schedule in 2019. The photo bombing drummer has been with me a lot longer.

Yeah I remember trying them a long while ago when I was using a big heavy Aguilar 4x10, and preferring my Aguilar.

But that’s long gone as it was too heavy to drag around. For what I do (mostly city centre gigs with rubbish parking, and a whole range of dep bass jobs) there’s not much wrong with Markbass stuff.
