Instrument gadgetry

I’m honestly beginning to think that my love for shopping knows no bounds. I have a few expensive loves which, I obviously realise, cause my wallet to explode in abject misery. Here’s my ridiculous list:

  • Branded bags (e.g. Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Burburry, etc etc)
  • Gadgets (e.g. mobile phones, computers, cameras, peripherals, etc)
  • DVDs and CDs (some Japanese imports)

If that’s not enough to blow the bank, I’ve also added musical instruments to my list. I’m currently looking for a synthesizer, preferably a Korg. I’ve always wanted one and no, I’m not buying it just for the heck of it. I do play these instruments. I’ve also got a nifty Yamaha APX700 electric performance acoustic and a violin which I can barely screech on.

Don’t forget my eternal love for great Japanese food.

In other words, I’m pretty much screwed.

Nonetheless, I’m on the lookout for a secondhand Korg in decent condition. If I had the means I’d buy a shiny new one. The little brother tells me it’s practically droolsome. Naturally, I’m inclined to believe him as he’s quite the musical guru.

Here are a couple pictures of some instruments.

My APX700 in Sandburst. Plays and sounds like a dream. Pity my current lack of mad skillz.

And on my wishlist:

Notice how the coolest instruments are always featured on black backgrounds?
