Gear as Familiar(s).

So, Brandsthemannen has noted his Timebender is his spirit animal.
For myself, the idea of surviving without a Black Forest or my Iceman is pretty much unbearable.
What pieces of kit do you own that you feel a connection with? Beyond the normal realms of superlatives such as "like" or "dig it a lot"?
Talismans to the great ethereal dreamscape, enchanted weapons of ritual riffery, familiars to dazzling magic of aural light.
Or just shit that survived all your GAS induced anxiety and flipping.

I just saw that in the lolcat thread. Poor little guy is messing with his mum's tough front.
If you feel an intense bond with a cat you can play musically then I suppose it does count.
Although we should be wary of animal rights.
Vid is a Warlock Priest in the Cvlt of the Black Forest.
Have you thought about a Coven?

OK, then, it'd have to be a Green Ringer with a DOD 250 right after it & then a Klon/e ( w/ fuzz of your choice at the very front).
Everything else can come and/or go.

Man the Shruthi is real close but I'd probably go with the 303 (is that cheating?)

I had a feeling you'd run with the Ringer.
So chank is like the Green Lantern, except instead of a cosmic ring he has a cosmic ring mod.
And a centaur.
Made of pure distortion.

Whatever makes you more than you.

My spirit animal is ram the Manparts, followed shortly by FK CNCR.
Not on my board 100%, but absence makes the heart grow fonder.

I haven't checked either of those two out yet, but you aren't the first to tout their prowess.
This is my favourite part about threads like this, I get to go perv on new circuits.

… and, then, of course, the next thing to add'd be a four knob flanger.

I was just typing along and getting sappy about my favorite gear, and decided I'd keep my gushing to myself, haha...

hard to say since I'm ready to flip all of my gear if I have to and I've already flipped some gems. I would definitely feel naked without my RC-3 but I think my updated ct5 is the last thing I'll get rid of at this point

I think my Bass VI and V4 stack are mine. I don't know what I'd do without either.

This thread is pretty tricky!
I'm going to have to go through scenarios and work out what would annoy me the most if I had to flip it, and also which thing make me happy just because they are there.
Will report back.

It's probably the Verellen, the VI, the AVRI '72 Tele, the Black Fountain... And I have a sense I'm slowly starting to list all of my gear...
