A cheap-ish black strat. I don't care what it sounds like - I'll swap out the pickups eventually. Preferably rosewood fingerboard, but maple would work too. Let me know if you have one.

Either a Jazzmaster or a Strat!!

I think I've talked to at least one FM on here about this, but I'd like the sideways gain adjustor feature of my Fender Fuzz Wah in an enclosure that is not so big, not so fragile, and without the useless wah functionality.

The only thing holding me back was that I couldn't really get access to a decent soldering kit and I didn't want to buy one, but someone recently agreed to let me use theirs. Probably won't buy it for another while, though, but it'll happen eventually.

Trying to work out a deal/trade for one of these Science Hellhawks (50 watter)I really had my heart set on an old Marshall, but this looks fun.

I had time to kill so I pulled it down and started playing it. Fell in love with it on the spot. It felt really nice and sounded great unplugged (I never even plugged it into an amp). Unfortunately I really can't spend any extra income on new gear at the moment, but I did drop a hint to my wife that I have a birthday next month so...we'll see.Nice! This bodes well for hoping the Squier 70's Jaguars are nice.
