guitar overdrive pedal image

My birthday is coming up on may 8th and i have been looking at guitar equipment i could get. But i cant find anything, I Have a line 6 amp, an esp guitar with seymour duncans, a wah and overdrive pedal, and thats pretty much all of the big stuff. I was wondering what some of you veterans think i could get that would be helpful. Thanks and anything guitar or headphones, etc. Thanks!

Hello there,
I would think you have a better idea of what you need than a stranger would. You get the gear you need (or as in some cases the gear you want whether you need it or not). So what do you need to get the tone you want for your music?
A couple sets of strings is always useful. Most newer players do not change their strings often enough. You should expect to get about 30 hours of playing time out of a set of strings. If you play a lot, you will go through a lot of sets of strings.
Nice guitar straps are an easy gift. There are so many nice looking straps around.
Picks are always needed. I keep a jar full of the type of picks I use. I go through a lot of picks.
A single guitar stand is handy. Don't store your guitar in it. But a stand is handy when you need to set your guitar down for a few minutes. Too many folks lean the guitar against the amp. Then if it falls over, you risk breaking the neck. If you have a lacquer finish on your guitar, don't leave the guitar in the stand for an extended time. Plastics, rubber and the like can affect a lacquer finish.
Do you have a good tuner pedal? What about a decent EQ pedal?
Do you have a FBV Express pedal to use with your Line 6? Or maybe a FBV Shortboard? What about a simple FBV-2 or FBV-4 channel switching foot switch?
What you ever thought about moving up to a tube amp? The Jet City 20 watt head is a great little tube amp.
This question is actually pretty hard for me to answer. I cannot relate to your situation. I am always thinking of more gear I want. I have no trouble coming up with things that "I must have." That probably explains the stack of amps, the boxes of pedals and the 30+ guitars sitting around here. I even have a few of those little battery powered amps. A cute little Fender (sits on my desk) and a couple Danelectro (I was a sucker for the surf green ones).
