    One other product that I have consistently had great  luck across the board with is John Deere. Not only myself but my father and grandfather as well. It’s a given that nothing now is built like it was years ago. But even so, I have had good luck with the newer John Deere tractors and commercial cutters

    Agree. My family are 3 generation farmers in the MS delta. They're motto is, "If it isn't green, don't bring it home.

    OXO kitchen products. I use and abuse their products daily. They are like a Timex. Takes a licking and keeps on ticking. 
    Good call!  I've subscribed to Cook's Illustrated since, what, 2000?  And watch ATK/Cook's Country often.  Over half of the hand tool comparisons end up with an Oxo winner.

    Considered a John Deere tractor and ended up with a Case. Considered a John Deere Gator and bought a Kawasaki Mule. Still got a early 2000's John Deere gator that's on its 2nd engine and running like a champ. It doesn't go in reverse, the belt slips off every now and then and the seats are rotted out so you get wet ass if it rained last week, but it still runs.

    This happens. I'm not boasting about it but its reality. Unfortunately.

    Great overall list sir, but I must disagree with this one.  
    Duluth Trading makes great socks, and TV commercials, but their flannel shirts, and especially their underwear, suck!  
     
    I used to be able to count on good flannel shirts (XL-T) from the local farmer supply stores, but anymore the sleeves are at least four inches too short.  LL Bean still make decent, correctly-sized flannels, but at $50+ apiece, they're going outside my (soon-to-be) retirement budget.  Dammit.

    Nice list. Me thinks me spots a fellow guit player. Some nice gear listed. The only Gretsch in my current lineup is the G6136T-LDS. The Gretsches play very nicely.

    Also, there is something funny about your juxtaposition of the insomnia book and the coffee gear. 

    I agree that this thread has me Googling a lot of products that are new to me.

    Yep! Cooking, guitar, and coffee are my passions. I love Fenders and Gibsons, but the Gretsch blows my mind every time I plug-in. Same goes for the Klon. I would never buy one now because the prices are indefensible, but I got mine back when they were still being manufactured and paid a couple hundred -- money well-spent! I'm jealous of your 6136. Falcons are beauties.

    And yeah, I agree with you, the combination of the Insomnia book and the coffee gear reads like a joke from a Farrely brothers movie. The truth is, they are less related than they seem. I'm obsessed with coffee, but I only have one cup per day at around 5-6 am. It doesn't mess with my sleep. That Insomnia book is gold if you have sleep issues, though. Can't recommend it enough.

    Collinite auto waxes. They look great and have great longevity, even the #915 that has the most carnauba in it.

    @Botch I thought you were going to trade the job in to be a mercenary contractor on even more money?

    I've wanted a Boogie since 1982 or so when I learned Charlie Daniels put his fiddle through one.  They were $950 and Up, way back then, so...

    That's an odd amp choice to run a fiddle through, but who can argue with Charlie Daniels... I'm a metal-head so they've always been my preferred line of amps. The Marshall is hot-rodded with an extra tube-driven gain stage and Jose SAT switch - it's also a beast.

    What products do you own that you would most highly recommend to others? 
    The one product that immediately comes to mind and that truly changed my life is the mighty Muhle R41. With the single exception being straight razors, nothing else even comes close. It is simply in a league of its own when loaded with a Feather blade. 

    I never see anymore shave cream peak photos on here .  I miss them
