I think you are very sensible in you choices and they will probably be avable for years to come. It's wise to stick the same stuff and get know it well (just as an instrument), and it's probably the only way to tweak things in a predictable way. It's interesting that in the 70's (the last half for me) and 80's, we did not have much possibilities compared to what we have today, we had to stick to what we had. But the sound itself and the mixes could sound very good. Much of what's typical of the sound from the 70's and 80's was not about quality but sound preferences, well expect for noise, echo and other tape and HW artifacts.
