I would say Sheen, boots, Phage, Guinsoos, maybe a chain mail/Negatron cloak, and a giants belt/catalyst. (switching around health for armor/mres as you need them)

I really dislike working on items one at a time. I find more use in getting different parts as I need them and having a little of everything early on, rather than just damage, or just defense, until I get the next part.

If you do Sheen, Guinsoo's, Gunblade THEN defenses, that's pretty far into the game (and a pretty good amount of gold). You'll most likely be too squishy by the time you have all of that to make much use of it.
