The only things I quite fancy at the minute are too expensive for presents, so no real Christmas GAS list for me  :(

bah! humbug!

:)

A phrase I use very often at this time of year.  Especially when bloody Cratchit expects the whole day off on Dec 25th.

Yes, curse him and his crippled boy!

If anyones parents etc keep bugging them for things to get but you dont really have anything you're after - get a Planet Waves string winder :) I just got one and its awesome. Winds strings well (bloody well should for a tenner!) and also has a nice handy string cutter, plus acoustic bridge pin puller (though I cant actually figure out where this is/how to use it :oops: maybe I'm just a bit slow)

I bought one of those two years back. They're very useful and quick.  :D

I've been gassing for an Axon mkII midi processor for my kitchen sink equipped Feline Lion. I'll have to buy it myself though. I had to buy a new washing machine and giant LCD telly first so it's delayed my plans a bit!

You know what?  I've got every guitar and amp I want and some nice pedals too.  3 guitars that meet all my needs and look beautiful and two very fine tube amps from California.  No GAS at all.  I should be happy, right?  NO!!  I'm very freaked out by being so contented with my lot.  I've lost my materialist edge and strangely enough I now have more money than at any time in my life before.  I guess it's like the old folks used to say about having things too easy. 

Oh, hang on, just realised that I only have two Les Pauls.  Is this enough?

Get some Bare Knuckles then reavaluate your gas.

Don't be silly. Get a Gibson ES-339. A bargain at £1200
