I'm scared. I think I'm GAS free :oO
« on: September 16, 2009, 03:23:09 PM »
:o

* My amp situation has been completely sorted since my Martamp Orion was Power Scaled
* My pedal board was completed a few months back with an Empress ParaEQ
* I picked up my WezV custom built Esquire a few weeks ago
* I got some new cables and a tuner recently via a small bonus from work
* I went to the Leeds and Bradford Guitar Show last weekend and got bored(!)
* I'm selling my remaining PRS McCarty Rosewood as it's just not getting used

So looking at all that I think I'm done?  it's quite an odd situation to be in.  I'd like to try a Bigsby equipped guitar at some point but I don't think I'd use it enough to justify buying one.

Have I REALLY banished GAS??????  If not, what on earth would I buy next??????

When you think you're GAS free, it's like the first person to die in a horror film but they don't know it yet.

It'll hit you soon.

I got a great new amp, very happy with everything, but I discovered last night I HAVE TO have a James Trussart Steelcaster Deluxe with the F hole and a humbucker in the neck.

So what guitars are you playing most at the moment? I am guessing the Modern Eagle, Fano and your Teles?
I am sure your tele phase will end soon, and you will suddenly decide that single coils 'aren't really you' ;)

I seem to remember you saying you afforded most of your guitars through credit cards? You could make sure they are all paid up I suppose, even if it does sound boring :D
