I feel like the GAS subsides when you already have so much stuff that.... Then they come out with something new.
In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

The itch has been scratch following some water damage a couple of years ago one of my 23" monitors lost a vertical line or two of pixels, they display as a permanent blue line 4 and 5/8th " in from the left side. Which I have lived with but now they have been replaced with a pair of these 27" Monitors

You can't stop it, you can only hope to contain it. This year it's been a Line 6 Variax from ebay and a brand new Epi EJ200CE Jumbo in maple that I absolutely love. On order is a Martin 000-28 Ambertone. It's a 4-6 month wait for that, so it doesn't count yet. I've made an agreement with "she who must be obeyed" that 12 guitars is the number. After the Martin comes, I'll either be done or it'll be a sell or trade deal for any new guitars. Randy

Does she understand the "exceptions clause" where basses, baritones, MIDI instruments, mandolins, etc. do not count as guitars?

Oh these have been along time coming as I said one of the screens has been annoying for over two years, saved long and hard to these new toys joke is they cost less than the 23's did when I first got them.

Does she understand the "exceptions clause" where basses, baritones, MIDI instruments, mandolins, etc. do not count as guitars? No, I'm afraid that after 26 years of marriage she's on to my "craigfoolery". I'm pretty sure she has memorized how many red lights, VU meters, keys, drums, cymbals, etc are in my studio. I tried to slide the Variax by her by putting it in the middle of a full 6 guitar rack of other guitars. Nope! That was when she made the mistake of saying "Do you really need 10 guitars?" A brief pause by me and then I said "No, 12 is the number". I figured if I went much higher than that, she'd start furniture shopping again. That's some scary scat right there! Randy

Family resulted in the loss of one very nice set of Premier drums with a 6" deep steel snare and 12", 14", 18" maple toms and 22" kick, with Paiste sound edge Hi Hats with a mix of Paiste and Zildjian cymbals. All the drums were fitted with Rodgers control sound heads, Hayman Hi Hat peddle and Ludwig speed king kick peddle, all the stands were Pearl tripods. Sad day that all went . Along with a significant hiatus in my music.

I kept my old Ludwig kit (with a Gretsch snare). Now, one of my kids plays it. He's added a trio of roto-toms and a double bass pedal. All of my kids played this kit at various times, but one stayed with it. Very glad I kept it around.

Good for you Bubba unfortunately the room in which my drums were kept was needed for the new arrival and there was no other place I could keep them, also the senior management was less than happy with me keeping them.

More inner conflict to resolve now. To late I scratched the itch, twice now, but the second itch is awaiting delivery from a foreign land.

I can tell you right now , I want to get a reissue 68 Tele thin line so bad ..it ain't funny … I haven't raised the funds for it yet + I'm still paying this months bills … to top it off I wan't to buy this Tele for my B Day next month do you think I really care that I already have 3 Tele's ? NO i want what i want ……..when i want it Kenny knows GAS congrats on the new gear day when things arrive Kenny

Actually, getting a killer computer, X3e, and new interface and some studio monitors.... well after that, I feel I'm decently equipped that that ought to hold me until X4.
But seriously, I think the purchase of some really good stuff, makes the desire for quantity, to go down. Also when you run out of physical room as well!

rsp@odyssey.net I'm pretty sure she has memorized how many red lights, VU meters, keys, drums, cymbals, etc are in my studio.
How do they do that? Donna has no interest in what I am doing, but she knows exactly what is in my room. Of course, it was kind of hard to hide the drums when they showed up, because she had to drag them into the house. I probably should have told her they were coming .
