I Feel Strange...

...I'm not gassing for any new gear! I think I may finally be content with what I have.

As a matter of fact I plan on moving at least 5 of the guitars I have right now and two more when the
value on them goes up...if it does??? If not I'll move them along anyway...

I also need to sell an amp or two.
 
I hear you. Since we've been isolating I've been afraid to interact with strangers. At first I was still looking at Craig's List and Facebook marketplace but it was frustrating. I'd see a good deal but I couldn't go get it. Eventually I quit looking because of the frustration. I started going through all my gear fixing up all the little things I'd never got around to. I realized how good my gear is. I've marked some things to go because I was never using them. All the stuff I'm keeping is now in tip top shape. No GAS at all for new stuff. It is quite liberating.
 
Ive been to busy to REALLY gas--- plus --- I am broke-- and, I have --frankly-- anything I ever really wanted within logic (I have waaay more than I "need") -- and -- I SUCK -- and have decided { more like ACCEPTED} (finally) that I will not play ANY BETTER with a 2k LEs Paul than I do with a 129.00 Squire -----I dont ive tried back to back comps-- I still sound like me -- not Les-- not Cobain-- not Frehley---not Clapton---not King--- ME-- I sound like ME---
so Ive reached a "cant justify the buy" place--- (unless its STUPID cheap or I can flip it for $$$$)
I am leaning back toward cheap "mods" and a couple aesthetic changes to things I have and like for cheap and letting it go at that----even looking at moving a few things on down the road -- if its not getting played REGULARLY it can go somewhere that wit will be....(downsizing)
Plus its spring-- we had a surprise delivery of kittens --- stray cat that made her nursery under our house -- and a surprise clutch of chickens --- just this past week-- more mouths to feed more coups to build --
more work to be done.......

I'll ask again... Did you get rid of the Mesa?
 
Ill ask again...........which one?

to save time--- I still have the Subway Blues..............
 
I still have too much GAS! Before the current pandemic hit, I had listed on Craigslist my Rivera Quiana 4×10 combo. I wanted to experience the world of Mesa Boogie's. But now I too, don't want to deal with strangers till I'm more confident in dealing with the pandemic. Therefore I haven't renewed the ad for the Rivera since March.

And now, my current GAS is aimed at the possibility of an amp kit from V2 Amps. This kit will be a first for John of V2 Amps, and currently he's working on the final touches to get a good product out. I already have messaged him about joining the bandwagon for one of his kits. Unfortunately the process of getting his kits ready is also being affected by the coronavirus situation.
 
I mostly use the mesa as a cabinet for the Fender Super Champ head.................

and for the record I paid LESS for the MESA SUBWAY BLUES ALL TUBE USA MADE AMP-------- than I would if I bought a NEW Fender cabinet.......that is for the Fender Super Champ X2 ...............yes.......


BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA --- crazy like fox baby
 
My gas bubble popped like a year or so ago. There are guitars I'd like to have, amps I'd like to have, but... No gas for any really, short of maybe playing/jamming/gig'n with and for real people...
