What are you GAS-ing for?

I also have some younger twin brothers whose bday is Monday. Not to mention several other friends next week and another brother is the 30th. I usually eat out a lot around this time of year. Usually a Japanese teppanyaki place since we can all agree on that.

Maybe one day we can all have a huge party and let @Sp8ctre pay since he is Mr Moneybags....:hide:

How did I miss this??? I'm not near the top of the heap...that gores to @RVA and @Don O
 
Wouldn't really call it GAS but I'm seriously considering trading in some stuff I don't use for a Martin D16GT...


Go for the D16-T or RT. They have rosewood fingerboards instead of Richlite. The RT has rosewood back and sides instead of Mahogany. Either way, great bang for the buck. The D16 series are some excellent guitars. When I bought mine, the only bad reviews I found were people complaining that the model was discontinued.

There's not that much choice in left-handed models (at least here). Even less choice in lefties where the seller is willing to entertain trades... I don't really need it, but it'd be a way to shift some stuff that I'm not using and doesn't seem to be selling either, and it'd be kinda nice to have a decent acoustic.

I don't think I mind richlite as much as the fact that it's apparently glued in with epoxy...

If I can talk him into not having to bust out any cash at all I'll probably drive up there to check it out on Friday.

How to be an addict:
Step 1 - Go to Sweetwater. Try it.
Step 2 - Leave with only a few minor accessories. Start jonesing now. "I should've bought it"
Step 3 - Go home safely. Think about how it sounded, how it played, how well it fit you. It consumes your thoughts.
Step 4 - Play your other guitars for a cheap fix. They aren't enough anymore. You start searching around for it.
Step 5 - Get on the internet sites. You know you want it. Your friends do it.
Step 6 - Back on the internet. We're just gonna put it in the cart. We're not gonna buy it! It's okaaaaaay.
Step 7 - A few days later. "Why shouldn't I have it?" CLICK!!! Goodbye, money!
Step 8 - Pull up tracking. Watch every city it goes through. Will they be careful with it? Was it packed well? What if it's lost in transit???
Step 9 - Just when you can't take another second...DELIVERED! Rip open the package like a kid on Christmas morning.
Step 10 - Check it over, tune it...play it and forget about every care in the world. All's good & right in the world.
*Repeat steps 1-10 until you're dead or broke.
My name is Zzzz. I'm and addict.
G.A.S is no joke!!!

My method was a bit different.
Driving home from work 2 years ago , it was hot and I wanted to get out of my truck and stretch a bit. Happened to park at a SamAsh ,,,
