GAS Fund but no GAS

Bidley

Perfect opportunity to buy that boring-but-ultimately-necessary bling PSU.

I have the same problem and my fund is pretty considerable right now!

Holiday?

Drugs?

Hookers?

Or combine the 3 and go to Amsterdam?

I can see 2 from 3 ending in divorce......

OK, I can see that.

Holidays always cause arguments.

but what's the problem with the other two ?     :o3

Seriously though, that is an enviable position to be in.

A discerning attitude, and money in the sock draw (or better) (out of sight and out of mind, and out of the missus way ideally too), and a bit of time to get over the urge to do the "hunter gatherer" thing, and you will be set right when you do actually need something.

Did I say "need", oh dear, I seem to have come over all "real worldly"   $-)

Mrs Monq doesn't like drugs.

By the way @monquixote please can you take some of my GAS away. There's a slight pissabolity* there's more gear incoming.

 

*Polite way of saying "I've just ordered more stuff"

And by stuff do you mean more drive pedals?

There's a good pissabolity the stuff incoming is drive pedals.........

I'll do thread when they get here. And comparrisons to my others.

Get a drumkit

I'm in the same boat, I've got about £300 sitting there but no real desire to get anything.

I've actually just sold some stuff to downsize because it wasn't getting played enough.

Been there done that. 

Once upon a time I used to have a full Yamaha Maple Custom setup with a full set of Sabian HH and Zil Ks. Played drums in a band for about 3 years. 

I don't have the space or opportunity to play them these days so it's probably something for my mid life crisis which isn't due for another few years yet.

Skipped

Do something amazing.

Remember - Peter Green would have still given away all his treasured possessions (including some guitars) even if he had not gone to that party in March 1970.





Probably.

No, not yet. I'm still tempted and there was another recently for sale.......hmmm?
