Not sure but “sell gear” seems kind antithetical to GAS.

Recycling money keeps you married and with a roof over your head, and allows you to continue feeding your GAS :slightly_smiling_face:

Yup.

It’s “Gear Acquisition Syndrome”, not “Gear Hoarding Syndrome”. Although the two are VERY closely related. :smiley:

I think you are right. I told my wife that I would sell stuff in order to buy stuff. She has seen the buying, not so much the selling.

So, I brought home my latest acquisition - a new MIM Jazz bass - and my wife says “Don’t you have four basses now?”

This may portend trouble.

  1. Pictures or it didn’t happen.
  2. Always sneak new gear in, and ALWAYS make a big stinking deal announcing you sold something.

A void? Anti-matter? A bunch of air? Something from the Bass Fairy?

Was meaning to reply to @no.treble re his 4th bass. I would fall for such an excuse it might work
