No. I limited the number of bikes, speakers, servers and now basses after I reduced the number of gf’s to one.
All good!

I hear you. My bass habit is self limiting- whenever I have more than two I get itchy to sell

6 seems to be the right number of basses to me, for now. Long time I’ve not bought one. I might have about 6 bikes too, something like that.
6 is definitly not enough for guitars and amps, obviously. Not at all.

I did look at Harley Benton 1x12 and 2x12 cab prices, but the shipping across the Atlantic made them uneconomical. I kind of want a guitar head and cab for absolutely impractical reasons.
After what I did with Gibson’s I can’t laugh at anyone 
yeah the Revstar is an excellent SG-challenger. Most possibly the best one currently.
Stop selling everything @howard ! keep the good ones !
Get a good 1x12 combo, really.

I’m torn between a boss katana and an orange crush 35rt actually. Leaning heavily towards the orange because I like the sounds people get out of them. Unfortunately the local used selection currently seems pretty terrible.
This is the other semi hollow I was pondering, Schecter dUg but right handed. Not a short scale so it shouldn’t interfere with your plans.

No it’s a nerdy joke that means “no matter how many basses I have, I’ll always want one more” 
It doesnt say anything about how much you value something… You can have any number of basses and value them a lot or a not at all. I’ve got 6 basses, they all do different things, I only play 1 of them the vast majority of the time. There are at least 3 more basses I’d like to have because they do something different from my current basses.
They’re all tools, I value them like I would any other tools. I like them, I take care of them but they’re just pieces of wood, plastic and metal 
I have 6 guitars and I don’t even really play guitar

I have 10 (EDIT: Sorry, 11) guitars and 4 basses, though my daughters have taken a liking to a few of them and with possession being 9/10ths of the law I think they can make a valid claim of ownership.
Only three bikes though. I should start riding again.
EDIT: Forgot to make my point. Need to sell some guitars to fund my bass habit.

Not only not short scale, but 35" scale.

This is why I like to modify stuff. Any stuff! Modifying stuff makes me really own it. I know every part, it’s function. I optimized it. And then I go and experience it!
That’s like that one mountain bike that I had for about 20 years. It was much too small in fact, but I modified a lot, I did some stupid stuff on it, cannot count the ways I fell of it. I had it when I lived in Holland, Belgium, Germany and England. I loved that bike!
And then it was stolen in f#cking Germany, just after I replaced some parts to make it even better.
For about a year I raced after everyone that had a bike that resembled mine (I am shortsighted, so there was a lot of racing), to capture and (well maybe not) kill the thief.
Needles to say I never saw my bike again.
But now, about 5 years later, I still look at every silver mountain bike, hoping it’s mine - even though I have one now that is many times better, from a rational point of view.
Point is: you can love things. But can you love many things?
EDIT people are only fles and bones. So?

It’s really nice when you eventually find an instrument that you don’t even want to mod, it’s great as is.
I know that will come as an unfamiliar concept for Fender Enjoyers

Yeah, I came across such instruments, ie something like the Duesenberg Starplayer.
I think the rule is: instruments that you don’t want to modify tend to be very expensive!?

Not really. My BB734A is a good example; no need to change anything. The pickups are outstanding, the hardware is high quality, it looks good, etc. All I changed was adding strap locks.
Similarly, my SBV’s have each had stock pickups better than any aftermarket pickups I have heard. YGD just makes pups I really like.
Conversely, both of my Fenders were great , very nice instruments, but I had swapped out the pickups even before I put on new strings

Hmmm, maybe I can put a short scale neck on it?
