But not addicted.  Just dabbling.

acceptance is one of the steps you must take!

Denial, not so much

Denial and loss are stages too, right?  I never should have let my last TBird go...

Hello, I am a Gibson bass addict because I believe they are the best basses in the (known) Universe.

Oh hello,
My name is Rob.
I think I'm in the wrong session...
My shrink sent me to the Fender Haters Anonymous.

But now that I'm here I feel better already. Thanx for sharing your stories.
I recognize some of it. To be honest I even own a few Gibsons. So I can really empathize with you.

Thank you.



oh while we're at it: are these EB3's really as muddy as they say?

Waiddaminnit....a mud wrestling match being watched by women in office attire...from an accounting firm? That has to be a first.

Maybe it's just an employee disciplinary hearing.

I understand you're herewith volunteering for membership in the disciplinary panel?

A friend from belgium offered me a Rivoli for 650 euros. That's like the normal price over here. Yesterday he tipped me a natural one on a Dutch auction site and I think I have it for 400 euros. I'll keep in touch.
