I've been playing guitar on an off since the mid 70's (more actively in the last 10 years though). During my first 25 years with the hobby I had only one acoustic guitar, one electric, and one amp. I've been slowly accumulating "stuff" since then. Over the last 12 months though I've noticed a dramatic upsurge in my GAS. As I am waiting for my latest delivery from EBay, I took an inventory of what I've bought & sold over the last 12 months & am wondering if i might need a 12 step program...

 

Bought;

Gretsch G-9320 mandolin & gig bag

Yamaha FSX-700sc acoustic guitar & HSC

Squier VM Jaguar & gig bag

Seymour Duncan little 59 tele bridge pickup

Bigsby B-6 Vibrato

Pair of GFS surf 90 pickups

Squier Bronco Bass

Lace Sensor pickup for said bass

2 Sennheiser e609 mics

Fender Blackface Princeton Reverb

Epiphone ES-339

Epiphone Les Paul Ultra

MXR Phase 90

Boss DD-6

Couple of harmonicas

Unknown quantities of picks, straps, cables, strings, etc.

 

Sold;

Epiphone Les Paul Ultra

Alvarez RD-8C acoustic guitar

Boss RC-2

Boss TR-2

Fender Hod rod deville amp

 

I'm sure there's crap i'm forgetting.

 

How has your inventory changed over the last 12 months? Am i normal?

I traded an old JC120, which I simply did not want to haul around any more (even though it is a great amp) for a Fender Mustang IV that can do the Jazz Chorus thing quite well and is actually quite a fine amplifier for a cheap MIC model.

 

The JC120 went to a festival backline where the Mustang had turned out to be too complicated to have in that role where many different players would be using it and needing to find a sound quickly.

 

It's good the see the old dog getting some action again and that shimmering stereo chorus is almost worth the lug.

Sold:

 

Nothing, though I am giving away my mahogany dual P90 SX Hawk to the nephew of one of my buddies; he's learning and has a Jay Turser Tele. I thought I'd give him another horse for the stable.

Traded a Marshall JTM30 for a Mustang III. I think I finished building the guitar in the picture within the past year as well.

Do you have the Duchossoir Strat bible? It is very detailed and helpful. I have the first edition, but it is packed away for moving right now.

I bought a capo and a set of strings to give to a friend (does that count toward selling?) I bought a new Dragonfire tortoise pickguard for my Strat. Bought a new Rapco/Horizon patch cable on eBay for my modelling pedal (my old cable was pretty short). More recently I bought a used Roland Spirit 25 A guitar amp for myself and an Ibanez IBZ15B bass practice amp for a friend and subsequently gave it to him (again, does that count toward selling?) Bought a dozen assorted picks in two installments.
