Rick hours per day?

Post by jdogric12 »

I recently saw someone ask how some people find all these great deals on Ricks, etc, to which Graham replied "substitute having a real life with trawling ebay, etc."

So I wondered, how many hours a day do y'all put into this interest/hobby/love/addiciton? I probably spend a total of 30-60 minutes a day on the RRF, 5-10 minutes a day on eBay, gBase, etc. and maybe about 2 hours a day actually playing them. Wow, I didn't realize what a junkie I am!!!

And you???

I'm probably right around double for each, except the playing (unless I have a gig, that is). I probably play 'em for an hour or so (lately my ES-125 and acoustic have been getting a lot of attention).

I asked Graham the question.

Looking (and GAZING!) at various Rics, I really don't know how many hours I put into Ric gazing. It's SCARY! :shock:

My Drug of Choice! Between surfing the sites and playing - 2+ hours a day. It'll go down a bit if/when my 360/6 FG and 660/6 FG ship - at least I can give the shipping lists a break...!
