This is the latest addition to the fleet. A rare bird and really an indulgence. A little chorus, some flange and delay... sounds pretty cool. Been playing Silent wings of Freedom.. over and over..

Step 1 - admit you have a problem
Step 2 - convince yourself it's not really a problem....
(See also my signature.)
Congrats.

You forgot to mention the third step --- have an understanding spouse who appreciates that these investments are equal to or better than the 401(k) plan. Or a spouse who understands that your hobby is less expensive than those guys who go out buying boats and planes and exotic motor cars, etc.

Yeah, I'm spoiled. My girlfriend is bummed if I go to a show or store and don't bring home a guitar. I know that's not the norm. She actually was disappointed when a guitar case sized box showed up the other day and I told here it was one of her birthday presents....

Although they can be cranky, Rickenbacker made the best sounding eight stringers out there...
