In that case, you’re doing it wrong.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

I’m one away from Peak Guitar and being able to cure my GAS.

I want a Tele. Not any Tele, a great Tele. A Nash, LSL, Xotic or Nocaster. Something like that.

My GAS has always centered around what the guitar does rather than what it is. I’m lucky enough to have a collection that makes me go ‘wow’ every time I play them. The only gap is a classic old Telecaster.

Do it. Buy a fucking great Tele.

I'm looking at some overpriced Fenders this coming fortnight and if any one of them is a great guitar I'm bloody buying it.

Yes, I’m starting to feel the desire for a nice Tele again. And null pointer hasn’t had a long enough turn on our merry-go-round Lake Placid Blue Suhr. Not much around at present that fits the bill for me...

Gassing for something that makes cool noises. Think I'll pick up the Boss synth when it comes out.
Loving it so far

Vaguely wanting something new for the pedal board, not really sure what. I don't get a ton of use out of my big muff so thinking maybe a different flavour of fuzz or overdrive that will stack with the hotcake. Hmph.
