I've been clean since the 4th August but its been a struggle.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

I don't really have GAS any more, still buying gear, but it's really just purchasing tools to achieve my musical goals.... finding a direction with music was the best thing ever for me!!

I've given up saying I'm done. I'm tired of being laughed at when it proves a complete fabrication a week later...

I bought some new strings a couple of years ago.
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.

I am happy in the knowledge that no amount of money in the world spent on guitars and guitar-related trinkets will make be a better player. Longer fingers would, but I can't find anywhere that sells those.
