At my practice space that I share with a bunch of people, this guys has an old GK 400rb. I have played it. I like it just fine. I can use it whenever I want. I also have a couple amps of my own to choose from. But, for some reason I have spent all day thinking about that little GK. Now all of a sudden, I want to buy one of my own. I don't need another amp. I really just want to run it with an 810 (which I don't own) and compare it to my normal rig.
So, basically I am looking to buy an amp that I already have unlimited access to and that I have played before and thought it was good (but not great) just so I can try it out with a specific cab that I do not own. I should have spent my day searching for a cheap 810 but, that doesn't interest me in the least. I guess my subconscious assumes that I can find one of those really easy.
Sometimes I obsess over the lamest crap.
This is why I surrendered (of my own free will) my credit cards to my wife.
Boy have I been there! The key is just wait it out. Eventually it will be replaced by another, yet equally illogical compulsion. For me, this can sometimes take months.
I wanted to buy this book last week so f'n bad. I knew I should just buy it used on Ebay or Amazon but I HHHHHHAAAAADDDD to have it right away so I paid $30 for it at Barnes and Nobles. I read the first chapter that night and haven't touched it since. Don't know when I will. It's not that I dislike the book but, my 7 week old son is hard to care for while I'm reading.
This thread probably belongs in the MISC. forum because it's more about my addiction than the actual gear.
