You can say that as many times as you want, but it won't come true. Believe me.

Next is an erb, a fretless, a bigger amp, a smaller amp, recording equipment... Actually, now I'm a bit gassy.

Bean-o is a pill you take to reduce GAS - the kind you get from eating foods like beans and broccoli.

GAS is never ending. All you can do is try to ignore it, and be happy with what you have - especially if you are poor.

Congrats on a beautiful bass.
And don't let the "no way dude" comments get to you. It's a good feeling to feel like you're satisfied with what you've got, and it seems like you've got some nice gear.

Mat666 - check back with us in January - let's see if this GAS-free state lasts. Like a newlywed, you say that you'll stay true to what you have, but just wait till that cute little fretless catches your eye...
