Wink How old were you when you were diagnosed with G.A.S. and when?

Well, how old were you guys?! I was late 13...and now I'm 14 and G.A.S. changes everyday.

Anyway, I thought this would get more attention in the Off Topic then any other forum.

Puberty does strange things to your intestines. Try eating more roughage.

An acronym for "Gear Acquistion Syndrome." It just means you want to buy more gear.

If it was me I'd run around the house naked rubbing cheese wiz all over my hairy body screaming something incoherent about Santa Clause and a turkey baster.

That said, I didn't really have bad G.A.S. until the d... dirty interweb led me to this site.

I had immunity to GAS right up until the age of 31 when my old Peavy Amp died it's final death. I could've got it repaired for a hundred bucks or so, but I decided it was time for a new amp................I've had the disease ever since and it's gettin worse!

Some have cured it, but some continue to always blow out their money on their new/amp cab ,or a nice bass. Sadowsky seems to be the cause of most G.A.S. cases.

Cool

Can't let this thread die. Not all of my threads have to be failures.
