I tried fighting it for so long.. But it turns out i'm a straight-up Ampeg guy (but don't tell my GK that)..

Lol - I hear ya! I went through a bit of buyers remorse when I pulled the trigger on my 73 SVT.
Having been a GK guy for so long, I felt like I was cheating on my SBX rig! But when I ordered a Heritage 810 and played it for the first time w/ my 70's band - I was blown away (as was my band). Then last week, I was offered an impromptu gig with a bunch of guys whose bass player quit right before a gig, so I whipped out my 700rbII and SBX cabs and quickly was reminded why I liked GK for so long. I now realize that I have two great rigs at my disposal and I couldnt be happier. I also have a Mesa rig which may be for sale now because Im keeping my SVT AND GK rigs :)

I agree with a lot of you guys. I have so many options at this point. All together I have an svt4pro. A Hartke 3500. Heritage 810. Fender 410 and fender 115. All combined is a monster. Tried and true. But there are so many options to mix and match. And they're all satisfying in their own way.

My main problem is that i can't sell any gear.. I'd have the worst sellers remorse if i ever did.. "One day i'll NEED this piece of gear,, so i CAN'T sell it".. If i'm not currently using anything i'll loan it out to friends or whatever.. I think i've got 3 410's floating around somewhere.. Ha ha
