Are you GASsing for more basses of brands you already own or for other brands? Do you GAS more for basses, amps or effects?

This is the main thing I've been GASsing for. Rocco Prestia's Signature Conklin.

Also, a fretless 6 string Warwick Alien

Although i've never been a P-Bass guy, I've recently been GASsing hard for a 5 string P-Bass. I have no idea why!! I'm totally settled with the J-bass format, suits me just fine.

This P-bass itch.... they make something for that right??? :roflmao:

Since just prior to joining TB I've spent over 7k in new gear and can now say I'm Gas Free (finally) Brubaker KXB-5 Custom, Tecamp Puma 500 with Tecamp M212 Cab. Two Brubaker Brutes, Fretless Project completed, Reed James Custom Neo J/MM set and Bart Pre set for install in one of my Brutes. Geddy Lee Jazz Bass, Before that and still have 75 SX JB Copy. A Fretless bass in storage, 2 2x10 Cabs as backups, a Trace Elliot GPSM 7 300 as a practice head and an SWR working man's 4004 with BBE sonic maximzer laying in the Cut. Don't need or really want anything else. But TB did cost me most of the 7K.

Consider yourself having gotten off easy, then :) .
 
I'd like to think that once I get those 2, I'll be set. But we'll see. I definitely have more than I need, but I use everything I have. I get GAS for new amp/cabs and effects sometimes too, but it goes away quickly.

Brubaker Brutes are on my GAS list too. Sounds like you have a nice stable of gear.
