What's currently giving you GAS?

Aside from the bean burritos...

I realize none of these are very expensive. I tend to be a clumsy guy, and dings and such are inevitable. I've come to have a great appreciation for the affordability and quality of MIM instruments.

For me, a cause of GAS is one of the Squier Fretless basses. Been listening to a bunch of records by The SLIP and love that fretless tone. I've never owned one myself. The fretless P is also up there as well.

I'd also like an all-black MIM Jazz Bass to match my all-black Strat. The 3-ply pickguard with the white lines... Whenever I see one... GAS, GAS, GAS.

Finally, I love my MIM Agave Blue P-Bass to bits, and I'm always looking for another. These agaves...they've been difficult to track down.

As you can tell, I'm pretty much a Fender guy. I do really love the look of the natural wood-thru Epi Thunderbird Pro IV's.

The LTD RB-1004 at the moment. I know it looks weird and it's not a brand I ever had interest in before but seeing Rocco Prestia playing one at a clinic was absolutely awesome. Also want an Aguilar TH500 with two Monster Green DB112's... drool....
 
Right now an overwater sds fretless bass is the one and only thing on my GAS list. I have been debating on whether or not to contact them and get the ball rolling on a new build. However, it surely would'nt be the smartest move seeing as just last month I placed my order on my dream bass. In due time..
