Which GAS will you succumb to in 2013?

Good luck bro. These are tough times.

I'd rather be home with an unplayable firewood bass I just pulled from a restaurant dumpster than on a Mediterranean cruise.

Our family vacations are never about what I want! I normally end up chasing the kids around some sort of theme park several days. This year on my 50th, I am going to insist on getting something that I want that's just for me. At least once in my life I think I deserve it.
 
For my 50th birthday in March. 2013 Fender NAV 63 P in faded sonic blue.

And throwing this on the checkbook fire too just because it is so stinkin' old school sexy that it makes my heart go pitter patter. 2013 Fender NAV 64 Jazz in LPB with matching headstock.

I reserve the right to add as I see fit.

Those are two of my top contenders for this year. I sort of like the blue of the Jazz better than the faded blue. On the other hand, I love how P's feel and sound. Good thing I have time to think about it.
 
An ESP B1006, a 6 string fretless (maybe another ESP LTD series that I'll have defretted), a better practice/backup amp (Trace Elliot with at least a 15 in it)... assorted accessories (A Boss FS6 dual pedal for my ME-50B, 2 new hard shell cases, etc.)
 
Got a Micro-VR in december and it is in customs, so that's a GAS that will be fulfilled in 2013.

After the head arrives, the plan is to get 2 SVT210AV cabs to make my owm mini stack of doom!

Not for 2013 (OK, maybe, MAYBE) a Super J. Gawd knows how much I GAS for those Dingwall beauties...
 
This is funny, as I wrote this my kitten is literally ripping stinkers. Bought a warrior 6 this year and liked it so much I just bought another warrior 6 so I am selling my warrior 5 buckeye burl on TB and ebay.:hyper:
 
I'm definitely going to pay off the rest of the Squier Classic Vibe 60's Precision I have on layaway this year. Maybe a cheap 5 string at some point too. And I'll hopefully shift the Dean Metalman Z I've been trying to sell since about July 2012.
