Lately I have developed GAS again, I want a YJM scalloped strat no matter what (a partscaster, low budget), and an Agile (or other brand) 8-string in white color. I know I have all the guitars I need already. Our place is not huge and is already stuffed with 6 guitars, but my biggest problem is time. I know I want to set them up and do most of the tech work and some minor->moderate repairs/mods, but this is limited as well. Not to mention money, things have gotten tough as kids grow up and life gets more expensive. But guitars are the only thing that is really "mine". I am sure many of you have been there. So what's the antidote for GAS? When heart points to one way but mind points to another.

And a strat/kit body and you're on your way.

The answer is to rip on guitar, because it's something that can't be bought, and youth can't catch up to, if you've done your homework.

Re: help me with my gas!
I find my GAS is strongest when I am playing the least. In fact, I find I try to "buy" time to do whatever I'm GASsing for. The cure really is to play as much as possible and enjoy what you have. When you have GAS during those periods of lots of practice/playing, it's a true need. ("I need a louder Amp to gig with, I need a second guitar for an alternate tuning, pickup tone or in case a string breaks, I need a certain pedal to play a song that I simply can't get with my current stuff, etc.")
Play, play , play and see what remains.
