    Is there a cure ?

    So,

    I've been a long time lurker here, having been a previous Stingray owner. I STUPIDLY got rid of my old 2006 LE SR5HH last year (I know, it was a stupid decision, and I've regretted it ever since). Anyways, I thankfully purchased a new SR5HH and I'm sooooooo happy now! practicing with it and recording with it, just holding it . I have a 2005 LE SR5HH on the way also ...........

    My question is this...... I have this uncontrollable want/need to have more MusicMan basses and it seems to be taking over...In the past I had just the one Stingray and I thought it was enough (maybe I was afraid and that's why I sold it..), now that I have another on the way, I keep seeing more that I want.....Just seeing the EBMM headstock makes me happy/fuzzy inside... Is there a cure? I need help !

    Is there a cure? A cure for what? I'm not sure I understand the question.

    I feel ya. I just bought my first Stingray a few weeks ago and I'm already looking to sell other instruments to buy me a fretless. Then I'll need a 5 string, then a 5-string fretless, then back to a 6-string but it'll probably be a Bongo...it's an epidemic!!!
