    For me it was was my first amplifier. I didn't know how much I liked it until I had gotten rid of it. Fender Stage 185. Pretty awesome on the clean channel with a little 'verb.

    Non EBMM gear well no, glad to be rid of it, now EBMM gear well if I had regrets I would be sitting here crying like a baby, but i am not for every cool EBMM I sell another comes into the fold and at least I had the time with them, you know they are all great but sometimes they have to go to make way for the new or different

    In my case it always seems the other way around; I sell a guitar and then wish I had it back.

    I´ve never sold anything I loved. I´m a bit of a collector.
    OK- I "only" own 5 gits - 1 of them is an EBMM, the others are the ones I loved over the years.

    I try to take care of what I have and not care of what I have NOT (aka GAS): I try to avoid it, but it´s not easy

    In 1981, I sold a 1976 G* Flying V. Up until December of this year, it was the best guitar I'd ever played. Thankfully (and not to kiss-a**), my JP6 BFR is the best, now.

    I have no regrets on any of my guitar or gear sales. I always thought that I would regret selly my customised Guild Brian May, but its been over a year now and I have no regrets at all.
