    Yeah, I can understand how that must feel. But be that as it may, I'm sure you turned some "Ordinary" guitarists into knucklehead epicness

    Well I have a few regrets.

    Selling my 68 SG to get a Les Paul back in 73.
    Loaning a really nice late 60's Marshall 50 head to my mate who cooked the transformer - that amp is now gone!!
    - stopping playing for a very long time - family, kids, mortgage other interests (Karate) all contributed to me giving up.

    The one good thing though is that in the main when I buy a guitar I will hang onto it. I buy them cos they feel right - there's only one in my collection that I may move on though!!. I've kept most of my gear over the years(Marshall, Les Paul) but having discovered EB guitars there's no looking back !!

    "don't look baaaaaaaaaaaaaaack" as Boston used to sing.

    I have had regrets and did a few mistakes in my life but I aways try to go over it and those mistake always help me to move forward and become, I hope, a wiser person.

    For instance and to stay in the guitar topic, my lovely "Sandy" (ASS MM90 Piezo with a killing top) that is now replaced with Tangerine (Axis Sport MM90) that is just better than Sandy

    My regret was selling a Gibson DG 335. Bought it for 2300, sold it for a little less, and they are now selling on ebay for 14,000. Crazy right???

    Only regret would be something that either killed or seriously harmed someone else, which I think I havenīt done.

    Things are just that...stuff. They come and go.

    Enjoy them while you can, then have space for more to come!

    Everyone has regrets about the one they let getaway! Lucky for me since I got seriously heavy into EBMM guitars 6 years ago, I have never parted with any and the ones I own will go to my sons. I do wish I would of bought a few guitars I had the chance to buy 30 years ago though.

    Regrets? Personally no. I've sold my guitars to help pay bills and other things to help out in the "real world" While in the process helping out a forumite get an awesome ebmm =D. So it's been win/win. In time financial blessing will arrive and so will the guitars =D
