Is this natural?

I ordered my first Ball a week ago or something, a JP6 DDII. I still haven't got it and I'm already looking for more Ball's..

What's wrong with me?
If only I had the money.. >.<

 

[Spudmurphy]

well it is kinda addictive when you discover a manufacturer that meets and exceeds you expectations.
Five years ago I would NEVER have thought that I would now own 5 EB guitars

It's tragic, totally tragic. No cure, I'm afraid.

The weirdest part is trying to explain to someone who is not a player why you have so many guitars.

I found that the worst thing currently is explaining to someone who is not a player why you bought such an expensive guitar when there's "so many others out there". When I try to explain how awesome this guitar is, they're like.. "Guitar like guitar.. what's the difference? ". Kinda gets downhill after that, lol.

I usually just leave it at ... "because I want to".

I'm sorry to say, but it is a terminal condition. There is nothing you can do about it but to satisfy those urges. Posting pics of your DDII will only boost someone else's addiction, so please share.

Yeah, I say that too. But that's what I meant with downhill, at least discussion-wise since the discussion kinda ends there xD

@up- I'll definitely do that once I recieve it Shipment has been delayed...

Well I talk big, but really it's more like "because I want to ... is that okay honey?"

Who exactly are you talking to then? I have yet to meet a fellow musician that really believes all guitars are created equal...

If you look closely Mike, I actually said that I was talking to someone who is not a (guitar)player(/musician)

 

[Big Poppa]

you are normal the rest of the players have issues!

 

[Sweat]

[PugNinjas]

I was pre-approved for my next purchase by my better half

Ah - I missed that. BTW, I re-read my post just now and it sounded mean. Was definitely not meant to be mean - I was supporting your argument.

Welcome to the forum.

With that kind of people, I usually put it on cars. Like, do you get the difference between a Nissan and a Corvette Z06? It usually works.

p.s. I own a Nissan, so no bashing involved

 

[Tanax]

Haha, that's quite good!
And thank you Mike

 

[kbaim]

It's worse when even guitar players ask you why you have so many of the same guitar?
