[kbaim]

Just think of how quiet this forum will be that weekend!!!
I better plan something else to do!

Like maybe buy your first eb guitar?

I like the sound of that!
That's a little over 3 weeks away.
I'll have to work my ass off and see what kind of extra dough I can generate!
(I'll keep you posted!)

Actually the question is: It's taken a very long time to get the first. So once the disease sets in, how long do I have before I absolutely must have a second, and third, and ...........

between first EBMM (Sterling) and second EBMM (SR4) i went about 4 years
2 -> #3 (JP6) was 8 months
about 6 months later I ordered #4 (HS Sterling)
and 2 weeks later i purchased #5 (Axis SS MM90)

so its like a downward slope buddy ... just wait till you start buying multiple EBMMs a weeek. LoL

Hey I'm game!

 

[Adwex]

do you have a passport? they'll accept that

A passport is even better than a driver's license for ID when travelling. I haven't needed one yet so I never got one. I've been to Canada and Mexico, but they'll let you in with anything.

Telling Pino Paladino that he had failed the audition to become our new bass player.

Well it was back in 1976.

The only regret I can think of is that I did not spend enough time dedicated to guitar upkeep. I developed the technical proficiecy, and songwriting skills, but neglected learning to do guitar setups. Now that I got the pet, I'm really wishing I had devoted time to learning how to do basic setups on my guitar. Not that anything has gone wrong with it yet, but because I am always in fear of the day when the action goes a little high, or the bridge raises. Because if it does, I am a retard and will be royally screwed!Knowing how tempormental the Pets can be in this humid weather, I am not going to want to run to my repair guy everytime it needs a minor adjustment. That is pretty much my only regret from a guitar standpoint.

Don't sell yourself short mate, setting up geetars is a breeze. 'specially these EBMMs, ask away...besides if I can do it, anybody can.

Not paying attention and not practicing more when I was young and taking lessons. Now I actually DO want to be able to play guitar well.

Not paying attention to the scales and lesson plans that my guitar teacher laid out for me. Now I actually TRY to play guitar well. I still have my lesson notes and it’s amazing what a bit of disciplined practice yields. It probably wouldn't have mattered though...seems I have a hand full of thumbs

Selling my 1964 Strat when I was 22, broke and jobless (Sob) Imagine how many EB’s I could buy if I had it now!

Not going to the first Steve Morse show that I was invited to. It was The Coast to Coast tour

I regret the fact that I wasn't born as a bicycle seat

 

[fogman]

LOL!

Poke those pants with a needle and they're bound to explode!

 

[fogman]

Do you regret not being married to Sharon Osbourne first?!?!

 

[Raz]

Do you regret not being married to Sharon Osbourne first?!?!

I'd have to think this one over!

 

[fogman]

Well Ozzy tried to kill her at least a couple of times, so you'd be entitled to at least one try!!

Hey aren't the crazy ones, the ones you want in your bed?!?

Looks just like a ripe apple!

C'mon, I'm not the only one who thought that!

Or even better yet, I regret that I was not born a pair of bicycle shorts
