yes actually, this is the 6strngs method to getting over gas

1: admit you have a problem, this is always the first step to every successful rehabilitation process
2: admit that the problem is actually a problem.. in other words, you have to have a desire to get rid of gas
3: hide the catalogs, you don't need useless temptation
4: stick to the cheapest guitar you have, and play that guitar, and only that guitar until the only way to improve the tone is to improve your playing
5: give all the rest of your gear to me, because I want it
6: give me all your money, so that you have nothing to buy more gear with
7: who needs the other steps? you're problem is solved and I'm a richer man! :D

failing that, just do what I did and spend all your money on a car, so you have nothing left to buy gear with.

anyways, my name is nathan, I've been playing guitar for about 18 months, and have had gas for about 12. I have two guitars, three amps, 4 pedals, though no recording gear :( my wishlist is long enough to stretch the entire length of my street, and I wish I was being paid more so I could actually start getting some of the stuff off my wishlist
