Dammit Pinball, these poor people are coming here for [b]help[/b] and you're preying on their weakness, to fund your own habit. Shame on you! :)

Hello, my name is Sharkfinger and I'm a bassaholic (Everyone intones "hello sharkfinger, that's a silly name")
I have been clean (down to 3 basses) for nearly 2 years. I have only switched amps from barefaced/TE to Roland (from skag to methodone, if you will) in the last few months.
We will always be an addicts.

Just one day at time....

EDIT: OK, I did have 2 kit pedals built for me last week, a big muff pi and wooly mammoth clone. It's under control, I can give up any time I want.

My wife thinks I'm addicted to brake fluid.

I told her I can stop anytime!

I have a constant fight against gas.
Currently I have over 150 pedals, 6 guitars, more than 15 basses, 3 bass heads, 6 cabinets, 3 PA systems and a variety of guitar and bass related gadgets.
Fortunately I haven't bought a new bass in over two years, but I did ask a friend to build me a modified Electra drive on Friday!
As you can see, pedals are my kryptonite. It's always just one more, but I pretty much always keeps them just in case!
My wife has given up on trying to reign me in- it's a nun achievable goal I'm afraid.
I've come to the conclusion I'm just a hoarder.
Hopefully it will leave my kids with some interesting bits and bobs, that may even be worth something ;)

I'd say with that amount of pedals . . . . . . you need way more guitars and basses! :gas: :gas: :gas:

Go to it, my friend and rest easy - you know it makes sense!! ;) :D
