Please document the reason for your disqualification ;)

My will power was tested when I was approached to see if I was still interested in a fairly rare pedal I’ve wanted for a long time. Needless to say, I failed the test. 😂

I've been silent as I felt sure that signing up for abstinence was a waste of time as I have (or at least had) severe P bass GAS.  I was about to pull the trigger on a Player series that was reduced, when it went before I could commit :facepalm:. I'm now in a period of reflection having played my Maruszczyk  Elwood L, J type for a fair session (I had to stop as I was getting a tight, plucking hand, forearm - my practice regime has been somewhat remiss of late) and that P bass tone is right there, thanks to the Delano humbucking pickups (basically splits in a narrow housing), plus a variety of blends (well 5 in total to my ears) that the extra pickup supplies. So I'm still purchase free for 2022 (he says on just day 10)! However, I feel GAS will get the better of me and I'll see an offer I can't resist. But for now, I'm still in 😬.

Can I ask? Is anyone left?! I'm certainly not 😂

Yeah, I'm still in (technically). My Bo Selecta has still not yet arrived. Zero impact on my signal chain since the start of the year.

Me too, despite the efforts of others on this thread who have highlighted more than one item in the classifies to me.

All's fair in love and pedals.

Like rain on your wedding day

Andy T with no new gear to play?

Quite ironic.

 

But let's face it, you've been thinking about fancy new gear since 12 45pm on 1 Jan. And we all know it's the thought that counts 😉

I hadn't signed up so can't be out.

 

Can I?

 

Against the odds of anyone having one to move on, Davie @kodiakblair answered my wanted post for a Retrovibe Renegade, and so my lightweight Faker itch is going to get scratched very soon :)  Should be a nice little project.

Still good here. Got 2-3 I want to sell, whichever goes first decides what stays - it's quite exciting really. My band finally seems to have woken up after the New Year and we have a rehearsal Weds hopefully - that'll give me something to actually do with what I have.

We’re you ‘just browsing’ and tripped and fell on the keyboard, hitting the add to basket and then the confirm buttons? Happens.
