GAS, GES, GIS, GOS or GUS?

There are worse addictions mate, and generally GAS if done sensibly is a zero sum game

Better avoid that custom made bass cash loss kiss of death then!

Yes, the 'one more hit' sub category of GAS

Well, since that last post, I got my "one more hit!" Finally pulled the trigger on that Tony Franklin fretless ([url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/289582-nbd-fender-tony-franklin-fretless-precision/page__fromsearch__1"]NBD thread here[/url]) so I think...at least for now...I can change my vote to "GES."

(Am I in denial? Probably, but I'm glad I've scratched the itch for now...)

Nice, those basses look awesome.

Enjoy the high

Which is the 'can't afford gear because band member' option?

GIS needs a vote...

I had GAS for a P-Bass but I've cured myself of it by installing a series switch in my Jazz.

Only time will tell if the PBAS comes back

inevitably it will... P bass GAS is a permanent condition...

I have absolutely no need for a P bass and yet when I sold my last one I felt a bit odd not owning one. So despite still having no practical use for one I now have another ... It's a great bass though

GIS for me, unlike some fortunate folk on here i really dont have the money to play with GAS and the gear i have does what i need it to do it just i would love a better cab(s) and even though my newest bass is amazing there are others i would also love.

Definitely not. I got rid of my P-bass GAS 30 years ago.
