Tim Plains Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 I just realized something - October is a bad month for me. October 2007, I bought an SG Standard & LP Standard. October 2008, I bought an R6, SG VOS & Stratocaster. October 2009, I bought a Traditional and I'm getting a Firebird. Could October be G.A.S. month?

surfpup Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 WTF? October is my birthday month and you are getting all the presents, Tim! Enjoy. Gonna keep the 'Bird stock or go the AXE® approved humbucker route? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted October 3, 2009 Author Share Posted October 3, 2009 ^ Good question, I have no clue right now. I definitely won't go the humbucker route but if I do make any changes, I'll start with the pots & caps. RS Guitar is having a sale next month and I already plan on ordering a few parts for my Trad. I might as well add on a few parts for the Bird since I'm already paying for shipping & possibly a brokerage fee. Happy birthday! My wife's birthday is also this month. Maybe I'll get her a guitar. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Happy birthday! My wife's birthday is also this month. Maybe I'll get her a guitar. lol Nice! Every Libra deserves a Gibson or two. Hey, the baby is due any day. Maybe I can buy him one too. Think the wife would by that .... hmmmmm... Maybe I can wait a month or two and find a Trad made on his birthday.....

I'm sure I will, since knee surgery last year, I haven't been able to mess myself up very much this year... Thanks for the well-wishes. I agree that Tim's are a bit more suspensful, than mine. Mine might be a bit more painful, if only physical... Either it will turn out all right, or it won't... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hmm it appears we might have a different meaning of the word "Bad" September (this last one) was a bad month. I work for myself so if I sit around I don't get paid' date=' I do networks and support for small businesses. On Tuesday I received a email from a client telling me a past invoice and current can not be paid and they are going out of business. On Wednesday I worked on site for a few hours and billed out a customer while I was there, I bill most clients once a month. When I get home after being at that office all afternoon I get a email from them telling me they can't afford to pay me either. Friday all my invoices came due and my bank account is allot smaller due to those two clients but my money going out to pay my bills are still the same. [/quote'] I am self employed also so I hear ya there, too bad there is not an easy way for you to disable their network and have a popup asking them to make good on the bill if they would like to use their machines......prolly get sued though.

Tim Plains Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Oh come on, it's a bloody joke. lol There's a 12 month no interest deal up here every October and it just adds fuel to the fire. G.A.S. takes over and the next thing I know I have two to three new guitars. Take a $2,400 guitar, for example. It's much easier to come up with $200/month than $2,400 all at once. The 'bad' part about it is that you don't fell like you're spending the $3,000...or in my case, around $7,000. See what I mean by bad? lol My record for Octobers...Back surgery '92 Eye surgery 2004 Eye surgery 2005 Back surgery 2006 Knee surgery 2008 You win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
