I have a very local CL ad for an affordable MIM strat up on my laptop screen... I can't bear the thought of calling about it, even though a decent (or better) strat is on my list.

Too many good instruments around these days, we are spoiled.
I guess I could call, but then may not want to offer much..

There must be a Shakespearerian (sp?) quote fitting this situation...

LUCENTIO: Preposterous @$$, that never read so far
To know the cause why music was ordain'd!
Was it not to refresh the mind of man
After his studies or his usual pain?

Although it doesn't speak to GAS directly, this may become my new forum sig.

Even, there are many good guitars today I'm not completely enticed to buy a new one.I rather to play my old stratocaster because it suits it my genre, and it also contains so many precious memories and funny moments too.

CL is a curse to me. I can't help myself when I see a good price. I have bought or traded four times in the past two weeks and am working on another one right now.

I completely resonate with this....good luck.

Share some photos, even if they are just passin' through.

I've only once seen a CL listing with a decent price - round here they always seem overpriced... Lucky for me, I guess:whatever:!

Most of these are "pass throughs". I have a few more to add when I get a chance too.

You'd be in a world of hurt down here in the GNV. Although a relatively small city, Gainesville has the largest state uni (U. of Florida) in the state, plus a huge community college (Santa Fe College. which also offers 4-year degrees as a satellite campus of St. Leo University), so lots of kids. Also, a fairly hoppin' original music scene. The result is that the muso-to-normal-person ratio is through the roof, and in turn it's frequently a buyers' market for gear on cl.

Although, I'm good for now. ;) https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/p206x206/599401_10151046705088879_1327109557_n.jpg
