1 or 2 pedals

So, I came on here, got in some fights, changed my name, redeemed myself (I think), got in debt, got in more debt and now I have the most fun playing guitar with at the very most 2 pedals (fuzz and delay) and my amp reverb. I have seen lots of rad shit that I thought I needed come through my garage. I have had tens of thousands of dollars worth of gear in and out, sold it, flipped it etc you know, just like everyone on here, and now, I just want my $100 fender 2 12" and my chinese tele. Am I getting old? yes, I'm 37. Am I getting sick of noise, I think so, as much as I fight it. I really hope I don't turn into the 40 something dude at guitar center in a flannel playing tom petty on a crate amp turned up all the way annoying the fuck out of everybody. So now I have this synth (minibrute) that I don't know how to play, a few pedals no one is bitting on (janus, etc) and I just want my money back. Addiction is a evil thing my friend and I am going cold turkey after I let these loose. So please help a addict flush the rest of my junk (my pedals/synth in bst) and send any offers.

On that note, I want to thank everyone on here for all the kind words about my tracks in the music thread, trading with me, paypal gifting me, trust etc. You are a fine bunch and I wish I had the cash to fly out to a ILF meet/show.Also, thanks for reading my rant. I'm pretty sure that in 6 mo's I will have a board full of effects again, thats the life of a addict, but I hope not for my credits sake.

I'm pretty much down to 2 or so pedals as well...as far as guitar goes.
I have a few others that I keep around that sound better with Bass or that can be used as a backup if something breaks.
Although I've never gone into crazy debt, I've had a lot of shit come through here (TWSS) in the last few years too.

In the past 6 months, my GAS has changed from:

"IWANTTHATOMGI'VEGOTTOHAVEITNAO!"

to

"That's pretty cool, if one ever comes up used at a good price, I MIGHT pick it up."

:idk:

I'm not in crazy debt, a couple thousand, but I have to be all or nothing. Thats just my personality. I wish I had self control like that.

nar the 200 is a decent price, but since the pedals already in customs and it does all the fuzz i pretty much need thered be no point in me stacking fuzzes. good luck on the sales though

Instead of dropping your price here, spend the 5 bucks to list them at TGP for a month. They're pretty crazy for Walrus stuff over there. The noise clones not as much, but you never know...

I think I'm going to post everything on ebay when I have a chance. Just thought I'd give ILF first dibs.

Spacefuzz, it's all about what makes you happy in the end. Ever since I joined ILF back December before last, my GAS was out of control. I, like you, flipped everything I had until I realized that I didn't NEED to try every new pedal that comes out, it's about what works for you. If 2 pedals work for you, that's awesome! Not to say resisting GAS here is easy to do. But just find what works and stick with it! I've realized now more than ever, being on a budget and really THINKING about purchases before I make them, I talk myself out of 95% of the impulse buys that I would have gone for a year ago

I think I am following the same path. I realized how out of control shit was getting last week. Now I am taking control back. Thanks man.
