Yeah I know, but when I saw my finances and saw that I spent a significan amount of money / month on this stuff I had to cut some out...I think I was more addicted to the BST than anything else!

If you pace yourself, you can make this hobby and all the AD's last a life time, rather than burning out in six months.

I'm trying to follow this path. Although I have my eye on just one more straight razor. Actually, I have only bought two straight razors and two HD razors. I'm probably doing pretty good.

The BST is, to borrow a phrase from that great shaver, Honer P. Simpson, "refreshingly addictive"

And I was worried there was something in the water in Door County that made you recant of your ADs

Old Saw-

This is sage advice!

How many of us will follow your path??

Few, I would imagine...

cheers,

Well, I'm still at it. My collection is rather modest. My favorite thing to acquire is lathering products, but I try to space my purchases. There are still many products that I haven't even tried yet.

The one good thing about guitars vs. other hobbies though is you don't need to pace yourself, cause if you play/acquire too much, the only thing burning out is your fretboard/peoples faces.
