Originally posted by robgski Just like camera equipment, if you don't make an effort to learn your instrument , and improve your technique, the best gear in the world won't make anyone's creative output great.
I own 4 basses, one Strat copy, and several amps, and haven't played any of them in years. Life keeps me busy.
Maybe this winter once I've gotten rid of a lot of unused stuff, and my work schedule relaxes a bit, I'll have the room, the time, and desire to play again.
At least my guitar purchasing habit is fairly dormant, unlike my LBA
hahah, tell me about it! I went from one guitar, to 16 guitars, down to 3 guitars.
after buying tons of random gear which were all great in their own right, I'm now down to three. 2 electrics, and one acoustic. Do I play them half as much as I should?
No.
But each time I pick em up, they bring a smile to me for those 5 minutes I am playing em.
Really should plug em in and enjoy them some more. Maybe one day.
