Gear acquisition syndrome. Throw music software in there as well. Keep in mind what I'm about to share here goes back to starting about 2007, but I recently fired up Logic for the first time in a while and it went through the plugin scan at....wait for it...600+ plugins.

I first started my musical journey in the early 90's, computer sequencing was barely a thing and recording onto a computer didn't exist. You had to buy hardware. Comparatively software costs loose change...which partially explains my above confession.

Who else suffers this?
 
GAS? naaaahhh!! Never been a problem. I know how to control my urges. Hahaha! I wish!! :D

The man cave has no more space for guitars and the computer is built soley for Cubase which I needlessly pay out more for every time there's an incremental update. Then there's a couple of pointy headstock guitars, an old line 6 Variax, another bass and some keyboard controllers stashed in the attic, and I have a Helix LX and a ancient Roland VG88 somewhere.

That’s a very respectable collection. :)

What a magnificent collection, wow!

I still just have two guitars, my strat (American Standard) which has a double coil on the bridge so it serves my needs all around, and a Taylor acoustic. Most of my other investments are in amps and stomp boxes.

Damn Goport, how wide is that monitor? lol. Love the shortcuts on the keyboard as well, I gotta do something like that

Hi Podgod. haa, both items seemed like a good idea until I finally got them ;) The monitor is 49" diagonally. It looks great but rarely gets used to its fullest. The editor keys keyboard was another "good idea" that reminds me every day that its a pretty crap keyboard at a premium price. The shortcuts are useful though.
