Last year I made a decision that seemed prudent for my life situation. Mid 30s, a demanding career, 3 wonderful children (12, 6 and 4, all boys), a wife who has her own career that is very demanding and not an ounce of free time. In my basement collecting dust were:
3 Les Pauls (Standards)
Triple Ch. Dual Rec
4x12 Rec Cab
2x12 Rec Cab
Wireless
Pedals
and so on...
I sold it all. I kept an acoustic to mess around on, but all of my electric gear was sold. Anyhow, long story short...bad move!
I just recently purchased a Blackface 2 Ch. Dual Rec. of which was dated a 1992 with the help of some members of the forum in another post. Also purchased was a used LP Classic (previously owned one of these...the 500T in the bridge is a pretty beefy P/U), and a used 4x12 Rec cab (not sure, but it looks to be older as well). It all sounds very amazing. I am still experimenting with the settings on the amp, but enjoying every moment of it. I guess among this rambling I should come to a point. I used to live for playing music...bands, gigs, writing, etc. I don't have the time for that life anymore, but it appears that I am not going to be able to shake it all together either. Balance is the key, and I am glad to have come full circle.
