    I definitely have the same problem lol. I’m currently agonizing over which of my guitars and amps to sell. I have to sell about 7-8 pieces of gear. The worst one is whether to sell my modded JCM900 MKIII or my Splawn Pro Stock. The Marshall is old and so special, but I like the functionality and range of tones I can get out of the Splawn a little better. I know I could find another Splawn, but the Marshall is one of a kind. If only money grew on trees. T_T

    I understand, Trinity is way more versatile and has almost identical tone to M Zero. I am also planning to get Trinity in the future, but for my needs now, i own Skill 30 that waiting for master 2 mod at Mezzabarba. Can't wait to be done 😄 Few month ago, i sold Bogner Uberschall. I liked it very much but there was never place for that amp in any of my bands.

    I have been purging gear recently, especially guitars. Over the past few years I bought a ton of (awesome) guitars but a lot of them essentially did the same thing so I sold all the ones that were completely redundant. I'm actually still working on selling guitars. I would probably hoard more gear if I had space for it (and financial ability to do so - a lot of the things I like cost quite a bit of money so it's probably a good thing that I'm forced to consolidate my gear collection). Anyways, as always appreciate the candid video with utmost transparency!

    I tend to do this with both amps and guitars. If I find a guitar I love I try to horde them as well. I get the same question from other musicians; “why so many of the same guitar?” Because that’s what I like to play! In my mind I think why play something different when I like the other one better?

    As an avid amp collector, I have an insatiable desire to collect amplifiers. But then I realize i have too many and sell them. But then i feel i miss them or don’t have enough..so I purchase more…SOMETIMES THE VERY SAME AMPS I ALREADY SOLD. It can be a vicious cycle, so I keep a strict rule of 2 heads, 2 cabs,2 combos and 1 desk top. Currently they are:
    1 Splawn Nitro
    1 Splawn Quick Rod
    1 Quilter Aviator UK cub
    1 Peavey Bandit
    1 Yama THRX
    Guitars are another story…. Never enough.

    Bruh you looked so genuinely sad in the beginning I felt bad. At least you're getting a fair price and you have the Trinity still. At least you didn't spiral out of control with drugs like I did and sell all of your precious gear for a FRACTION of its worth because you needed heroin. I've since got clean and built up a new collection of gear(my new habit and equally expensive) but I still kick myself. Not necessarily for what I lost but why I lost it in the first place.

I regret it because I now have a different setup that would work better with some of them.

    Serious question, how do you stack your amp heads that high? Im 5'11" and I find it a bit hard to carry a 100w amp head when the height exceeds my neck. Do you use a ladder or just jack up your shoulders for overhead lifting? Haha

    Part of having GAS is to acquire as many amps of the same delicious flavor as you can with the genuine intention of determining which sounds best in an amp battle royale. Then once you've picked your favorite, totally renege on the promise you made to yourself to sell the others and just keep them all anyway.

    I am absolutely underslept due to my mind constantly spinning around the stuff I read and information I absorb as well. And it's not only guitar gear - also like tools, soldering irons, guitar related PCBs, Cameras for streaming etc.

      Yeah, don't feel stupid man. I do exactly the same thing. It's a modern disease brought on by the Internet I think. I waste hours researching how to maintain and mod amps, then hours more looking at all the tools I need and trying to find them locally. I buy guitars because I can't resist the look or sound of them, even though I know when they arrive and I play them, I'm going to sound just like I do on all my other guitars. I find myself scrolling through forums, review sites and online stores until 3,4 or 5 in the morning sometimes.

    I just bought a Schecter sun valley super shredder with the Emg`s and the sustainiac pickup and I will NEVER SELL this guitar. In fact I want it buried with me when I die. This guitar is so fun and so good that I can`t say enough about it. I would suggest that you be an experienced guitarist before buying one because you have to know your stuff about floyd rose tremolos and setting up guitars before this one will satisfy. I bought it from Amazon and it needed to be set up. Once it was, I was blown away by the perfection that this guitar truly is. If you buy it from Sweetwater, they will set it up for you but you still have to be familiar with floating tremolos before you get one. Everyone knows that the floating trems are tricky to work with. If you have never owned a floating bridge system before you will not be happy with the adjustments that come with it. I love it and encourage any shredder to try one. You will wonder how you ever got by without one.

    Makes sense to sell it though when you have the other, so I feel you. I also get the redundancy thing though. The absolute only reason I wouldn’t sell that here would simply be just in case the other one ever went down during a show that said you’ve got plenty of amps so as expensive as those are yeah I get selling it
