The anti-GAS thread

[jessenator]

blugh...

Those mini jobbos from behringer are paraphonic. Not great for poly experience. JN-80 seems too much, and is preorder right now. Monopoly seems like a decent compromise, though it's an odd duck. Hmm. Pro-800? Though the selfish part of me wants the SH-5 clone…polyphony be damned.

Don’t buy anything if you are hungry, angry, lonely or tired.

O man those gasprices. 2,32 Euro for a liter Euro95. That will stop you.

 

[pricklyrobot]

Hmm. Pro-800?

I think it’s probably the most bang for buck of their polys. And it will easily get you into John Carpenter vintage horror/sci-fi soundtrack territory, if that’s at all your jam.

I had a real Prophet 600 for many years that I was kind of nostalgic for. So I found it impossible to resist this one

It’s been out long enough now that there should be plenty of used ones for sale.

Yeah. $5.40/gal diesel here. Thankfully I don't have to commute anymore, but still. I filled up when it was still $3.50

Should've bought my next oil change at the same time, though liquimoly toptec 4000 isn't cheap here anyway with tariffs.

Same, same, same.

Good thing I never leave the house.

yeah true, if the cost of housing didn't already..

Hmm post disappeared when editing.. odd. Diesel in the UK would be $8.63 for a US gallon at the moment. Good thing I get decent mpg..

I celebrated my 70th birthday and began my eighth decade on this glorious planet on 03/20/26

It gave me really bad G.A.S.

$13k-ish.

Another cure for GAS: Farifield Circuitry pricing a pedal that goes beep boop at 550 Euros.
LMFAO

I could easily go for a full Fairfields pedalboard. That is the Pedalpcb versions.

It doesn't even go beep boop!

 

[andare]

You're right, if you go beep it goes bee-ee-ee-p

 

[jwyles90]

You're right, if you go beep it goes bee-ee-ee-p

Or bbbbeeeeeeeeeeeepp, depending on the size of the room! For $500!

 

[jessenator]

Okay, definitely something to not do to alleviate the GAS is watch Alex Ball

Six a gallon for regular here in Kalifornicate. But it was 4.60 a gallon while the price in the other lower 48 was 2-ish…..

California has more oil deposits than the entire middle east but we buy oil instead of mining it “to save the planet”

I go to a guitar lesson once a week- it’s been fun learning jazz on guitar. Anyway, to tie it to this thread, I walk through a guitar shop to get to the lesson room. A lot of times when I get back home I mention “hey, I didn’t buy a guitar today!”

I just now realized the true purpose of a double case… that’s how you sneak in the new ones!

But for real the wifey is super cool- just yesterday she was looking at swatches with me for my custom build.

Don’t buy anything if you are hungry, angry, lonely or tired.

That's literally what keeps the economy going, dude

Hungry? Fast food
Angry? Lifting and beer
Lonely? Gadgets and beer
Tired? Social media and beer
