I thought this was going to be a thread about electric cars.

About a year. Unfortunately I now have MAS (mandolin acquisition syndrome) which I am finding is far worse than GAS.

7 years. Although I just purchased a Breedlove guitar it wasn't due to GAS it was due to necessity after my $2,500.00 custom Taylor was destroyed! I hope to get another Taylor sometimes this year but even that is more out of necessity than GAS.

I was gonna say "What is this GAS FREE concept that you speak of?"

I honestly feel that I am gas free as far as acoustic guitars go. I have two decent guitars and one that will arrive in a few months. I will then have all my bases covered based on my personal tastes and needs.

About a month!

The only thing I'm interested in right now would be a parlor of some kind, but I have a strict one-in/one-out policy and I'm very committed to keeping what I've got.
