How is that depressing? That rules!
That's only depressing if you bought them all new and lost $50 each when you sold them. Hell, the most fun I've had this whole year is buying-trading-selling pedals, and I'm not too far behind you. I'm sure I've hit @ 25-30 pedals I've done the gear-go-round with. And I've got awesome pedals now instead of 'OK' ones! Actually a couple too many keepers right now!

Only if you buy high and sell low. If you can buy for $50 and sell a month later for $75 it's fun.

Truth! I made about $15 selling my DE Cherry Pop and broke even on the DE Shoegazer, those were my two favorite flips so far.

I traded for a 2001 Indo Cort factory Squier Standard Strat last week. Now I really want to get a Xaviere offset and put the sweet maple neck from the Strat on it, and then sell the leftover guitar as parts so I don't end up with more project parts.


It's a toss up between the Xaviere JT90 and a Squier CV Telecaster with the SSminiH pickups. I think the Xaviere-Strat project will cost less and have more mojos when finished.
Got a MEGALITH about a week and a half ago (!!!) (and thanks to Ryan!), and have a Phaoroah on the way to joining the stompboxes again.
Built a little pine amp-head box for my little ss Traynor Guitar Mate too. I really like that little practice amp, I hope it lasts a long time.

I've made some, lost some, I don't really keep track, though I do avoid losing my shirt, so I guess that's a plus. It all evens out.
But yeah, the search is fun, just laying it all out made it look like a mental illness or something.

But I'm still going!
