my eyes off of it. The only cure will be to get one. I also want to put a
BA-II bridge and some new pick-ups on my Squier P-Bass Special (and maybe a
Warmouth neck - yeah, that's the ticket). Vox wah, chorus pedal, Maxxon
OD-808. And now I want one of those doggone Peterson tuners! Somebody help
me!I don't have an RPS for restraint...

I've got GAS bad (I've got gas too, but that is another discussion). I want
