#79 You know the day and time of the week when your local Salvation Army type stores in your area put out new merchandise so you can go down and look for good bargains to build new CBG's on a weekly basis.
#78 You regularly peek into random trashcans "just in case."
#77 you scour the house for old electronics to canibalize... er repurpose into amp parts or pickups.

#82 - You broke your left ring finger and the first thing you tried with the new splint was whether it would work for a slide.

 

It doesn't, BTW which is why I'm not wearing it.  :P

 

And just so you know I'm not BS'ing you. . .

 

the pickups out of your '59 Les Paul didn't sound as good as you thought they would in your new CBG so it's back to the cigar shop for a better box for a rebuild.

Gotta do a little number realignment....

 

#72: You pick up junk you can't use, because "I might figure out how to use that someday." God, I hope I don't end up on "Hoarders."
