Wow, welcome to the unemployment club. Sad to hear that you had to get rid of the gear, it's the one last piece of value I'm hanging on to in my world. I hope things turn around for you... and me too, sh*t.

Where are you at right now?

Rough times! Hopefully you find gainful employment soon, or at the very least have some memorable experiences on the road. Think of it like an extended roadtrip...?

Thanks all. The extended road trip has been pretty cool so far, we are heading west on I10 toward California, then who knows, right now I am near San Antonio TX headed toward Carlsbad Caverns then Roswell. It was sad to see my old partscaster strat for sale at the pawn shop but at least they had her in the front! (for $650) Maybe I'll build another just like her.

All my best to you Will!
Things will turn around very
soon I hope.

Take good care of you and your
family, don't sweat the gear,
you can replace that...you still
have your family and that is the
most important thing!!

You have yourself and your family....that is all that is important. I have been in the same boat. I am slowly making a comeback. Besides, post here....we miss everyone.

I hope you can enjoy the California sun....better times are round the corner and this time perhaps it'll be more sustainable when things do pick up. All the best Will.
