My name is Kyle and I also suffer from CGS. I am in relapse as I suffered years ago and got the treatment (wife and kids). However, in the last year I have fallen off the wagon. Since June I have purchase a Gibson LP, Fender American Strat, Line 6 Pod x3, Boss ME 50 (for plunking around the house), Keeley modded Tube Screamer and Keeley modded Blues driver, Egnater Renegade Amp and am awaiting delivery of a Fender American Tele. Whew, I hope my wife doesn't read this or I might be single again. One of the problems of relapsing later in life when you have some money is you tend to go a bit overboard. Earlier in life I only wished I could have bought all these things, now I'm staring at them.

I think maybe it all has something to do with dreaming big. I just know that with enough practice some day I'll be as good as Anders, Douglas or Andy.
