I was and still am over the moon with my 2020 Irvin custom. I keep telling the luthier (Wayne Johnson) that I feel like doors open every time I play it.

A little bit. I already own a NOS Irvin that had been my main guitar up until then. And I own a 78 Larrivee that is pretty special.
Other than that, I can see myself selling off my other Larrivees soon. I don't plan on ever buying another factory guitar again.

I don't really suffer from GAS, not like so many on this forum. But getting a custom has shut the door on anything other than customs for me. So I guess it has actually reduced GAS, or at least some of the causes of it.
