Default They're multiplying...

Started out with early Cargo off Reverb. A little dinged here and there but a bargain and no worries banging it around an airplane or my truck going to the cabin. Sounds pretty good plugged in and passable unplugged. Started to think "well lets step it up a notch" and finally hit buy on an Emerald X20 baritone I'd been watching for the summer.
Whoa!!!
This thing is a beast. Plugged into my Kemper with a Neve profile it's magically intoxicating. The low end is off the charts and the electronics are excellent. Hmmmm...
So now I have a McPherson touring coming in Tuesday. Is there a cure for this GAS?

Take two more Cargos and another Touring, get some sleep, and it will all be better in the morning. That is what I did and have been fine ever since.
