Hmmmmm, I regret getting a Fender Thinline back in the day, which I sold a few years back.
I regret buying a Dunlop Crybaby because it's not true bypass and sucks tone, there were better dunlop wahs out there. And normal strings, I regret buying so many packs until I discovered elixirs -------------------- Guitars:

Lol most of my gear has been traded for lack of a better purchase.
I think the PRS CE24 was that buy. I was like OH MY! A PRS CUSTOM 24 USED!!! Ran down played it enjoyed it got home fiddled with it picked up my Ibanez S. Then the only action it really got was pictures to people or a friend of mine playing it. I turn around and sold it for some home stereo speakers.. Yeah it was so bad that I didn't even buy gear with it! Most things I had just didn't feel like me. Great gear but just wasn't me. I answered on another forum about how much do you think you've spent and what do you currently have. Over the years with the money I've blown. I could have bought Todd's car with cash! But it was fun getting to where I am. I found my love, I am down to 2 guitars. I may actually sell my Ibanez down the road but for a 7. I know what I want just will take me forever to get that money unless I get lucky and find it used. -------------------- Guitars:

I actually don't regret any specific piece of gear. Maybe KORG ax10b that I had for some time but I would now actually need it for rehearsals (we do it all through a mixer console so it would be handy now).
I usually really "measure" 10x something before I get it - to make sure its good quality. Maybe the fastest gear that came and go for me was a Digitech Bass Compressor pedal - but I managed to sell all my gear. Somehow - its pretty easy to sell (for a good price) musician's gear )) -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

I didn't bond with my Gretsch Power Jet, the neck profile was horrible and the TV Jones Power Tron's just too muddy for me.
My Burny RLG I like more now I have the bare knuckle Emeralds in it, but I do think I'm possibly more of a 25.5 scale guitar fan. -------------------- My SoundCloud

Mate, I actually never regretted anything I bought, for one simple reason If I didn't like it or realized it doesn't fit my needs, I just sold it. Easy as that and as Robbie Williams would say.... hahahah the same here! I don't keep things that I don't need or like... -------------------- My lessons

Mate, I got a question - you didn't like THAT particular guitar, or the PRS guitars in general, because it seems hard for me to believe that one won't like a PRS It was a beautiful guitar overall. I don't know if the neck was finished at some point and they sanded it or what. It had this unfinished feeling to it, I polished it and such and it still didn't make it feel smooth. Also I had to take the volume knob off because when I would play it would slowly turn the volume down. I've played a SE Allender and I enjoyed it in the store. But I have my love so all is well! A manager at a local music store bought an ultra rare EBMM JPX-6. I forget whats all that is different in terms of the other models but it has a toggle instead of a blade for pickup selection and one for piezo. He let me play it when he bought it, I fell for it. They had other models in the store but not the same kind. They didn't even feel the same. So thats when I went through like 5 guitars I believe. Then he traded it to his store and I rushed up and bought it. Been happy ever since. I've actually stopped buying guitar gear since. -------------------- Guitars:
