So I have this bass guitar I'm parting out. It's a 1983 Peavey T-40 that I bought as a sophomore in High School some ten years ago. I bought it with the intention of being cool, but I quickly learned that being cool involved actually learning to play the bass guitar, and fumbling around with a 40 lb chunk of wood wasn't nearly as much fun as I thought it would be. So I packed up the bass and it sat in the case for the next 10 years.
Well, lately I've been trying to sell all my excess stuff and looked at the bass once again. I was originally drawn to the sunburst body, but now I see lots of neat little design details that make this guitar special, like these control knobs. Turns out I bought a guitar that is somewhat collectible now, and probably will be even more so in the future.
Unfortunately, the neck is warped, and in trying to fix it we broke the truss rod. I called up Peavey and they gave me good news and bad news. Bad news is, parts aren't available anymore. Good news is, parts aren't available anymore, so the guitar is worth more apart than whole. So I set to work taking it apart, using my news off-camera flash setup to produce nice photos for eBay.
I think I've learned a little bit about letting go. Holding onto something that has meaning for you is fine, but holding onto something hoping it will become meaningful is an urge I have to fight. I am a gearhead, so it's tempting for me to start amassing a big collection of stuff in whatever hobby I'm currently into, but that soon makes it more about the stuff than the hobby, and it's not as much fun.
Oh, and if you're wondering what I'm buying with all the stuff I've been selling, hopefully you'll know soon enough. Yes, it involves more gear.

This was in the basement to control the generators in case of an attack. There was a filter system that would intake air from outside and filter out the radiation and impurities every 2 days in case of an attack to allow for "fresh air" to be cirrculated.
