Are rewards still just GAS?

Ok guys, I’m nearing the end of my career as student. About 40 pages left on my dissertation and I’ll be Dr. Wim May 8th. During breaks I’ve been looking at basses, and I keep thinking about rewarding my accomplishment buy getting a new one.

Gifting yourself is a good thing, right?

I’d actually wanted to make the new Dargie the gift, but it just isn’t what I’m looking for.

I do love green basses, and I found a perfect one recently but it wasn’t made by Ernie Ball. For the record it’s color was Margarita Green, and I thought a Margarita Green would go great with the Martini Green.

I don’t even know if the perfect bass for me exists with availability. I want a fretless Bongo 5h, that is green–a green I like or love.

In the meantime, I did find something that I’d call suitable.

I’m a bit scared of pulling the trigger on 6 strings, since I’ve never spent time with 6 strings, but hey its graduation right?

Anyway, because I find this all entertaining I thought I see what you all think?

Have you ever rewarded yourself with a bass?

If you did, did you make it the grail or something readily available?
