Very interesting interview with Ricardo, however, in almost every clip, he appears to be using different pieces of equipement. A least, he & I may have "G.A.S." in common.......lol.

(for those of you new to the BB, "gear aquisition syndrome" :>)

With so many manufacturers asking him to try their products, he must really be enjoying himself. I wouldn't say he has G.A.S.

if he did pay full price and had a lot of stuff, i'd say he has g.a.s. but who is surprised?
if i had a good paying job, or even a bad paying job, i would be suffering from it to.
but im a student/freelancer and can only barely afford nudles and beans three times a day, so the only thing im suffering from is a lot of gas... :P
(althought i have a set of chadash on its way, and a chris hill mpc, and ive just bought a new Eb mpc. so... maybe i'll clasifly as g.a.s???)
regards

"i have a set of chadash on its way,"
All matters of g.a.s. aside, I heard a Chadash Bb clarinet played last weekend (at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, Clainet Festival) and it sounded mavelous. Big, warm rich sound and even scale--you have much to look forward too, pelo. Enjoy!!

In the beginning of the video - do the upper joint rings and keys look to be highly vented to anybody else?

I think clarinetists are just playing in the sandbox when it comes to G.A.S.
Visit any of the major guitar forums - e.g. Birds and Moons, one of the Fender or Gibson forums - and poke around.
I bought a Les Paul a couple years ago that came into a guitar shop where I used to work. It came in as a result of a guy who decided he needed to thin his collection a bit. He showed up in a Ryder truck. (And yes, he was a long-time collector, not shady.)
The shop owner bought or consigned some 70+ guitars from him that day.

When I was an engineering student, I took a class on the design of analog integrated circuits. My lab partner was a graduate student in Electrical Engineering who had done his undergraduate work in mathematics, but had experience "in the real world" working in electronics design.
One day he told me in no uncertain terms that the best analog engineers are all guitar players. They hone their skills designing effect pedals and amps!
So there's yet another bug out there besides G.A.S. There's G.D.S., too....gear design syndrome.

LOL. G.A.S still sounds better--the acronym, I mean......
