Guitars (Page 1 of 2)

I've only got three, but go for it Roger. You really can't have enough

Knowing that I need something else to keep me occupied, my wife bought me a double-neck guitar kit to build. Does that count as one or two guitars? Presently I have two guitars, a banjo and a mountain dulcimer.

i have 7, 2x 6 string elec, both fenders. 2x 6 string acoustic. 1x 12 string acoustic. 1 crappy elec (which should be boxed or sold or burnt as firewood, but i have a gas boiler) and 1x 4 string bass.

I've always said that guitars and kayaks are like golf clubs - you need different ones for different situations.  I've got 5 guitars but there's 7 yaks, a couple canoes and a raft out in the garage.  I guess I just need more guitars.

I have 2 mandolin's. If they're counted, that makes 10 stringed instruments for me as well.

3 acoustics, 1 solid body electric, 2 solid body electric basses, a fiddle, and an autoharp. 

If you count the guitars I have 'loaned' to people never expecting them to be returned, add 3 more acoustics.  My usual rule on loans is that they can keep the guitar for as long as they continue to practice or play, but if they decide at some point to give it up then I want the guitar back to pass on to someone else.

Also, two canoes, a raft, and six kayaks.

what? and get rid of a guitar

Two acoustics 1 Stratocastor and 1 Espana 335 copy. Air guitars not included,

Since we're including other hobby gear collections, better insert the fishing rods. That would be 5 fly rods, 6 spinning rods, and 2 baitcasters, all in various weights or lengths for various species, conditions, etc. ... or so I tell my dear wife! The 3 kayaks are for when I'm guiding clients for smallmouth bass or trout fishing.

Roughly 30 fishing rods split amond fly, spinning, baitcaster, and surf rods. A lot of them were bought to have rods to teach children.

6 bows, aching for more, but will wait until I know how to use my two first. The other four are for family and friends to use.

I'm still building my collection of fishing tackle and hunting items. There are 7 boats in my yard or under a shed at this time. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 different rods n reels (mostly bass, crappie or catfish), hunting bows, crossbows, arrows and enough guns and ammo to start a sporting goods store. I stay "cocked n locked". 4 mounted deer heads, one mounted elk head, 1 mounted stripper, 4 mounted bass. 2 mounted turkey tails and several turkey beards all hanging on my living room wall + a 10 point buck in the freezer waiting to be mounted. All this "stuff" was acquired when I was a rich man and able to tell my wife that buying  all this stuff was an investment. Now that I'm retired I don't wanna sell anything.
