I own five guitars and I'm sure as I can be that I have enough for what I do, how many guitars is enough for you and do you think you can have too many. My wife thinks I have more than enough but you never know when you see that one guitar you must have.
Are you married to my wife too? Just because I'm in my 70's she wants me to sell all my stuff before I die. I may have given up gigging but not living or playing my acoustics(4), my basses(2), my keyboards(2) or my drums(2 Alesis kits). I do have to work hard not to buy anything else I like my meat and two vedge where they are
Hi Phil. I'm with you on that I could never sell any of my guitars would take them to the grave with me if I could just like Chuck Berry did. Did you attend the Guitar show up in Birmingham this last weekend ? I was there on Sunday and could of easily come home with at least half a dozen new guitars I felt like a kid in his favourite toy shop lol.
Colvon, I try to avoid music shops and trade shows as I always come out in a bad mood cos I cant have something or other! I walked into a shop in Swansea a few years back and a guitar caught my eye. I played it for a few minutes (half an hour apparently) and went back a few days later (after dreaming about it) and bought it, I was younger then! Same thing happened when on a day trip to Western Super Mare, got off the bus, saw a music shop saw a guitar played it, the wife said buy it if you want...so I did. But that was the end of my collecting. I even get my strings on line rather than go to a music shop in case I get itchy fingers!
Hey you guys crack me up.any chance of us hearing a bit of music from the two welsh guys?
how about a duo???
I had close to 50 at one time. Most were bought before the pandemic.
I`m down to 28 now. The values went up during the pandemic. I was able to sell the ones I did at a profit. Sometimes over 100%.
So I was able to get higher quality equipment a lot cheaper.
Last example. A Taylor 510 for $700 out of my pocket, It was on sale for $1200. I had the other $500 with the money selling guitars that cost me $700 total.
