    I have added three Les Pauls and a Mandocello since this picture has been taken.

        6-10 for me. I tend to go for a particular sound and guitars that can get many tones, rather that look for lots of different-sounding guitars.

            I go for different looking guitars. They all sound the same.

              You do know you can do both.

                The goal is for all your Caddies to sound the same just look different? So you are choosing pickups to minimize the differences? Interesting.
                Oh no.....


                Oh Yeah!

                  I'm at 14 and a project one. Unloading one this weekend, if the buyer doesn't back out.

                    You know, I’d like to see a “play it on the wrong guitar” series.

                    Chicken Pickin on a Les Paul
                    Creamy British Blues licks on a Strat
                    SRV on a double locking HSH
                    Motley Crue on a (traditional) Tele

                    I know the point of gear pages is to fuel the GAS but I’m really wondering how many one (and that means me) needs?

                    -Acoustic
                    -P/J Bass
                    -60’s Strat
                    -Super Strat
                    -Tele
                    -Les Paul

                    Is that it?
                    Oh no.....


                    Oh Yeah!

                      I'm at 12 with 1 project, and longcat has another 7.
                      Gibsons (4): SG Standard, Explorer, Les Paul Standard, ES-335
                      Charvel (3): Model 4, Model 2 (project), Model 1A
                      Guild (2): DV-6, G212
                      Fender Tele, Yamaha Pacifica 12, & Spector Rebop bass

                      Between those and a few I borrow from longcat, we have the basses () pretty well covered in terms of different sounds. If I add another it'll be a second SG as a backup for gigs.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

                        I think I've mentioned this before, but I have a friend in LA who decorated his house getting a Korean company to knockoff basically every classic guitar for him. at like 100-200 a pop. I think the guitars are built in China or Malaysia though

                        They look close enough for the art aspect -most play like **** but most have never been set up at all -they are just paintings basically

                        he has over a hundred of them wall to wall in his house. looks super cool. Sprinkled in are his couple of legit 60s Strats and LPs.

                        He looked at like -instead of buying art and framing things -he spent less than 20k to decorate his entire house (guitar plus Hercules hangers) in the art he really cares about.

                        He did this around 2008 to 2014 BTW

                          I'm at 8, 1 acoustic, 6 electrics (3 of which are works in progress that I haven't gotten around to finishing), and 1 bass guitar.

                            Including basses, up to 28. I have quite a few on the chopping block, but most of them need some work, new pots/switches/etc, and I've been too lazy to do the work. If I ever get around to it, that would drop me down to aroung 15ish.

                              I'm down to about a dozen, plus a handful of essentially complete, but still in "project" status guitars

                                Just four. Three electrics (tuned to E standard, E flat, and D standard), one acoustic. No basses, which is a serious deficit for me. Hopefully, in the next few years, I'll get at least one more electric and a bass.
