Re: It's that time again. How many guitars do you own now?

I think I am at 20 or so, its Seymour's fault, too many pickup models!

Order of preference....

1. U.S. Jacksons (2 DK1s, 1 Soloist)
2. U.S. Parkers (1 original, 1 "refined" Mojo flame top, 1 5-string bass)
3. U.S. Strat Deluxe
4. Peavey V-Types (1 original signature model, 1 American Re-issue, 1 Korean import)
5. MIJ Charvels (2 Model A+, 2 Model As, 1 Traditional)
6. MIJ Jackson DK2S - got to have a Sustainiac in at least one guitar...
7. 2 U.S. Ovations
8. One of those Washburn blow-out model 7 strings
9. 1 Ibanez Korean 4 string bass - its a good beater

....oh yeah, and 1 U.S. Hamer Chaparral Elite from '89 - it sits in a glass case, my ex-wife destroyed the first one I had.....

Re: It's that time again. How many guitars do you own now?

Now that everyone has showed off their collections, I have a question to ask you guys. Do you actually play all of your guitars?? I've wondered if at some point I would have a lot of guitars and I wouldn't get the chance to play them all, and that would terribly suck. Gearjoneser, now that you've demonstrated that wicked arsenal, do you play all of your axes?? Just asking

I play all of them randomly, but the guitars I consider my 'main guitars' are
The LP Goldtop and honeyflame, blue and SB strats, teal black McCarty, and Martin D-28. I play everything or sell it if it doesn't get used.....as a matter of fact, I'll probably sell my Schecter Tele and G&L Legacy this year.
I'll need to make room for the Fender 52 Hot Rod Tele I want.

I'm signed with a production company doing music for cartoon pilots, so I write off my guitars as business expenses as well. Same with FX. If it gets used once, it's tax deductible!

Cartoon pilots? What kind of cartoons?

I mentioned one electric I'd like to get sold. It's on the block for the simple reason that I don't play it. My 12 string doesn't get nearly enough playing time. Otherwise, the rest get played, obviously some more than others.

However, sometimes I think I'll pick up a guitar because I feel guilty that I had neglected it. It's a nasty addiction... I've got more than I really need or know what to do with, but **** if I don't love guitars.

Re: It's that time again. How many guitars do you own now?

Honestly, after my bills, music gear is just about the only thing I spend my money on .

Seriously. My car was stuck in the middle of summer with a broken AC unit and a driver's side window that didn't roll down. Did I get either of those fixed? Hell no! I bought a Mesa/boogie Mark IV instead!

Serious, is anything more Rock-n-Roll then that statement?!

[mediumpimpin]

Re: It's that time again. How many guitars do you own now?

Just as my sig says: Epi lp custom with jb jazz set
Carvin dc135t (stock for now)
Agile al2800 with ZW set
Larivee lv03 acoustic electric
CIJ Fender strat 57 RI (in shipping)

I plan on buying a tele sometime in the near future and maybe another acoustic, but I do love my larivee a lot so I dunno.

Re: It's that time again. How many guitars do you own now?

Truthfully only my SG and alvarez acoustic are playable right now, but shortly my mim will be up and running with a crazy 8 bridge and I will have a tele project done. Those are going to be some good times, as I still got this feeling the tele is going to surpass all others.

Re: It's that time again. How many guitars do you own now?

My husband owns 20+. To be honest, he counts the bass, acoustic and slide guitar. My avatar is only a sample. I tell him he has enough, he says he doesn't.

love one woman, many guitars.

i only own three, one for sale. check sig.

Re: It's that time again. How many guitars do you own now?

I'm buying them so other people can't "relic" them........

[Ayrton]

Re: It's that time again. How many guitars do you own now?

Well if the wife ask, I have two....

However, if I did own more than two, the list would look strangely similar to this.

Fender Hwy 1 Strats (2)
Fender Strat Plus
Les Paul Standard
Ibanez Custom RG (2)
Ibanez Custom PGM (3)
Ibanez RG 750 (for sale)
Washburn N2

Re: It's that time again. How many guitars do you own now?

Yeah you're telling me Mike! I blame this place more than anything for my amp fetish. Before I came here, amps were an afterthought. But now they're almost the focus. Almost.

+1, the evil doers such as Strutdeluxer, The guy who inveted fire, Bludave, Kevlar3000, made an amp-whore out of me. I have to admit I waaay more into amps than guitars these days.

#1, Carmen - sunburst, maple neck/no fretboard 1999 Lone Star Strat with a invader in the bridge.

#2 my actual first guitar, Ginger - plywood oversees Kramer barreta with some duncan in it .... I forgot which one it was ... half black half orange

A Takamine acoustic - dont know what model it is but she is a keeper not great but perfect for writing and just practicing when pluging in is too much.

wow, I thought the 2-3 would lead ...
