For years I've been wondering at the twists and turns my life has been taking, buying guitars, being married to my wonderful wife of 41 years... but I just couldn't get a grip on where I was headed.

Now, thanks to this wonderful chart, I can see things perfectly! I need to buy more guitars! I gig regularly, I make money at it, I'm meeting new people (and playing with them tomorrow afternoon); my wife has mostly tennis shoes, but tons of socks and capris.

I'm not sure how many guitars I actually own at the moment, but there are 21 of them visible in various places in the Music Room right now and I just bought a new Modern Players Series Tele Plus (see my review in the Telecaster Forum), which I think is my 10th Tele.

I must print out this chart and post it in the Music Room - where my wife can see it! Maybe now I can discontinue my therapy sessions!

I think I'll just build my second one when money allows it and be happy with 2

My Trick worked once but probably not twice. I simply bought my wife a guitar, and now I play it. The negative thing is, now the cash I would have spent on new gear is going to pay for her guitar lessons. oh well.
----Danny,

Danny, Danny... You need to spend more time with a chart like the one above and think these things through better before you leap. You and I are both getting old, but there are still a few tricks you can learn if you try.

If you only have one or two guitars, there's no place to hide the next one you pick up. If you have a whole bunch, you just work the new ones into the mix slowly. I don't notice my wife's new clothes, she doesn't notice my new guitar... as long as it is not too outlandish. Hard to hide this one...



Or this one...



But I try!

Dennis: I actually bought the guitar for her. It's nice haveing her learning to play. And it's fun haveing a live in jam Partner. Now we shop together for guitars and gear for our 3 grand kids. Just today we bought the 5 1/2 year old granddaughter a Mini Strat and a VOX VT 20+ Amp. for Xmas. After she opens them I'll post a pick of her and the new stuff.
----Danny,

Uhhhh so confused.

* No wife.
* No kids
* Remember all my guitar's names

So, I should definitely buy more guitars, right?

But
* Mostly electrics
* Got Strat
* Got Tele
* Got Humbuckers
* Got P-90s
* Nice acoustic
* No guitars at buddies
* Just jam with mates

So, I definitely have too many.

My head is starting to hurt.

I KNOW!! I don't have a dreadnaught!!!!
Problem solved, buy more guitars.
Thanks all, I knew if I talked it out, it would become clear.

The solution is simple! Buy HER another guitar, since you'll end up playing it anyway. She'll be so happy, she'll never figure that out, will she?

The trouble with that is , the wife has already got me pegged. Now she's using MY tricks. She loves that Mini Strat and wont put it down. I might end up buying another one for the Granddaughter.
----Danny,

haha love it
