UPDATE!!

I'm still radically reducing my senseless (to me!) collection.

Sold guitars are marked.
So I'm down to 8 plus the not pictured Precision bass.

The white Firebird will get modified (1 master volume next to bridge plus the two tone controls, just like a strat).
If it convinces me, it may stay.
As much as I like sound and playability of the Firebird, the controls are a PITA!
Too far away for quick changes during playing.

Two more candidates for sale, but I'm not sure yet!

The 2-tone sb Buddy Guy has a black pickguard now (kinda like SRV's #1).
It looks much better than the pictured vintage perloid.

I actually gave one away last week to a co-worker's little daughter who wanted to learn to play. Very inexpensive and wasn't getting played much. Free to a good home.

So I'm down to 11 guitars and a P-Bass . . . but I'm up to 21 pedals with the acquisition of a panning Tremolo!! I love stereo modulation!

I friend and collector friend of mine was recently asked how many was enough.... He replied 170+, which roughly translates to his collection ranging from Fender Squier Pro Tones up to PRS Private stock Dragons....

One. An '87 MIJ Strat in cream.

I reckon if I can't learn to play that one, then another 15 won't help...

Then again, I'm lefty. There aren't even 15 guitars in my whole state.

Currently four: a 1987 black American Standard, a sunburst '57 AVRI, a sunburst '56 AVRI (bought her a few weeks ago), and a Martin Dreadnaught acoustic. I'd like a 12-string eventually and a 15 series Martin, but I'm good on electrics. Too many would drive my OCD over the edge, ha ha.

Guys, there is therapy and medication available for this. Also, in many cases, a wife (and kids) will cure your ability to pile on.

I'm up to 9 electrics and 2 acoustics.

Electrics:

Fender Standard Strat
Fender American Standard HSS Strat
Fender American Select Mahogany Strat (Modded to HH with a Duncan 59 in the neck and JB in Bridge)
Fender Blacktop Strat (Modded with a Dimarzio PAF Pro in the neck and Super Distortion in Bridge)
Charvel So-Cal
Hamer Studio Mahogany
Gibson Les Paul Standard
Gibson SG Special Faded
Agile 3000 (Les Paul Copy modded with Gibson 490/498 Pickups)

Acoustic:

Breedlove and Ibanez Acoustic/Electrics (not sure what models they are)

GAS is a serious disease! I'm thinking of picking up a tele at some point soon too. I keep thinking of getting rid of a couple of them to get the numbers down but when I play them I don't want to. At least I only have a few amps...

I'm at 11 but they are all different in one way or another and my lineup changes every few weeks because of mods to exisiting ones or wheeling and dealing. Sometimes I loan them out to friends and purposely don't ask for them back because of various reasons. I want to get a Fender T Bucket in natural next and that cool 54 reissue Strat. It might be a while for the Strat though!

That's for sure! :lol:

I'm down to three:
1. Fender American Series Stratocaster HH
2. Gibson SG Standard
3. Schecter Ultra III.

And oddly enough, I'm not even GASing for anything at the moment.
