I have a beautiful Custom Shop Strat, a Les Paul, a Guild and Martin acoustic. Four guitars is enough for any man, right? Wrong, of course, especially if one of them isn't a Tele. But my wife doesn't understand. I don't even try to explain it. It's like trying to explain what love is to someone who's never felt it. I'm in love with a Tele I haven't even played yet, and one day I'm gonna make it mine.

It's like that with my Mom. I don't think I'm going to be able to get any more guitars until I'm out of the house, unless I pay for it myself. On the plus side, now that I can't get any more guitars I can focus on modifying the ones I have. :)

When I get asked how many do you want? My response is always "Just one more..."

Just tell them you arn't gonna get any more and then buy it anyway. Then you just say you have always had that one sitting in the back room. "How could you not have seen it?" That will show her

I got lucky. If it were up to my wife we would buy every guitar I picked up. Of the eight guitars I own, I have only bought two of them. The rest were gifts.

I don't know why many don't understand, but as soon as I find a woman that doesn't question or find it strange that I have 17 guitars, I'll probably marry her :lol:

Hey mvines,
You have a very nice stable already. To go beyond just sit down and ask your marital unit about her hobbies, desires and "stuff" that might blow her skirt up. (Important part here) Show interest, ask questions, help her devise a plan to feed HER GAS. After that brother you are home-free.
Hope this helps!

I sure have. I've also heard "they all sound the same to me".
