Hi there, I'm new here. But I feel lucky to have 3 guitars and 3 basses.
Here they are:

Olympic White Maple Neck American Standard Fender Precision Bass 2008 (bought new in 2011)
Eko MM 300 (Italian Copy of the Music Man StingRay, too bad there's nothing left of Italian Craftsmanship)
Eko BA 01 E (Made in Italy Acoustic Bass from the 90's)
Eko Classical Guitar
Cort MR 100 F (Acoustic Guitar)
Yamaha RGX 121 SJ (Mist Purple) Electric Guitar

P.S: Pardon my English, I'm Italian :help:

Now that's what I call an arsenal :D
 
I have 3, but am always looking due to chronic GAS. I am amazed at the large collections of some of the members.

1966 Harmony acoustic - still in great shape after 46 years!
2003 Fender Mustang Bass with GHS P-Flats - good thumper
2011 Squier SE Strat - better than I expected for a "starter" git

Not sure what will be next. P-Bass, perhaps. Decisions, decisions.
 
Hmm...

Not many in this group, but a bunch for a drummer.

1.) Fender 60th Anniversary P-bass.

2.) Peavey Fury

3.) Schecter C-4 XXX

4.) Peavey Dyna

7.) Epiphone SG

8.) Epiphone acoustic/electric

I don't consider myself much of a guitarist, but I belong to three different bands which practice at my house. The guitarists don't have to bring anything with them if they don't want to. Also, when we host parties, (often) they usually are made up of our musician friends. It's nice to have a decent selection of instrument for whatever comes up. (This is the main reason that my guitars are generally modest instruments.)

Been playing since mid-September (5 months soon), and I got two. At this rate (one bass every 2.5 months) I guess I'll stock up just under 5 basses a year...50 in 10 years. Yeap, that would spell divorce.

Edit: 4 now. A P-Bass (a Yamaha RBX 260), a J-Bass (a BBG4), a P-J active (an Ibanez SR800) and an acoustic 5-string. Continuing with my previous post's extrapolation, I should acquire 3 more in the next 5 months. Any recommendations ? :rolleyes:
 
I currently own 10 electric guitars and basses.
Guitars:
Jackson RR5 V
Schecter Blackjack ATX C-1
Epiphone Explorer Black (highly customized)
Epiphone Explorer Korina
Epiphone G400 SG
Dean Vendetta 3.0 (Set neck version, not a cheapy)
Dean Jammer III (Strat copy. My first guitar, had it 21 years)

Basses:
Schecter Robert DeLeo Sig. Model T ('01 model)
Schecter Diamond J
Schecter Omen Extreme 4
