Hi,

I know this has been asked before on basses but include any guitars you have in the herd too.

Thanks

And how might this metric be applied, you know, scientifically? Okay, skip the science. Still, one inference, given the thread data apparent right now, is that, higher numbers correlate with some aspect or other of guilt.

More than I need but less than I want.

6 basses, 2 electric guitars, and one acoustic guitar

Since I play both guitars and basses,collected many of them,I can't count so I'll post the pics of some of them:

 

[fourfinger]

3 electric basses...

And just one acoustic guitar (which I might not have thought about for another year without this thread).

1 bass... 1 being built.

Currently a ESP LTD B-206SM.

When my Carvin SB5000 is complete and in hand I will be selling the LTD, and turning it into some sweet new Triple Driver Alien Ears IEMs.

I can't imagine needing anything other than the SB5000. Except maybe a fretless SB5000

I used to have more gear, but we fell on some tough financial times awhile back.

Why hasn't Dr. Cheese chimed in yet?

Hey, I'm as bad as the rest here. It can get awkward to justify, though, yes? That rush from coveting, researching, hunting down, and finally bagging the latest gotta-have doesn't usually stick around too long. I always go back to my good old threesome (and maybe even that's too much?). And, when it comes to explaining the rest in the stable -- that's when it gets a little, errr, umm, difficult.

 

[carlthegroover]

At the moment I have 4 basses and no guitars. I got rid of a Les Paul Special II, an Epiphone SG and a Johnson acoustic. I still don't have the urge to play guitar at all.

As for the basses, I'm seriously considering to get rid of one of them. I have one Jazz bass with good enough tonal options, a five stringer and another four stringer for practice back in my home country. That should suffice.

However, I'd like to add an ukulele to the family in the near future. Then I'd like an affordable keyboard. I'd also like a cheap but reliable drum kit to start practicing. And then maybe a sax. And then perhaps a guitar that I actually keep. But the uke is definitely first.

I don't remember...too many. It is about 50/50 guitars and basses. Fun to have but upkeep sucks. I have 9 guitars out right now that I have to re-string this weekend.

Ball park total is around 60...my friends refer to it as the 401G

Then there is the Nord Electro 2, the Tama Starclassic, 4 amp rigs, 3 combo amps, a fiddle, a lapsteel, and a mandolin.

this pic is mostly my guitars, we ran out of room when taking this pic so a little more than half did not make it into the pic:

 

[whitespike]

Rickenbacker 4003S
60s reissue P bass

Guild D4 acoustic
Epiphone Sheraton II
