I own a few, but they're not worth a ton. All together, if you sold them you might buy one "reputable" axe.

Schecter Raiden-4 bass- my daily player and workhorse for my band (BluzDaddy)

Squier Affinity P-bass (given to my son, he beats on it)

Jay Turser Telecaster Copy (IMO better than the Squier because of the rosewood fretboard), this I will likely never sell, it's my writing/test horse guitar

Squier Stratocaster- my most hated guitar but my first, unlikely I'll ever sell it for the $50 it's worth.

Washburn WI-14 solid body modded out with a cost of way more than what it was ever worth (sold just this morning, so I guess it doesn't count)

Epiphone Les Paul guitar in flame top honey with a cream pickguard (given to my son, he loves it more than he loves me...I think)

Yamaha solid top acoustic.....I rarely play it, but my son loves to diddle with it in his room and it's his/mine travel guitar.


Soon I plan to upgrade to a nicer bass....

I have 13 Basses and 27 Guitars. They are all a little different and a wide price range, SX to Ibanez Prestige. I enjoy them all and wouldn't part with any of them. I like to tinker so most are or will be modified but a few will be left stock. Out of all those only a handful QC wise came good to go. Surprisingly 2 came from Rondo an SX Ursa2 Bass and an Agile AL3000M Both just needed tuning, they play and sound Great as is. Schecter Basses and Guitars QC is very good as well. Some of the other big name brands are very hit and miss regarding QC. Sorry for rambling.

The Point of a Journey is not to Arrive.

47 basses, all Fender except for 1 Ibanez and a Rickenbacker. Way more than I will ever need, but not near as many as I would like to own! It's a severe addiction I battle every day!

Jeebus Christ man!!!!! What the hell do you need with 47 basses???? Lol.

I currently own ONE Ibby SR400QM and ONE U.S. Fender Tele. That's it. Oh and a Yamaha keyboard and drum machine.

Most I owned was 3 guitars and one bass at some point. Can't imagine what owning 47 basses is like!!!

If money allowed, I'd probably own 3 basses (MIA Jazz, SR Premium or Prestige, a Spector) and 3 guitars (always wanted a PRS, would get another TELE (72 reissue with humbucker in neck), and an ES335), MAX.

I have 14 guitars (2 Kramer (Focus), 3 Fender (US Strats), 2 Gibson (RD Artist, Chet Atkins CEC), 6 Hamer (Chaparral, Firebird, Steve Stevens, Californian), 1 Charvel 750XL) and 5 basses (Fender US DLX J, Fender US DLX J fretless, Gibson Q-80, Gibson RD Artist, Hamer Chaparral Max). I use all basses in rotation, but of the guitars I use about 4 guitars, the others are seldom played...
