I figure as long as your not using money that could go to something more important , like the house, car, food retirement or savings or a million other things. buy(or hoard in some cases) all you want.

 

I have 4 guitars thats plenty for me.. I use to have several but

 

A) many were an impulse thing more than a need

B) nobody cared ! sure sometimes people would come over and say wow look at all those guitars

why do you have so many?than I would try to explain how valuable they might be later on blah blah blah.

some ended up being quite valuable but I had sold them by that time cause I got layed off from work and reality set in. and I was renting !

C) it can be an expensive hobby

now I am almost in a completely debtless position to buy what I want and will .

She's still alive, and I'm not in prison.

Worked out alot better than I thought it was going to.

No such thing as too many. If you can afford it, and it gives you pleasure, why not?

 

I'm at 17 now, 4 of which are Les Pauls.

Thinking about getting an Explorer, 335 and one of those new Charvel production models.

Too many is when you can't or don't play them all regularly (unless you have a 'collectors piece' which you won't touch). I guess 'regularly' is relative' date=' but you know what I mean.

This subject came up in conversation last night so I asked my wife how many she thought would be too guitars many for me.

 

Her reply was "I don't know, get as many as you want, what I want to know is when you are going to stop buying freakin' coffee mugs..."

 

and damned I did not have a come back for that....
