Enmitygauged Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Got my first guitar in about 2002. Then my Les Paul Studio in 2008 and my Martin in 2009. Didn't buy any in 2010, but built one in 2011....Haven't sold any yet. About one a year since 2005. Although some years Ive bought 2 or 3 and traded others in for a better one. in 2008 I bought an Alverez it died so I returned it for a cole clarke then got a taylor from the US that was a POS fixed it and sold it on. So out of three I ended up with 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shnate McDuanus Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Almost never. I haven't brought a new guitar into the home since 2007 or so. I'm wanting a new 7-string, though. I want it for doodly-doos and chugga-chuggas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookieman15061 Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 It depends if the GAS becomes too much or the guitar is on my must have list. This year so far I've bought 2 guitars and an amp but I also sold 3 guitars. I'm really at the point where if I haven't had the urge to play it in over a year then it's gone.

saturn Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Not very often for me. Especially a truly "new" guitar. The last one of those for me was either my SG Classic or Ibanez acoustic back in 2006. Although I recently did just pick up a used Jasmine by Takamine acoustic bass. That will more than likely be it for awhile, unless I see a really good deal on an Epi Dot somewhere.

Silenced Fred Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 not often enough. My next purchase is going to be a mid line Martin acoustic. Then a Jazzmaster. Should be able to swing that early next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artie Owl Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Where we're living now if I buy another guitar I won't have any room left to play it. Makes for great motivation to get a house, it's simple math really; X = Y, Y = Z, therefore X = Z house = more room, more room = more guitars, therefore house = more guitars.

Guest farnsbarns Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 8 in 20 years, parted with 2 so 6 in 20 years. One is an unplayable project that I bought for its pickup about 10 years ago and haven't touched so if I don't count that then 5 in 20 years = 1 every 4 years. Then I could count the banjo, the antique (litteraly) mandolin and various CBGs I've built. That'd make it about 1 every 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I get a new one every 6 months... the wife is starting to give me "the look" every time she finds me googling guitars even tho I don't keep any of them in the house and I actually make a living out of them (well, not all of them, most don't get used much).

ne14t? Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Not being in a serious relationship I get the benefit of the doubt the only person I have to convince to let me buy a new guitar is my pocketbook! I have just started purchasing what I like to refer to as "REAL" guitars and no more of these $99 specials, but I plan on trying to get 1-2 guitars per year I dont really want to go overboard but there is a nice selection of guitars I would enjoy in my collection.

Jeff-7 Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 About one a year, last one I bought was a '64 LG1 that's currently at the luthier. I'm in the process of hunting down an AC30, maybe a new guitar after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retrosurfer1959 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I Have been known to move 8-10 a year in the past with about an equal number in and out, but it's getting a lot rarer now with a large collection now there's not really much I want. I have a National on order and that will be the first guitar in 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidl Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 The last 2 years have been banner years. I've bought 5 new axes. The newest this Tuesday. Lp robot, R0, ES-339, Guild 12 string and the new one, a Taylor acoustic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
