So it's come to my attention that I have a lot of guitars. I mean a LOT of guitars. I'm talking like it takes a sheet of paper and a pen for me to keep track of what all I've got. I think the total is up to 19, but I can't be sure. What I really want to know is: Am I alone in this? |

I was going to vote "I lost track" but it's all inventoried and accounted for. One day I when decided to take a picture of just my strats I realized there might be case made but it's not really a problem. I can stop any time I want to. Me? GAS? —There is Surf east of Sepulveda. |

Man, it looks like you must have at least $1000 invested in guitar stands alone (not counting the guitars themselves)! Daaaang!

Not necessarily. Some yes, but depending on the gear you're chasing you don't have to be rich. Theres a Yamaha SGV800 on Ebay right now that won't break the bank... G&L "strats" can be had for a bargain. I'm waiting on a metal flake gold one to arrive. Cost less than a used japanese jag/jm and is a true handmade in the USof A guitar of equal, or some like myself think better quality than a Fender. Yeah, you can't have GAS if you have to choose between shoes or food for your kid, but if you have any discretianary funds to play with, cut out beer for a month, learn to make mac'n cheese from scratch instead of buying the boxed stuff and there are plenty of fun "surf friendly" guitars to be had on the cheap! |

Ahhh, that's my thing too -- I haven't played much of anything other than my Mosrite live in probably two years, yet I still find the need to buy more guitars. I'm eyeing a sweptwing now, and always check ebay and all that for any Mosrite that might pop up which I could actually afford. ~B~ |
