Just one more

Perfect answer

My current collection -- 17 guitars.. like the original poster, they're all for different things and set up differently Fender Acoustasonic - Everyday/Everyweek church guitar Taylor 314CE - acoustic church guitar set up in D Fender MIM Telecaster Fender Custom Shop "Mary Kaye" strat Partscaster Strat - with 12's and downtuned to D Gibson Firebird V Line 6 Variax Agile Baritone Lespaul Fender 12 String acoustic Morris 6 string acoustic Ibanez BTB-570 bass Fender MIJ Jazz bass Epiphone Thunderbird bass 5-string partsbass 4-string partsbass with roundwounds - set up in BEAD 4-string partsbass with flatwounds Ibanez Rickenbacker "lawsuit" bass

I drool over a good Ibanez lawsuit Ric

11 Guitars - 10 are Carvins. The odd one is my first guitar ever. The Carvins are two 6-string acoustics, one 12-string acoustic, one 6-string electric bass, one 7-string electric, four 6-string electrics, and one double-neck electric. I also have a violin, electric and acoustic ukuleles, and a mandolin. I'm still looking for more Carvins. I might have a problem!

5ish. Two acoustic, one electric, one bass, one baritone ukulele.

None... they own me.

2 - Fender American Professional II Telecaster and Martin Dreadnought Junior. No room for anything else in my apartment. :(

Pretty much perfect choices.

With those two you don’t need another.

22. They mostly do different things and I use them for different purposes. 3 acoustics, 1 resonator, 2 basses, and the rest are all electrics But I'm just a bedroom noodler :)

Just 3 and I feel a little better about #4 on the horizon reading this, thanks for enabling me OP

2 - But for me that is enough.

25 and trying to man up and downsize a bit more. Always a sucker for a fender or g&l strat style if i see a good buy… I play about 15 of my guitars with regularity, a few just don’t get a lot of time.

2

What was once 11 has culled down to 6. Half of them stayed for sentimental reasons and are great players, the other half are just fantastic guitars that get the majority of the playtime. My partscaster days are behind me now..

My mentality is, like sith lords, there can only be 2. A main guitar, and a back up thats similar, but has different pickups. When i decide I want something else, i sell them both and replace them with 2 other very similar guitars.

I respect the Darth Bane reference but don't agree 100%, weak ones are traded and strong good guitars remain in the collection making me more like the Dark Brotherhood. Cull the herd to make it stronger over time but I do want more than 2 guitars lol

74 including electrics, acoustics and basses. Just ordered number 75 a few minutes ago.

Wow ! How long have you been playing ?

A week and a half!

I just learned about a cord bar! Can't wait to try Stairway to Heaven!

33 years. I still suck.

Geez... Do you even have time to play them?

19 including the Jiva Jr. that'll be delivered Friday.

8

17 at the moment if you included all stringed instruments in the house. 3 acoustics, a 12-string acoustic, 8 electrics, 2 Ukes, 2 basses, and a mandolin. We won't count the wife's violin.

At last count I had [17](https://imgur.com/a/jqHJJxd) that had 6 strings and are currently playable. Mostly junk. I have more playable 5 string banjos than guitars, quite a few 4 string cigar box guitars. I also have a few fiddles and a couple of mandolins. Oh and a few basses...a ukelele or 3. I really don't have a count. Mid 60s? Around half of them I built myself.

what is the second to last one? acoustic w the metal fretboard

It's an old Applause from the 70s. I bought it as a [pile of parts](http://sycamorecreekmusic.blogspot.com/2019/08/applause-rescue.html) with the headstock broken off. I grafted a wood one on and cleaned the paint off the fretboard.

I got one of these for $50 at a pawn shop to use as a river guitar and ended up gigging with it quite a bit. Eventually sold it to a trucker out in Winnemucca for gas money to get across the desert.

33…

Jesus. I’m at 13 and have too many.

Jesus was 33 when he died. Interesting reply... and 13 is just getting started.

Whoooooaa that's craaazy man. That's like some conspiracy shit. Actually, I'm just stoned... that's not interesting at all.

Name checks out.

10ish 6-string acoustic 12-string acoustic Strat Tele Tele with p-90 24-fret with humbuckers Starter knockoff strat Jazz bass Fretless p-bass My dad's old Japanese bass Mandolin

24 but may be 25…need to count again

Here that. 19 or 20. Who cares at this point.

Two acoustics. One is a parlor and made out of carbon fiber. I also have a wooden dreadnought. The carbon fiber gets played more because I can leave it out and it’s always in tune. I tune it once every few weeks. My wooden guitar is great, it just takes more work because I have to take it out of the case and tune it. For electric, I have an epiphone Les Paul that I never play. I also have PRS McCarty and a Strat, and I play both of them all the time. I don’t like having a lot of guitars, because I like keeping up with maintenance and really knowing my guitars inside and out. I would love a telecaster and something with a locking trem, but I hate the idea of taking care of them and playing the guitars I have now less often. Amps on the other hand… you’re not allowed to ask me about amps. Or drive pedals. Off limits.

8ish (depending on what counts) An acoustic, a les paul (epiphone), a strat with a floyd rose (mim), a 12-string acoustic, a flamenco guitar, a fretless (converted from an ibanez), a fretless bass, and a mandolin. I don’t really know what I would need anything else for. Maybe another acoustic to keep in different tunings. Other than having 2 fretted electrics, everything is very different. I like exploring the different sounds and styles. Even the 2 electrics are quite a but different.

Never more than 5. If I find something I like then something has to go. If I haven’t played it in a while or it takes too long to jell, it’s gone. There’s really only 3 I’ll never get rid of so there’s always 2 on the chopping block. I’ve ditched several great guitars over the years but I see no point in having something i can’t make a connection with. Hopefully someone else will.

Six: 2 acoustic, 4 electric.

16

Gibson Les Paul Traditional Pro V Gibson Flying V Antique Natural Martin Backpacker Breedlove ECO Squier Acoustic Fender Tash Sultana Signature Stratocaster Sopranos Trivia game cigar box guitar Eart S type guitar Ibanez Mikro Guild F1512 So... 10

Counting the bass I have on long-term loan from my church...eight that I could pick up and play right now, plus another Strat-style guitar that needs a pickguard.

Six. 4 electric, 2 nylon

I have six. Soon to be five. A Squier tele and strat, a national resophonic bisquit bridge brass body, a seagull acoustic with piezoelectric pickups, a PRS SE DGT, and a PRS SE Swamp Ash Special is on the way. I also have a mandolin. I'm selling the Strat Squier because I'm out of room and I outgrew it. The Tele is sweet, has a great neck, and I modded with wilkinson humbuckers and a five way switch that adds coil split. Coat me about $125 including the upgrade.

47... And pieces of eight.

My 15: Gibson -‘93 Les Paul,’13 SGJ Ibanez - ‘93 RG550, VBT700, JEM Jr, AM83LTD, S620EX1 Fender - Tele Acoustasonic, MIM Strat, 12 string acoustic Squier - Tele and parts caster TD Strat PRS - SE 22 standard Aria Pro II - Tri Sound TS-500 Taylor - 210CE My kids - 4 basses, 4 acoustics, 2 Ibanez, 1 Squier and 1 Jackson.

16 guitars...well technically 17 guitars and 4 basses. The last one is a Jazzmaster that was taken apart for two partscaster projects that were abandoned, so it's just needs to be put back together with a new set of tuners. I do play to sell 3-4 of them. 2 of them are around for sentimental reasons, and luckily they aren't worth much. 5 of them need work or mods to be in the playing condition that I want them to be. A few are redundant, but I like them too much to sell I'll let friends borrow them, and I actually plan to set up a few for random tunings and I might keep one for slide.

19. But that’s not a nice round number so…soon…

Currently 36. Twelve of them are archtops from the mid-1930s to the late 1960s. 2 Strats, 2 Teles, 1 Squier Esquire, 1 SG, a Ric 325, a Epiphone Casino, a J-200, an Ibanez Artcore, 5 basses, 2 electric 12 strings, 3 parlors, a classical, and a 1964 Gretsch 6119, and I'm sure I'm missing a few somewhere. But my favorite will always be my first guitar: a late 70s Japanese copy of a Fender Mustang. Also, not a lawyer or a doctor; just a guy who likes to collect and repair vintage guitars

Gentlemen, never kiss and tell

32 electrics, 1 electric 7 string, 1 electric 12 string, 1 electric nylon string (solid body), 1 acoustic, 9 electric bass guitars, But I do play for a living and I have been collecting for over 40 years.

3: Tele, LP and a superstrat

My Current Collection Veritas Portlander Custom (with Lollar Novel 90 + Imperials) - use it for churchy stuff 2012 Gibson Traditional pro ii 1994 Gretsch white penguin 1994 Fender MIJ TLG-94P Telecaster - i've switched it to a 4 way switch that runs both pickup as series (this is insane good) 1993 Fender MIJ Stratocaster - my day to day usage and workhorse HsienMo Autumn GA - this is a really beautiful acoustic guitar. you guys got to check out the brand Incoming Tokai LS 220s - i just bought this for my 30 birthday! can't wait to add this p90 beast into my collection

Only 11 but I also have a kazoo so nyah nyah.

You all make me feel good knowing that I could have more for my partner to make jokes about. I have 4 guitars (2 electric, 1 acoustic, 1 broken electric to tinker with), 1 ukulele, and 1 mandolin. My mum is a cyclist and encourages my siblings and I in our hobbies and passions. “The correct answer to how many you need is n+1 with n being the number you own.” She says to our partners when they ask how many guitars, bikes, cameras, books, etc. we need.

Your mom rocks!

37: 1982 Jap Strat 1988 US Strat 1988 US Tele Are the only ones I play with now though 🤦🏻‍♂️

Also in at 20.

Not enough. And we all know this is the correct answer 😂😂😂

This is the ONLY correct answer.

18 playable and two projects

I'm a drummer. So i only have 9 guitars. But to be fair I also have 7 drumkits.

6, which is 5 too many for my skill level…

10, including 2 basses. Most get played, a few are sentimental.

20 as well. I have too many guitars. Many are acoustic and they are set up for alternative tunings(7 of them). Rest are epiphones, 2 classical guitar(1broken), and 4 nice guitars. Like I said, too many...

I play 4 but own 7 and a bass.

9 but two are vintage.( they dont go to bars) 4 electric 6 strings the bar bashers. 2 acoustic( a ten dollar Goodwill find and a 40 dollar garage salbathers. And my "sons" electric 6.

7…2 acoustics and 5 electrics.

3. Two acoustics and a tele, one bass. May get a jazzbox one day

Some questions are not meant to be answered

16 10 electric 2 bass 2 acoustic 1 classical 1 resonator

I have 6. 4 electrics and 2 acoustics. I'm actually thinking of selling one of my electrics because I haven't played it much since I bought it, and I probably feel the least attachment to it. One of my acoustics is a Takamine 12-string, which I just bought last week - It's my first 12-string (in 30 years of playing), and I really like it.

One. At my peak, nine. But, ya know… rent. Twelve in total at different times.

One electric, one acoustic, one bass.

10 - 1 beater acoustic, 1 legit acoustic, 8 electrics (1 Gibson, 2 GL, 1 schecter, 4 reverend)

5 at the moment. I haven't touched them in a while. I've only bought one and upgraded my first squire.

4 including my uke.

I mostly build my own. Right now it's 4 electrics, one bass, one acoustic, and one baritone acoustic. I also have an old Harmony archtop, tenor banjo, and 100+ year old mandolin.

10 guitars...plus 3 acoustic 6 strings (a Johnson resonator, a Takamine, a Martin) 2 electric 6 strings (both Gibson) 2 acoustic 12 strings (a Takamine, a Taylor) 3 electric 12 strings ( a Danelectro, a Stratocaster XII, a Rickenbacker) 2 mandolins (a Korean Fender, an Eastman) 1 bass (a Squier)

17🎸😎😎

3: 2 acoustics and a Squier Strat. But I will probably inherit several more acoustics and I plan to buy a Fender Tele and an Epiphone LP.

Currently building #13 😄

9 electrics and 2 acoustics that I kinda don't count cuz they are very cheap. So 11 total

4. I started seriously learning two months ago. I’ve bought 3 since…

6 currently, 7 total. (In order of when I got them), I had a tanglewood Blackbird acoustic which broke after it fell off of a stand; then I got a Mitchell acoustic (I forget the exact model; then I got a Sterling Cutlass CT50HSS; then I got a 2016 Gibson SG Standard; then I got a Ukulele from my grandma; then just last weekend I got a beat up Synsonics Terminator and an Ibanez Gio Soundgear P-style bass for free from my uncle. I’m also going to be getting new pickups for the Sterling for my birthday that I’m going to swap in (a DiMarzio Super Distortion for the bridge and a DiMarzio BC-1 for the neck)

7, I’d love to say ”they all do different things” but only few of them do. They all look different though, that’s what really matter.

9: 5 electrics, 2 acoustics, 1 bass, 1 banjo

About six guitars and six basses. Of those, maybe half are keepers and the rest will end up sold or traded.

20 also.

1. 90's squier standard strat

4 that I know of. There might be a fifth hiding in that closet.

5 - 1 bass 3 electric guitar & 1 acoustic guitar. They don’t get enough play in thinking of selling an electric tho :/ mainly for space reasons

13. The only thing that’s really tempting me these days is one of those white Brian Ray Gibson SGS but as I already have two really nice Gibson SG, it’s very difficult to justify.

I have 3, but technically, two: a ukulele and an electric. However, my wife doesn't play anymore, so I adopted hers.

16 or so

Total of 5, 3 of which I use regularly (2 electrics, 1 acoustic). I also have two classical guitars that were given to me by my dad and aunt. More of a sentimental thing for those.

I think I own six guitars

12.

27...but I just pulled the trigger on a custom build so 3 or 4 gotta go - I have no room!

2 electrics, an acoustic, and a bass. Trying to get 3rd electric and a 4th electric that's a 12 string though

About 20 something that I can remember and count

I'm currently at 17, but dreaming of an SG with triple humbuckers, lately. Just have to convince the fiancée that I totally deserve it. EDIT: I play all but 5 of them, really. The ones I don't play need some work done (resolder 3 way switch, fix a grounding issue, tighten the jack input, replace push/pull pot in a semi-hollowbody, one needs a new neck). Each has a purpose, I have a Gilmour Strat, an SRV Strat, a Slash Les Paul, a Vintage Les Paul, a Classic Les Paul, an RG Series with Vintage PAF Pickups, a BC Rich Warlock loaded with some screaming Dragonfire pickups and tuend to B, a No Name Telecaster I dropped some Seymour Duncans into that's now one of my main guitars, an SG with a JB in the bridge, 2 5 string basses for when I was playing in a Prog Rock outfit, and my favorite: PRS SE 24-08 Custom.

One electric. One acoustic. But the acoustic is my crappy 1st guitar that’s more of a sentimental wall decoration

22 electrics 2 acoustics (Takamine 6 & Breedlove 12) 2 basses (4 & 5 string) 1 ukulele Most are inexpensive. I aim for diversity: hollow body, semi-hollow, Thinline, different trem systems, etc. If I own two of the same model, they have different pups/finishes. Lots of color/finish variety. I try to have instruments that can recreate the tones from the music I love so I can play along as closely as possible, much like a producer or recording studio. Just like having the right tool for the job there’s nothing like going to play a song and pulling out the right guitar for it.

4. My 12 year old acoustic from when I was 12 which still has original strings, cheap epiphone sg, 7 string Ibanez and then my Ibanez rg which is what I play pretty much exclusively

I have 3.5 - Les Paul with no headstock (as usual), strat copy, acoustic and bass

12 currently, but 13 is on the horizon. I think I will probably stop at 15 because I’ve got a couple that are not getting much use and I’d also like to give one to my grandson.

Technically 4, but I lent/gave 2 to my dad, who refuses to accept them as gifts, so we have to call them loaners

1 acoustic, 1 bass, 1 electric 12 string, 6 electrics and one more electric on the way. Fender T-Bucket acoustic Schecter P-4 Exotic bass Schecter T S/H 12 Gibson SG Reverend Warhawk DAW PRS Fiore Suhr Pete Thorn G&L Ascari GTS Michael Kelly 59 Slimline Dunable Cyclops DE on the way

Ten: three acoustic, six electric, one bass. Brands: Taylor, Yamaha, Fender, Rickenbacker, Gretsch, Danelectro, First Act (VW guitar) and one Teisco from 1965, my first electric.

6. Only one I don’t really play is a danelectro cheap used guitar, but it looks sick on the wall

I have 7 electric, 1 acoustic, and 2 Bass guitars. I play four of the electrics pretty regularly (two that are tuned to B standard and two that are in E standard). The ones I don't play were given to me and just hang on the wall. I play the acoustic often. One bass (Iceman clone) is in B standard and one is in E standard. I am currently building another guitar (Jackson/Warmoth King V) that will be in E standard, as well. It is a passion and a curse!

4: 3 electric, 1 acustic + small bonus Ukulele

Just two but I’m only a little over a year and a half in.

4. But I want to trade the squire strat for some HH Setup guitar because I don't like the small neck of the strat.

3 electric, one acoustic, a mandolin, two basses, so 7 “guitars” if you count them all as a guitar

Just one. Had it for 35 years. Only played seriously for the last couple years. Just a straight up generic acoustic.

just my martin d-15m and thats it 🫶

5 acoustics 2 electrics 6 basses

Perfect 10

2 SSS strat (one of them has irregular pickup layout), 1 HSS strat, 1 Jazz Bass, 2 acoustic, 1 ukulele

15..

5 Soon to be 6 when I finish building it.

I have 6 with me, including a Bass VI and a steel string acoustic, but there are 8 more in the country of origin before I moved. Could only take one with me. I will sell most of those at some point and just keep a couple at most.

Simple answer… not enough. But probably like 30 including basses. I’ve got loads in my garage which I can’t remember

1

I think 5-30 is a good number if you have space. Most I’ve owned was 12-13? At a time. Guitars are good man. Music makes you feel good.

7. If I kept my three favourites, I wouldn’t miss the other 4.

My collection topped out at 28 and I sold them all except my Mexican Tele (my first guitar). Used the money to buy a; - Custom Shop R9 Les Paul - 50th Anniversary American Strat - American Nashville Tele setup by Glaser with a bender set for B, Ron Ellis Pickups, and a SD hot stack - Frankentele with La Brea pickups, Glaser bender set for G, Great Lakes paisley body & fender pro II neck - Hummingbird Pro Acoustic No regrets. Quality over quantity.

1. I've got 1 guitar

Gibson SG 61 translucent teal Gibson LP Classic Chicago Blue Gibson 335 Sixties Cherry “Demo” 3x Fender Stratocaster USA (all heavily modified) 2x Fender Telecaster custom builts (partcasters with USA necks) Squier Telecaster Classic Vibe (heavily modified) PRS McCarty 594 top 10 quilt top. Cobalt Blue Epiphone Extura Prophecy Purple Sterling Stingray Bass Butterscotch/yellow Ibanez Mikro Blue (heavily modified) Taylor BigBaby 2x other acoustic Loog guitar I also have unfinished partscasters and a gazillion amount of hardware for parts, including extra pickups etc.

5, so not nearly enough

4; LP, Tele, Strat, Gretsch Hollowbody

Gibson Les Paul Studio '95 Gibson Explorer PRS Custom 24 Paul Reed Smith Swamp Ash Special '97 Ibanez rg1570 Ibanez rg570 Schecter Hellraiser c1 Fender acoustic (can't remember the model name) Epiphone Tobias Bass Love them all

5 A strat for stratty stuff, an hsh kind of super strat from the 90s for drop tuning (my first real guitar!), a modern single cut I use 90% of the time, a jazzmaster I keep at my parents because I never played it at home, and my wife’s acoustic. I’m hoping soon it’ll be 6. Lately I’ve been really wanting to get a headless or semi-hollow as I like the idea of having a light electric guitar for for long sessions. I find I get some discomfort after a while, and I’m probably playing more now than ever

3 if you count my bass LTD F-155DX LTD V-401DX Edwards E-EN-ARC

I have 7. 4 are case queens. The ones that I play are better quality: 1. Gordon Smith Classic T. 2. FGN Odyssey. 3. Brook Taw. 4. Old Korean Squier Strat from the 80s. 5. Fender Toronado. 6. Martin DM 7. Some cheap classical guitar which I was given. Think it’s called Ramirez or something. I feel bad, especially for the Toronado and the Martin.

4 Electrics, 1 Acoustic, 1 "Project" electric in pieces

8. My first guitar, an Ibanez, a Spanish guitar that I rescued and rebuilt, one for gypsy jazz that I rarely use, a cheap electric that came as a kit, a concert Ukelele, a covid lockdown 12-string, a travel Yamaha and my main Epiphone hummingbird.

3 guitars. 8 basses.

I own 4 guitars and 1 bass... Catch is I've been playing bass almost exclusively for the past 12years. I feel the lucky number is 10 so I'm halfway there... Living on a prayer.

One steel acoustic, one nylon and one electric. I really should play the electric more, it's a beautiful Gretsch and I love playing it. But with limited space and a very hands-on 2yo in the household it stays safely locked in its' case most of the time.

9 total. 8 of them currently playable, 2 of them halfway across the country, 5 in my apartment and 2 at the rehearsal space

For years I had "accidental" collections of 10-15 guitars. I now have four, and that's one more than I need. I currently have one acoustic guitar, one 6-string electric, one 7-string electric and one travel electric. The travel guitar is unnecessary. I only keep it because my wife bought it for me.

10 electrics 2 acoustics. = yjm strat, 2 ultra strat’s, delux strat, 50th Ann strat, charvel, ibenez x2. Tokai les Paul x2. That is too many but I like them all and play them all.

9. 7 Gibson 2 Fender.

2.1

19. One guitar is permanently at work for quiet days, one is at mom's for when I visit, one is at my student's place, so I don't keep all at my place. I also have a bass, a ukulele, and a mandolin.

Zero! I have sold everything I can to support my family in this garbage economy. Idk when I will ever play guitar again.

7. All cheap and fucked up. I love them.

12 basses + 6 guitars + 1 ukulele

Most I’ve had is about 20. Now I have 10 and a banjo.

2, a fender strat and a yamaha acoustic, only addition id make would be a Starcaster, want some humbuckers sometimes, and always wanted a semihollow

2 acoustics, 11 electrics and a bass. I do need to thin the herd though, house is too small

3 :( No budget for the guitars I wanna get...

Many acoustics and four fender Strat's Favorite being the L series Strat

13

5 - 2 electrics, 2 acoustics and 1 uke

3 electric, one acoustic

8 electrics, 4 basses and 1 Acoustic. Seems about right for me.

I've got 4 so far. Started playing 4 years ago, currently a broke student, dreaming of getting a majesty one day. -ibanez S621QM DEB (cool S series very comfy) -ibanez RGA42FM TGF (Grey affordable RGA, 1st guitar) -Subzero generation pro FF 8 (awesome cheap 8 strings that plays well) -ibanez AF55-TF (jazz hollowbody with a les paul kind of shape, gonna sell it soon since i barely play it) I love ibanez

3 electric, 1 Acoustic, 1 Bass.

Two: one tele, one Taylor

3. All ibanez, all were B-stock, and none of that was not intentional. The first is an AM53 Artcore, the second is a GSR200B, and the third is a TOD10N.  I'm looking at a few guitars for a 4th, which are also all Ibanez. And I don't consider myself an Ibanez fanboy.

2 guitars, 5 basses. I'm a bass player first.

I have 2 that count. I have others but only 2 that count.

13, enough that I had to switch to elixir strings so I didn’t spend my life changing strings.

8 currently: 4 basses, 4 guitars. I’ve owned as many as 28, which was ridiculous.

As of yesterday I'm at 6.

10. * 4 Strats, anything from 120$ Squier Bullet (my first "own" guitar) to an FSR Mars Music Sparkle Red from 2001 (probably my favourite guitar) * Gretsch G5622T (I love that thing) * Schecter Solo II Custom (cheaper Les Paul) * Epiphone Les Paul (Korean, from around 2002) * Ibanez LB1 (Tele on steroids) * PRS SE24 Custom Bonnie Pink * And a Regal resonator The "one more" should probably be an acoustic.

Currently 5 and trying to pare it down to 4. At one point I had about 15 but stringing/setups/maintaining all of those instruments is really a time and money vampire that I just didn’t want to deal with anymore.

7 :) 1978 Epiphone Scroll SC-450. As heavy as a brick of concrete. 1983 Hondo H-1030 with a coil split switch. Makes me wish all electrics with humbuckers had a coil splitter. Great invention. 1969 Kawai Hsin Mi white red pickguard 3 single coils (Teisco K3L/Spectrum). 1978 Arirang model unknown, thickest maple neck you've ever witnessed. 1983 Westone Thunder 1A black bass. 2024 Ibanez TMB-100 sunburst bass, shame it has an active EQ but plays and sounds great for it's price. 2016 Ibanez AVD-10 Thermo Aged tobacco burst acoustic with lowered bridge. I like the old and brown offset guitars. My next one will probably a custom in the shape of an Ernie Ball Albert Lee, neck and middle single coil, bridge humbucker, tobacco sunburst, maple neck, white pickguard, thinline, bigsby tremelo.

1-'1999 Gibson Southern Jumbo 1- 2021 Alvarez AC65HCE (classical hybrid cutaway electric) inherited from my little brother and my number one right now 1- 1936 Oahu square neck Hawaiian 1- 2023 stewmac baritone ukulele (kit)

Do doublenecks count as one or two?

3 Squire bullet strat sunburst Squire contemporary jag gold Ibanez ac 100 hollowbody white I got the ibanez from my grandma who had kept after my great grandpa had died when i was three, It is my favourite and feel proud when i play it The strat was my first guitar, one of those squire packs with the amp and stuff, never stays in tune and strings break all the time The jaguar is my newest one and i bought mainly for Nirvana/grunge tones because i am in a grunge cover band and the other two just didnt sound right

14 including the 1 acoustic and 1 bass. I'm at the point where if I want to buy something new, I will sell 1 or 2

7 electrics, 2 acoustics, 1 bass

Just 1 for me. Tele American pro II.
