Am I the Only One Addicted to Buying Guitars?[views:4541][posts:34]______________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 5:39pm - ArrowHeadNLI ""] Seriously, In 2 years I've acquired 13 new axes. Is this excessive? er... 14, I just bought another one today. |
| ________________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 5:48pm - AndrewBastard ""] I had 7 axes and 3 basses at one point but now i'm down to 4 and 1 respectively acoustic guitar not included. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 5:58pm - ArrowHeadNLI ""] What made you cut back to 4? That's the weird thing, with the exception of 1 I play ALL of them. |
| ________________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:00pm - AndrewBastard ""] Sold for drugzzzz |
| _________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:07pm - martins ""] No, I just don't do it often. Already planning on a custom Parker Dragonfly, a Blackmachine, and a Blackdroid. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:08pm - arilliusbm ""] Are you the only one willing to sell or trade me a guitar at a discounted price? |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:11pm - arilliusbm ""] Must be nice to throw money around. I've got 5 guitars, but none of them are over $700. |

| ____________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:15pm - arilliusbm ""] $5000? Christ, what you got? I really want to save money to buy a Martin acoustic. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:19pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] damn i didnt even want to drop $75 to set up the guitar i have. must me nice to throw cash around on instruments |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:21pm - arilliusbm ""] Lefty? I have 0 experience playing lefties but I'm ambidextrous so I'm interested in trying it. I do more things left handed but play righty |
| ______________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:24pm - Lamp ""] I got my first guitar as a Christmas gift in 9th grade. On my birthday the following year, I got an SG Faded Special with a hard case for about $700 of birthday money and savings. Haven't felt the need to get a new guitar since and that was almost 7 years ago. |

| ____________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:26pm - arilliusbm ""] Arrowhead is loaded. |

Haven't felt the need to get a new guitar since and that was almost 7 years ago. If my math is right, I went longer than you've been alive with just one guitar. Now, in two years I went from 1 to well over a dozen. |

| ______________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:28pm - Lamp ""] I turn 23 in April if that helps any... |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:29pm - ArrowHeadNLI ""] Lamp said:I turn 23 in April if that helps any... Sounds about right. One GOOD guitar really is all you need. But as I'm finding now more is merrier! |
| ______________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:31pm - Lamp ""] I've been giving thought to selling my first guitar lately, but I haven't played it in so long. I'd have to restring it and see if I still like it after playing. |
| _________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 6:37pm - martins ""] I went 7 years with one guitar before I bought the Douglas. Had that for a year but barely used it. Then I got a Parker weeee |
| ______________________________ [Jan 20,2010 9:12pm - blue ""] I was starting to build up to 8, but now I've wittled it down to 4 (for the time being, new bass is on the list), I've been trying to make all my axes high end so I don't have the need to buy so many. That way I can focus on amps har har |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 11:22pm - DJ DEATH ""] Yes. But, im done now. Les Paul Special, Les Paul Studio, and a 73 Les Paul Custom. 14 guitars probably means you havent found your sound yet? Thats crazy! |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 11:22pm - DJ DEATH ""] the special has p90's. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 20,2010 11:33pm - xanonymousx ""] i have five, but one is in Florida, and another i found in the dorm and it just sits there. i spent probably $1100 with $700 being the total of what i put into my C1+ i've been looking into a new guitar too but im not too sure probably an SG or a ESP niccoli had a shit ton at one point if i remember all ESP/LTDs |
| _________________________________________ [Jan 21,2010 8:56am - metal_church101 ""] Had 7 electric guitars. Now down to 6, with a POS 5 string bass on the way for some budget home recordings of ideas that I have. |

The ONE time I've paid for a setup, it was only $45, and I only did it because that particular guitar just was not cooperating with me at the time. Normally, I do all my own work. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 21,2010 11:19am - brian_dc ""] I would like this, next [img] |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 21,2010 3:44pm - i_am_not_me ""] Ooooh, that's tasty. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 21,2010 3:51pm - i_am_not_me ""] But yeah. If I didn't spend all my money on video games it'd totally all go to guitars. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 21,2010 4:44pm - Spaldino ""] i want so many basses but i am so broke. if i had money again like i did a year ago... i would be buying a bass every week or so. |

My guitar style is pretty well formed, since I've been playing for over 20 years now, but my chops have been growing lately like crazy since I ditched singing and concentrated on guitars. As I got more technical, I needed a longer scale 24 fret guitar. Now I can't stop! The other thing is that I use a lot of different PuP combos, tunings, etc... so having a guitar in C, E, Dropped D, and E flat (for example) comes in really handy in my studio. Plus, they look puuuuurdy on my walls. I have one guitar that looks so cool, but I've literally played it once and swore never again. Junk, but pretty junk. |
