Thread Name: Justifying Multiple Guitars
Subject: RE: Justifying Multiple Guitars
Hmmmm, I understand this problem all too well! My instrument addiction is primarily acoustic guitar ... but if you came into my house you find 6 scoustic guitars, 2 electrics (my son's) a long neck banjo ... a set of drums (my daughter-in-law is awesome) ... two PA systems, various amplifiers, lots of electronics (mics, mixers, cables, etc) and some rcroding equipment. We have lost one living room, part of the dining room, most of my home office and one closet to the storage of this "stuff" - and the home has countless dings and 'bruises' in the paint and wall paper from continuously lugging this stuff in and out.

Not only that, I am chomping at the bit to buy; more PA speakers and amp - an acoustic baritone guitar (Santa Cruz makes a beauty), an Irish Bouzouki, and an electric). Thank God I can't afford to buy everything I want, (yet)!

And why do we get these unctrollable urges??? Hmm, I like to blame it a lack of breast feeding - but I am doing everything I can now to alleviate that short coming!
