I know we have had this poll before but Im interested to see how things have changed. Last time I voted I had 2 guitars. I now have 7 (and an 8th coming soon...

How has you guitar collection changed in the last year?

BluJu

I thought I had 6 until I actually counted. 9 was the number (if my bass counts as one)

Cort Earth Mini (acquired this year)
Squire Classic Vibes Tele (acquired this year)
Ibanez Gio bass (acquired this year)
Cort Classical (acquired this year)
SX Vintage Strat (acquired this year)

Fender Highway Strat
Ibanez Artist AR3000
Cort MR 710f
Yamaha 12 String

Time to start thinning down the herd.

Hi Brendon

How does this Guitar compare to the Baby Taylor, I am in desperate need of a travel guitar

I haven't made my yearly big guitar purchase yet and we are approaching November.
As it stands:
'65 335
'67 330
40th Ann 59RI LP
'62 RI SG
200x Hummingbird
Japanese strat
Squier classic vibe tele
70's epi Acoustic
Some POS Aria acoustic that goes out of tune if you look at it funny.
Did buy a load of pedals though, so may skip the guitar purchase, unless GAS wins.

the 65 335 was that the one you restored? (nice job by the way)
And the 67 330 pics? ?

Have you seen the 65 345 that was offered for sale?

Reinhard

Hi kapepper
The 65 is a reneck and the 67 was the one I restored.
Is the 65 345 still available? Details?

I would say that there is not much between them quality wise. The cort works really well as a travel guitar. Sound wise I think that the cort is just as good but I haven't put them head to head. It has a solid spruce top just like the Taylor.

Cut the herd from 20 to 11 and still cutting. Sick of paying thousands in insurance for the sake of having instead of actually using... Probably had around 30 come and go the past 2 years -there's no better way of forming an educated opinion of gear/guitars than actually living with them for a while...

Pretty Scary figures so far. The highest percentage are for those who have 10 or more guitars.
Still a long way to go ?

Indeed. What I find particularly fascinating as that only one person has voted that he owns only one guitar. Whoever you are, I tip my hat to you, sir. You have stood victorious over the onslaughts of this dread disease, GAS.

Norman86

Come on, you need at least 1 electric and 1 acoustic. More than that... thats when the bug has bit ?

dee

Seems I'm the only sad case with only one guitar ?

I need to sort that out ASAP...!

Ibanez RG470 (sold)
SX Les Paul (sold)
Epiphone special II (sold, total garbage guitar)

Left with.......

Ibanez ARX 300
Hamer Explorer
BC Rich Warlock

Only 40 out of the approx 4500 members responded to the poll..... ( which is not surprising). So I think if we had 10% respondents, we would have a more accurate picture.
