"Tonight on Hoarders, we tackle a house who's owner has a bad case of collecting guitars. He hasn't seen the floors or walls in his house in 25 years. We don't take "no not that one!" for an answer. Tune in at 8PM, only on A&E"

Lmao. I have been thinking such after seeing some of the above pics. If it’s all guitars hiding the floor, that’s not a problem. If it’s other junk, that’s a problem. lol.
 
I just got rid of a bunch this year. I’m down to 20. I just want what will fit in my rack and on my wall hangars. I have one open slot in my rack. That’s where the new Gibson is going in January.
 
I try to keep one hook/slot open for impulse buy newcomers (poo happens). Buuuuut, right now I am one over if I were to complete the two partscasters in the other room. Total, I have less than forty. My ideal arbitrary number would be less than twenty (or forty).:sneaky:

I started the year out with 40. Now down to about 15. I have a couple of Gibson’s to add. I talked myself out of a Bucket List guitar. I wanted, and found, a 78 Gretsch Atkins Super Axe but decided to leave it be. The Upper fret access is worse than on my Casino. Since I’m primarily a lead player, it just didn’t make sense. It needed a refret, but the built in effects all worked.

I am going to order a Gibson SG Special and a Les Paul Standard together in a few months. Those are the only guitars on my horizon.
 
I think I’m at around fifty or fifty three now,not gassing for anything else.I pretty much have everything I’ve wanted,some inexpensive some a bit fancier but most of the bases are covered at the moment.
 
I don’t know. I’m now down to 16, but will be having a few more coming next year. I will be adding three more, and then I think I will be good. I want to build a Brad Gillis replica next year as well. The three on my list will be a Squier CV Tele, a Gibson SG Special and a Gibson LP Standard.

I really thinned out the herd this year. I had 40 guitars at the beginning of the year.
 
I guess my limit is no more than I can maintain in playing condition throughout the year. Even though I keep them all in a humidified gear room with our changes in season and with it drastic changes in humidity I still need to do some tweaking in the fall and again in the spring.
