I don’t hide them from her. When I’ve bought a couple that were relatively more expensive than most, I’ve let her know I was going to and checked to make sure she didn’t have a problem with it. But my guitars live in the same home(s) she lives in, so I don’t hide them. That said, I don’t have a lot - 2-3 acoustics and one electric on each coast (we live in Oregon but spend winters in North Carolina, so I have gear in both places). They were far from cheap, but none cost me more than $4-5K and most were in the $2-3K range, so by AGF standards, probably around average cost.
At the end of the day, she’s far more important to me than they are, so I’d be more apt to lie to my guitars about the $$ I spend on my wife than to her about what I spend on the guitars…
