Question How many guitars do you own?

Hi there. This poll is just for fun and also to get a rough sampling of guitar-ownership in AGF. Do include your CF and Electric guitars if you wish. The last time I did a similar poll was in December 2018.

Is your current number of guitars likely to remain the same? Or will it head northwards or southwards? Please feel free to share why?

Thank you for your votes and comments!

I currently have four acoustics but looking to reduce down to one this year. I simply dont have the time to play them anymore and could use the money/space for other ventures.

The only one I'll keep is the furch, it does everything brilliantly and is just a superb guitar. The thought of one guitar is strangely liberating!

I am presently down to 3 - a travel guitar, a full sized acoustic and a bass that I am trying to sell. I have downscaled and cut down the numbers a lot and I have given up playing anything else but acoustic. However I ultimately would like to have 2-3 acoustics in 2 different locations if possible

Three, but one, an inexpensive Harley Benton parlour, is more of an ornament. I have owned many in the past but fundamentally I have always been a one guitar sort of chap. If a really good Gibson AJ came my way the D-18 might have to go, but it would have to be an exceptional one-these '2012' D-18 models are superb.

5 right now, but only one steel-string acoustic (the others are 1 classical, 1 resonator and 2 electrics)

I've just realised I own 8 guitars....5 acoustic and 3 electric.
I have 3 six string Martins ,1six string Maton,1 Regal metal bodied resonator and an Art and Lutherie twelve string.
The electrics don't get used much so I want to sell 2 of them and buy another Martin and I want to trade up on the twelve string and resonator.
There's always room for one more !! [emoji6]

I have 5 I use
2 steel string acoustics (1 a carbon fiber emerald x7)
1 classical
1 resonator
1 electric

The emerald gets the most use, the electric only gets used when I need to be really quiet.

There are 5 other guitars in the house though, both the kids play, and my son plays bass as well

What's in my signature - and my "stable" is as stable as it's ever been. Don't foresee any changes.

There is no more because there is no need.

I own a bunch of electrics but one acoustic. I am to keep it to just one all-around great acoustic. However, the jury is still out whether it is the current one I own or another one. Still looking...

Default How many guitars do you own?

Come on Honey, you don’t think I’m really going to fall for this trick do you ? I have 1 guitar and it’s the same one you let me buy with my allowance money 19 years ago. Can I take you to Homegoods tonight and buy you another empty bird cage candle holder ?
Your loving Husband,
Kris
