The way I see it you have room for one more acoustic and three more electrics laying in the opposite direction.

LOL. Can you help me lug around the guitar cases for the next family photo? 10 is already a lot of work.

Minutes after I took this, it started raining!

I was going to list them, but you might prefer to ID them yourselves!

Doh! I decided that the first version looked rather dull, so I edited it a bit and reloaded it, now I can't get rid of the darker one! I've 2only" got the one collection, honest!

So, if you are like me and can't see a guitar without trying to ID it - have a go!

Andy, that is extremely impressive. A very fine collection Sir.

This is my meager stable.

LOL well, I do know what I like. I have tried many many times different size's and body styles over the years but I just don't care for them. So, it's dreads for this old fart.

They’re blocking the TV!

Seriously though, lovely collection. What’s the maple one?

LOL, that TV has not been turned on since the super bowl.

That is a late 70s or early 80s Hohner HG-340

Just took this Acoustic Family Photo this morning. I had to use pillows and my wubbie in case things got rough.

My Martin trio.

As long as we're showing our fams, here's my small bunch.

The three in front get played a LOT. They're my 000-28EC, American Original 50s Strat, and CEO-7. The two Martins get close to equal play, the CEO-7 maybe a bit more. They're both better guitars than I can fully take advantage of, but I love 'em and play them both a lot. And I've been a strat guy since 1979, so when I want to play electric, it's the strat easily 95% of the time.

The two hanging up get played very rarely. The Epiphone SG only gets played when I've just GOTTA have some P90 growl. It doesn't happen a lot, but when it does, there's only one thing that'll do, so I keep it around for those moments, rare as they are. Not crazy about the neck, but otherwise its an incredible guitar for the $400 it cost me. And my Emerald X7. I used to have an X7 and it was my only acoustic and I really loved it. But since the two Martins joined the team, the X7 just doesn't quite measure up, so it gets used for travel and for those rare days when the humidity is either ridiculously high or low and I just don't want to pull either Martin out. But that doesn't happen a lot, so it doesn't get played very much. I'm glad to have it and I like it plenty, but it's not in the same class with it's wooden brothers, to my ears at least, and they're the ones that matter when I'm the one playing.

This is the most I have any desire to own. I'll likely downsize to 3 or 4 at some point. But these all have their place now, and no need to offload any, so this'll probably do it.
