Are you a one-guitar person?

Over the past couple of years, I’ve been on a Craigslist trading spree. I think i have like 14 guitars at the moment. I really intended on selling some of them but I like them all.
 
I had to purge everything, so down to just one guitar. But I kept a good one at least. Custom Shop 61 RI Les Paul/SG.

What if you're a 1 type of guitar person?
Like you have a favorite model; you have multiple - but its the only type of guitar you have?

I'm not the only one that has a 'type.'

Still unsure about the new JP15, but I already know I don't like the heel joint. But that top is :chef.

I've been spoiled by the lack of..., well, anything in the way on the Majesties!

I can already see where this is heading.

Yeah. That's me and Wolfgangs. I even made them star in a stop motion AC/DC cover (you think I would've used SGs!)

Yeah that was really well done! The vid, and how you did the song. (I remember it from before, maybe at FAS...?)
 
I have one main guitar is use for every gig since 2005 (about 60 gigs a year).
It’s my warmoth telecaster.
I have a 50th anniversary 2004 strat that is my spare guitar.
I have one acoustic. Larrivee L05 bought in 2006

I just love my telecaster it’s like a second skin for me. An extension of my hands.

I have to mention that I’m left handed lol. So since I started guitar I couldn’t the same GAS as normal people.

Although I really want to buy a Les Paul. But I think I will not buy a Gibson cause for the price you can order a custom one from a luthier.
 
No way Ray! There's too many nice guitars to limit yourself to just 1. Even if it's one of each type; one electric + one acoustic + one nylon string.

I WAS a one-guitar person, for the longest time, mostly because of finances, but even when I could afford PRS, I generally stuck to/played the Custom 24, with a few outliers.

A bunch of years back, when I had extra money to aquire more guitars, I did, but as I write this, even with 15(?) electrics, I find myself playing my EC-1000T, 90% of the time, and if I have to just take one guitar, for a fly gig, that's what I bring.

My problems now are:

1. My Custom 24's have been gigged, heavily, so they aren't worth what they are worth to ME, and I won't be able to afford them again any time soon, so it's worth it, to me, to keep them, even though I don't play them much these days.

2. I bought a few as collector pieces, just some (sub-$1,000), oddballs that really aren't worth the hassle of selling them and getting less than I want.

Having to get my head around the concept of a worn PRS.🤣
 
I wish I was a one guitar guy 🙏when my daughter visits she says Dad you have a problem 🤣
I always try and keep it to around 80 guitars but after a recent round up it totalled 90 and after this new yellow Sire Larry Carlton P90 guitar arrived last week it’s hit 91 a all time high 😳
