I've cut my collection down to four electrics, a bass and an acoustic. GAS is a dangerous thing.

I had taken a guitar in to sell to GC and thought nothing about it. I get a knock on my door a week later from a detective. He informed me that I was being investigated for trafficking stolen goods! WTF? Thank GOD I saved the original receipts from when I bought it. It turned out that the dude who entered the number into the system is dyslexic or whatever, he transposed some numbers and they matched up with a stolen guitar. Same make, same model just two digits were backwards. So, if you're into the selling/buying of instruments, keep your receipts. I stick everything in a shoebox and forget about it. Until it becomes necessary to clear you from a crime.

Hi Robert. Ten years ago I had around 165 guitars in my home; and 85+ amps. Just collected them over 30 years, or so. Thankfully my old age has cured my collecting. I'm down to around 30 guitars and maybe 15 amps. I keep and play only what I love.

I FINALLY got the 40th anniversary Jazzmaster. My wife finally agreed to let me get it. On sale for $300. I couldn't pass it up. You were 100% correct, it is amazing and inspiring.

I'm happy to hear that the 80s course is in the works. I remember you talking about it years ago. Can't wait to see what it's all about ( I love 80s rock/metal)

I don’t know why I’ve never done this before, but I started figuring the licks/riffs that you’re playing in this video. Some great stuff in here. Like a free lesson. Gracias

My Birth year is 59 so I could only afford a LP Re-issue. I even looked for a LP Custom from my HS graduation year 1977 but after a year of looking I found a 1980 Black Beauty, heavy is an understatement. I love the color of your PRS DGI model.

Don't feel bad, I just finished another build the other day, bringing my collection up to 93 guitars. Not to worry though, my ex-fiancée gave up on trying to change me 25 years ago - so no issues with the wife.

Never been big on having multiple of the "same" guitar. In the cases where i do, the pickup config is so different they fill a completely different niche. Like my Tele ASAT classic and thinline deluxe, or my LP with humbuckers and my goldtop P90. The closest are my two strat styles with single coils but even there, one has a David Gilmour pickup/wiring setup and the other has gold foils. An ES 335 Lucille and a Brian May red special and I will have all my dream guitars.

Now I feel old bro, I was 23 in 89 and seeing all the best metal bands when they were in their infancy 🤣

Hi Robert, I recently started building my own guitars- and I love It is really really fun- The coolest part is I get wood from crazy places, for example I have a piece of oak wood from a dam that was built across our local river- and it was built around the time of the civil war... So its a really cool piece of oak- Im going to build an explorer with it. So a few months ago I built an explorer body guitar with a single hot rail, no volume, just direct from pickup to output jack. The wood was from an old door frame from the old wood shop where I worked for my father when I was a little kid until in my 20s.... So the wood is this really old pine from an old building with real significance to me from my childhood...However- that guitar is CRAZY heavy!!!! It weighs 14 So, should I route out the back and make it way way lighter? The thing is- it sustains FOREVER!!!! That guitar right now sounds incredible! If I shave off a bunch of the wood, will it mess up the most amazing tone I have in any of my guitars? What is your heaviest guitar? I am guessing 9 pounds. Again, this thing is an explorer shaped body, solid Pine, 14 pounds- But it sustains for days!!!!
Thanks for this killer video....

As a lefty, I've cherished every guitar I have been able to find and own

I’m a guitar nerd too that’s why I’m here. Enjoy your videos and your an awesome player.

Robert, I’d like to hear you talk about pick-up height. I’m not a “rock” shredder, and stay away from traditional humbucker guitars, though I’m lucky enough to be a custodian of a Murphy lab SG custom. Your hums seem to be set low across the collection, and your tone is frankly lovely, so, I think it’d be educational to hear your thinking on the subject. Thanks!

[brostoevsky]

You have a beautiful collection. Man, I'm looking to pick up my 2nd electric guitar sometime this week. A 1993 Korean Epiphone Les Paul with a cherry sunburst. A real Oasis special. I have a soft spot for good Epiphone Les Pauls with the old headstock.

The correct number of guitars to have is the number you already have, plus one. Always. There is no such thing as too many. My lady just found out yesterday. I had 2 delivered on the same day, she lost her damn mind. 😂🤣😂🤣 Woman... don't tell me what to do with my own money. Deal with it. 😎

[Roy_Gaber]

Excellent video. I am down to 25 and a banjo after paring down.

[corneliuscrewe]

I sympathize. I was just pricing one of those D’Addario bulk string boxes and I realized I needed 2 😳

[TheWelhaven]

The cost of living here in Norway is insane, so buying another guitar is not an option. Luckily I have nine guitars, it’s way too many anyway. Three Gibsons, two Fenders, two Schecters, one Eastman and a Maybach. I’m good. Edit: did you just say «it’s just a normal Murphy Lab»? 😅

Sidenote: I can hear that southerner in you coming out when you're talking about the Frankie (8:15)!
