Tele
Les Paul
That'll be it
but all power to ya, you don't have to justify anything to me, and I'm sure they're all fab guitars
Gibson sg hard tail main guitar
Charvel hard tail back up guitar
Epi les Paul 1st guitar
Ibanez ep9 acoustic guitar
Functional tools mainly.
Telecaster - only single coil bridge guitar I have due to sticking a humbucker in the above Strat (purely to play old Green Day songs)
Epiphone Les Paul - used for standard tuning/drop d rock numbers for lessons.
Gibson Les Paul Studio - main drop tuned band guitar in drop c
Gibson Les Paul Junior (The Billie Joe Armstrong sig) - cos I'm a Green Day fan if you hadn't guessed by now.
Takamine EG321c - acoustic main teaching guitar
Tanglewood acoustic - first ever acoustic I got. Won't ever sell. Keep as spare or to use in alternate tunings.
Do you "justify" the number of t-shirts you have?
Once you start to try to find justifications, you're just establishing the basis of the argument that you'd have to have with anyone who thinks you have too many.
"Why have you got so many guitars?"
Acceptable answers are
- why not
- because I do
- because I can
- etc
I’m so bored I might as well be listening to Pink Floyd
Ascribing specific duties to individual instruments closes off undiscovered possibilities. I would like to think that each instrument has capabilities that I have yet to exploit.
That said, I could probably stand to lose a few, however there are a number of them that have so much sentimental value that I couldn't bring myself to part with them.
Gibson SG - backup guitar
Squier VM Jazz Bass - main bass
Bitsa P Bass - backup bass
I have to justify them to Mrs P, because the i want to, I can etc arguments don't wash.
I have 2 Guitars with Locking Trems, bought for that very reason. One is HH (Wolfgang), one is HSS(Ruokangas Strat With Split Option), I have to have a Strat as you cannot get that signature Quack sound from Positions 2 and 4 from any other Guitar.
I have 2 Teles, but only need 1, both Am Std, but one is a Limited Edition in a Colour I just "had to have". They sound slightly different due to one being Ash and the other Alder. They have different model pick ups from each other.
I have an S.G and a L.P because I love the Classic Rock sound you get from them. There's a certain character to the tone of these guitars that other HH Guitars I've heard don't have. Also love the Jazzy Neck Pick Up tones from the L.P.
I try to never get two guitars in the same or similar colour.
I'm quite Gassy for a Jazzmaster at the moment. I dig how the trem works and I've loved some of the Surfy stuff I've heard on some Youtube channels. The sound has a bit more bite and more body than a Strat.
