This is how I roll except when Im not in a band. So be in bands, people!Quite easy for me: Buy only stuff I need for the bands I play. Done.
This is good advice.My advice which may or may not work for others is get a really, really good setup on your ‘best’ guitar.
Then everything you try with a standard setup will be inferior and you won’t want it as much.
You have to consider why you want to buy so many guitars. I was really bad about it when I was in a band because I wanted to find the perfect assembly of equipment that gave me tone, minimalism, and uniqueness.A weord question I know, but recently I came to the conclusion I want way too many guitars than my budget allows for. How do you manage your GAS and prioritizing which guitars you get?
Yep. Cheap guitars, as it turns out, are ultimately the most expensive.My GAS has steadily climbed the financial ladder. Past a certain 4 figure point, im breaking even at worst. I cant say the same for a decade of buying and selling more affordable guitars (almost always a loss). I understand Im in a unique place to buy luxury guitars right now - which is part of why Im doing it. But if there is suddenly a reason I need to sell all or some of that collection, I can rest easy knowing I wont be losing any money. It’s way easier to drop 4k knowing I wont lose anything than drop $1500 knowing I might lose $500 when I decide I want something else.

I don’t. I just keep buying stuff.A weord question I know, but recently I came to the conclusion I want way too many guitars than my budget allows for. How do you manage your GAS and prioritizing which guitars you get?
