Why I Have to Wait for My Wife To Leave the Country to Go Crazy








Now, must it be this chaotic?

No, it doesn't have to be. But it is. Partly because I want the guitars I'm selling to be out & available so I can a/b different guitars easier as part of the process of determining for sure which ones get sold. Partly because I want to have them easily available if there are any questions about things I didn't notice or forgot to cover once they are listed on eBay. And partly so that I can box them up easier.

But it is pretty crazy.

Once this is all done, they will all fit on the rack/stands in the 2nd-to-last picture, and on the shelves in cases in the last picture.
 
Damn, man. To think, I'm trying to get my herd down to a level where they will all fit on a 6 guitar rack and one hanging stand. /emoticons/default_tongue.png

 
You just need your wife to start playing guitar, too, and "problem" solved.

Buy her a year's worth of guitar instruction from this guy:

I keep trying to spot the ones you got from me /emoticons/default_smile.png

I'm slowly decluttering now. Like you, I tried a bunch but I keep gravitating to a few that really speak to me.

  • The MotorAve is unique. As in, Mark only made one like this and how many times do you get to have a one-off from a "known" builder?
  • The Strat because everyone needs a Strat
  • "Goldie" the Studio Custom that looks like it went through World War III because I have fond memories of gigging that one with Mrs. Polara before Baby Polara came along
  • And the Shiskov of course!

The Chap is over on the single stand at the right side of the window, between the 2 3-guitar stands and the TV table. That's a 100% keeper. Love the neck, need the Sustainer, need to complete my Big 4 of Hamer shredders. Or, 5 w/ the Virtuoso.

The Squier Standard is standing on the floor leaning against the brown couch, but is turned string-side toward the couch. The Squier Standard is over in the 7-guitar stand. Probable keeper. Not sure. It probably needs new pickups/pickguard to keep, and I'm trying to decide if "needs no additional work" is a good cut-off point for keepers.
