tommy p Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I saw this topic posted on TGP and thought it was interesting. I may have missed one or two of mine, but I have a spreadsheet now and this is probably close. I had never thought about that before but wanted to see what my history looked like. I still have 23 but this, to the best of my memory and a spreadsheet I made a few years back, is what I've had.

crunchee Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 (edited) I don't pay much attention to 'brand names', especially since import builders churn out tons of guitars under lots of different names. I pay much more attention to who originally makes the guitars in the first place...or in the case of 'partscasters', who makes the parts; plus the level of materials and quality of the guitar/parts or lack thereof.

tbonesullivan Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Oh jeez. This is in order, and also includes basses. But amazingly there is no company that I have owned a bass from that I have not also owned a guitar from. Hondo Fender Epiphone Ibanez Carvin Gibson Hamer Heritage G&L Music Man And that's it. I'm pretty boring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I had for a short time was an offset body with tele pickups. Great guitar, but something about the placement of the neck pickup I didn't jive with. Didn't realize how expensive they've gotten. Yikes! Edited October 26, 2023 by JES1680 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana_V Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Sorted by quantity, then alphabetical by brand. This includes two basses, but since we're talking about guitars I didn't include my banjo (Gibson), mandolin (Johnson), ukuleles (Gremlin, Lanikai) or my daughter's guitars and ukuleles. And since I never get rid of anything, I still have all of these – including the "unbranded acoustic guitar from JC Penny" my grandmother gave me for Christmas in 1971. I got my first electric in 1973 (a Univox Hi-Flier) and it just kinda grew from there. After my wife died in 2014 I went a little crazy with the guitar buying for a couple of years, but it's since slowed down considerably. In fact, I haven't bought a guitar since March 2022! Twenty-six brands, fifty-eight instruments: 1 – Hamer (21) 2 – Gibson (5) 3 – Fender (3) 4 – Danelectro (2) 5 – E.L. Vandiver (2) 6 – Gordon–Smith (2) 7 – Shishkov (2) 8 – Texas Box Guitars (2) 9 – Univox (2) 10 – Carvin (1) 11 – Celebrity by Ovation (1) 12 – Chandler (1) 13 – Del Rey (1) 14 – Eastwood (1) 15 – Galveston (1) 16 – HardLuck Kings (1) 17 – Hinkler (1) 18 – Jackson (1) 19 – Kimberly (1) 20 – Lone Star (1) 21 – Martin (1) 22 – Peavey (1) 23 – Rogue (1) 24 – Sully (1) 25 – Supro (1) 26 – Unbranded acoustic guitar from JC Penny (1) (The only reason I know this is because I put together a list for insurance purposes a while back – which I highly recommend everyone do.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
