Did you buy a guitar in January, 2023?

[drewg]

Used but like-new Godin Stadium HT Trans White on 25 January for half the price of a new one.
First guitar purchase in a couple of years.

Beautiful! I’ll keep my eyes open for one like that…

I went with yes even though I really only bought the body in January.
The rest came before, probably use an Oct neck, and Dec bridge, but assembly probably in Feb. One more coat needed on the body, but also need to tout the neck pocket a little.

Yes. Two days before my birthday, a 2002 Tacoma JF 21…

That’s some beautiful grain patterns on there. Are you keeping it natural? Man, that’s just gorgeous.

What wood and finish is it? Gorgeous! I’d love to see the finished piece!

 

[Johnny Dubs]

No, but I have high hopes for February (I am my own Valentine.)

Swamp ash with a Minwax Tung Oil finish, hope it’s a guitar soon!

I did!
I’ve been on the lookout for an inexpensive project guitar.
I found a 1998 Squier Affinity Tele for sale at a very reasonable price.
The plan is to try my hand at a red white and blue Buck Owens style finish and yeah, I’m going to attempt glitter!
I’ll let y’all know how that goes.

Does boxing day sale count?

 

[Festofish]

Kind of…my partner bought me a CV Jag.

 

[tomasz]

Let me think.. a singlecut?
But then, I also sold 4 or 5

 

[northernguitar]

I traded a Fender Japan ’52RI Tele for a Squier Classic Vibe Tele, a MIM Fender HSS Stratocaster and a MXR Micro Chorus pedal. Trade went down Thursday, so technically not January.

I bought a 2016-17 Mustang PJ bass guitar in January. I also acquired a lovely 335 in December.

I think I’m done for now although I do plan some minor upgrades to my home studio.

These two.

 

[Mjark]

I gave one away.

 

[swarfrat]

I was thinking no but I forgot already. Whups.

 

[Bob M]

Nothing new yet. I felt I needed a D sized acoustic but I’m kind of on a Gibson kick and thinking about SGs and Firebirds! Something new is coming!

 

[BuckNekkid]

My guitar room has run out of space! Before I can buy another, I have to get rid of a few.

 

[stormsedge]

I gave one away and had a net gain of two...a Player Strat and a Hendrix style Partscaster.

 

[mexicanyella]

I bought this Epiphone Jeff Baxter signature acoustic:
