Like a lot of people here I’ve probably got too many guitars, and most of the ones I dreamed of as a young player. But there’s always room for a few more right?
So here are the ones that would make my collection complete:
58 Les Paul gold top with P90s
ES-335
Jackson PC 1 in solar finish.
Jackson Warrior
Interesting number of Firebird 1s, Hamers, and Gretschs on this list. Seems like a very wide variety of guitars, of course, with a solid core of standard "needs."
Nobody wants a Ric? I guess I’m an outlier but would love a Ric 4001 like chris squire but it’s no fun playing a bass at home and no band so...

Ric 370

To go with my les Paul, strat and my 50s era specs homemade tele. What more could you need? I guess a Martin acoustic. Yeah... add that. And an acoustic 12 string. Guh. Forget it.
I have one of these - really a cool guitar and well made. I had one of the 2015 Gibson Jrs with the robotuners, etc, and really didn't care for it. The Hamer feels much better built, plays smoother and easier, and sounds very ballsy. Great guitar. They are around and not usually too much money.
I have most everything I want. But if you're buying, I'd like, in order:
– Martin D18 from the late 30s (or a D28, go ahead, twist my arm)
– Very clean early to mid 60s Strat
– Recent Montana-built Gibson SJ-200
– Vintage Super 400, with staple pickups
I can think of some others that would be purely novel, like a Bass VI, an Electric XII, a Hank Marvin or Mary Kaye Strat (or both), and a Gretsch Duo Jet masterbuilt in burgundy mist sparkle
I'd like my white '09 SG Custom back, my black '71 Tele thinline'. These are replaceable. Also a black LP Custom and a new LP Traditional - these are a great deal - I saw that looks like Jimmy Page's and it real light. Lastly a Heritage 535.
Then I'd never want for any guitar.
At this point when I see something that catches my eye, I put it on a list and it sits there until I lose interest.
I have
- an American Standard Tele
- an Eastman T184MX with Lollar Imperials (Think Gibson 339 copy)
- a Martin 000-C16 (2005)
- a Les Paul Studio with SD P-Rails (gives me my P-90 fix)
- an Alvarez AC65HCE Classical
- a Fender "50's" MIM P-Bass
- a Fender '77 Champ MuchXS Morpheus Mods
- a Blues Jr. II with BillM mods and oversized pine cab
- a 5E3 clone
- a Hendrickson The Bud
- a Yamaha THX 10C
Almost any of these could be upgraded to something a little more upscale. But when I get the urge, I spend a little time with what I have and the urge goes away. (OK, I am planning on a new classical at some point, but I can't really go shopping at the moment.)
Here is the catch-phrase: Good enough is almost always good enough.
69 Martin O 18

52 Gibson L7C
58 Telecaster
2010 MusicMan Axis Super Sport
2000 Bear Creek Weissenborn

That's the guitars and I believe (sic) that this is my final list.
