New Guitar Day. Just a short way of saying, hey everybody, I got a new guitar today. It is always a big time in our lives and we want to share the excitement.

Hey man, just ask. Don't burn up your brain. I'm probably the least knowledgeable person here.

Yup, New Guitar Day... it took me a little bit upon joining to catch up too. That, and GAS... I actually just taught my hubby what that meant a couple weeks ago. He was amused by my using it in a sentence.

Oh! I thought they had been to Taco Bell. Silly me.

Somebody say "GAS"?

Speaking of GAS... I realized as I was moving my bedroom around... I now own 3 guitars, and my husband owns 3 guitars. That's not counting my son's, just what's in MY room. There are SIX guitars living in my bedroom. Um, it seems a bit much but I am not about to give any of MINE UP! LOL!

Amy; just saying, you "might" be spoiled! In a good way, of course!
Offline
You've got it bad, Amy. I had no idea. And speaking of the original post, along those lines anyway, I have never known what WOOT stands for. See it all thhe time.

Haha Beamer! But I can't pick on ya, it took me forever to figure it out.

Yes Jim, I am VERY SPOILED! 
Pete - I really did NOT realize that we had so many guitars around here. I will admit, other than the Martin they are all under $300 each, but still. Mind you, I don't usually play his guitars and he generally doesn't play mine. Oh, and since I got my Martin my husband is now GASSING for a Gibson. At some point, we will have to remove some guitars from our bedroom before there's no place for us to sleep. My three all have a purpose (a classical, a beater, and a Martin) and so do his, (an electric, a beater, and a Fender). I see how difficult it can be to get RID of guitars now though.
Oh... Say "Whoot Hoot" out loud. It's just a hoop and a holler.

The trick is to not keep all your guitars in the same room. That way you don't see the herd together. One in the livingroom, one in the bedroom, one in the basement, heck just get one for every room in the house. Then no matter where you are, if he urge strikes you an axe isn't far away.

As you purchase the finer guitars, it is a little easier to part with an old one. That's what I do. I have three, but if I ever buy another, I will probably get rid of the lesser model. We all do it differently. I usually give an older model to grandkids or good friends who may be learning.

I am considering dispersing mine throughout the house. I'd like to have on win my "office" which unfortunately is actually a sitting area in our bedroom. The wife may not like that. I used to keep one at work but I am in a new office now with too many eyes and I don't want anyone getting the wrong impression about my priorities.
For me 3 does seem to be the magic number. Cue the Schoolhouse Rock song!

You might consider a uke for the bathroom. You can't get enough practice in, you know.

Hey hey hey, it's NG(well "C" for now) Day
We just bought some new wheels, I subtly noted that since it was her car (the C) I should snag a new guitar...
She suggested it was really mine and she'd just pick up some new clothes. *sigh*
We shall see...

Well, that's settled... and we decided to share the car. So, less closet space for me is in the offing but -- it's N*G*D for me so I won't hardly even notice.
A friend is culling his crop and has a Martin D15 circa 2001 more or less; all mahogany body, one piece back, well seasoned and sounding sweet! if the ad is still up there's a pic at
<edit: URL removed, ad no longer posted JG>
I'll post couple here if I can figure out how but it looks a lot like the one Guitarpix posted on naolslager's thread.
This one does have the Martin D15 mahogany top label inside.
Gotta go make some noise
Jim
