I have been relatively fanatical about guitar tone for many years, and as a result, I've got a handful of guitars and amps. I have them because I've needed them in the past, and they've all paid for themselves several times over. But that doesn't mean it makes sense to keep them simply as expensive mementos of days gone by! On the contrary, it makes no sense at all, my emotional attachment to them notwithstanding.
Currently I'm spending almost all of my joy-time writing orchestral music. Since COVID, when I got into the orchestral stuff in a big way, guitars have played a much smaller role in my life. At this point, I play mine more out of guilt than out of need, or even desire.
Hey, change is a constant. It happens!
I'm beginning to think it's counterproductive to so much as change strings on a guitar I'm not using. And if that concept changes, fine, but all I really need to do at this moment is pick one electric, keep one acoustic, keep one or two amps, and let everything else go.
I figure I should hang onto my PS acoustic, because it's my only one. But I might keep only one or two electrics and one or two amps. I'm honestly not sure.
Then again, I could keep everything because WTF. I already own it.
I'm standing at the crossroads; Believe I'm sinking down.
"What would you do with the money if you sold your gear, Les?"
"You mean besides hookers and booze?"
"You never do hookers and booze."
"I know, but it sounds pretty badass, right?"
