Thoughts anyone?
I think I could be in trouble on this score but hoping someone can bail me out!

I think the safe answer is one more than you have at the moment.
It's not the quantity you currently have, it's if you still have the itch to have more. I have 4 electric guitars, but I /<\\/p>[]<\\/p>/want more. There are a number of different Tele variations I desire. I want a Jazzmaster. I want a Firebird. I use my guitars in church and for home recording, but I don't need more. I just like the idea of having more. And I am willing to sell the guitars I have so I can acquire new guitars. I think that means I have G.A.S.
I know guys who have one guitar and are very happy with just that. Therein lies the difference.
I think the question is can you really ever have enough..
The answer I think not
guitars...enough...sorry I don't understand the conversation
I feel soooooo much better now!
For 20 years I had owned only one guitar, I was normal, happy and very satisfied.
About six months ago I discovered PBG. I now have FOUR, building a FIFTH, and planning more!!! I think I need help!

They say the first step to recovery of any addiction is to admit you have a problem.
As I steadfastly refuse to do this, therefore I have no problem... :D
You know when you have GAS or BAS when you join PBG and become a Pest :P :D
How many guitars does a guitarist need? Just one more.
haha yes Gav I had GAS when I purchased my 2nd PBG kit about a year ago, about 25 odd kits later I think I must have purchased about as many kits as you !
my only issue for me is where to store them all although a few have been sold for charity.
I reckon you must have over thirty in total Woks?
not sure Gav, Wayne has built maybe 3 or 4 of them, and some kits I use for scratch body builds, so its hard to put a figure on it. All I know we are probably both presidents of GAS !! haha
I'll do a count next couple of days and count the total Pitbull necks, should be approaching 30 !
Ouch! I am counting in 4's....Quote:

You two must keep Adam in business singlehandedly. Nice work guys.
Wokka certainly will be keeping PBG in the black, I think I'm sponsoring StewMac and DHL with my acoustic builds.... 8O
haha yes Gav between us we keep PBG and Stewmac in the black.
I probably won't have a Pit Bull entry for GOTM October, hanging out for the ash ST and EX kits won't be available for another month or so. I got 2 scratch body builds on the go which I can't enter.
I did a rough count lastnight and counted 27 Pit Bull necks but I may have missed some as a few have been sold and are at other houses
37! Lord help me!
Hey Gav, is 37 the number of Pit Bull kits you have built ?
I thought I had a problem but that makes me feel like vice president of GAS now ! haha
you guys need to post up some group shots!
No, i should count the PBG kits....i own 37 guitars....i'll go quietly when the men in white jackets arrive to fetch me....as long as I get to bring them ALL with me when I go!!!!!!Quote:

Gav - does that include ukes?
The 37 *38 guitars includes the Maton Uke and the Uke I built as well as the 4 basses (All PBG's) - but does not include the two guitars and the Midi Guitar that my kids have. Maybe I should sand the kids guitars back and Wudtone them...or do one in Tru Oil for my son and Concho Girl Pink for my daughter.....can't do anything for the Midi since it is already covered in PLASTIC!
Garage / Gumtree Sale might need consideration! :)
*Due to a quick count leading to the discovery that I have 17 PBG kits! I realised that DB still has one of my Guitars a prized Fretless HB-4 in concho girl Pink at his house!
nice work Gav, thats quite a collection.
Stan here's a pic of a small part of my collection, my 27 PBG count doesn't include 4 guitars I have bought, 2 lap steels and an old bass, and doesn't include any of the cigar box guitars shown in this photo, have built at least 12 CBG's so my total count must be approaching 50, I need a golf counter I think !

Definitely a problem Wok's!
But as I keep saying, (to convince myself of my own sanity) my guitars in number are still below the number of shoe's the wife has....
thats a great argument Gav, just keep the axe number below wifes shoe count and you will be ok !
Adam's collection must be getting close to 20 guitars/basses, does he qualify for GAS ? at least 10 or a dozen were built by DB !
ive got 14 including the bird kit that brought me here , plus parts for 3 others and have plans to have a few more down the track ....... do i have a problem , nope ;)
Goatis, not yet...but soon!
i forgot about my SG in pieces there to , plus another pointy offset thigner , so thats 16 , and theres another coming , and theres another 10 different models i want , doesnt bother me to much if i have a whole bunch , i cant drink and i gave up smoking , making/modifying guitars for myself is my outlet
@ wokka - nice ES, do you have a build thread?
@ Goatis, you are on the borderline of having GAS, when you reach 20 guitars you have it for sure
@ Stan, sorry just saw your post, I have a build diary for the ES-1G, the colour changed about 3 times as I had so much drama removing the glue from the cap near the binding. Sorry the build diary isn't complete, I'll post a completed photo on the build diary
