It comes from playing for over 35 years and collecting all the time!
So many pickups, so little time

Me and my wife (Prozacbear) share our gear:

Guitars:

Tokai LP - Nailbomb set
Fender Custom Shop Strat - Irish Tour set
Feline Tabby - Blackguard 50's
Ibanez S2170FW - Mississippi Queen neck, Piledriver middle, Nailbomb Bridge
Tokai 120 (335) - Stock pups (begging for stormy mondays)
AXL acoustic

Warpig set on order, probably for the Ibanez. And I think the Riff Raff set mentioned by wez is destined to head this way.

Amps:

Orange Rockerverb 50 into Orange 4x12 (V30's) via a hotplate
Orange Tiny Terror into Orange 1x12 (v30)
Peavey Valveking 112
Gibson LP std + Nailbomb set
Diezel VH4 & Orange Rockerverb 50

Haven't you guys only played for a year or so? Whatever you do for a living, that's what I wanna do. Unless you're an accountant, in which case I don't envy you at all.

Yup I feel the same way. One year and ALL that gear?
I've played 3-4 years and I only have one amp, one or two guitars and two BKPs

Really not looking for an argument here, but I have to say I don't see any problem with 'new' players buying themselves decent equipment, and lots of it, if they can afford to do so. It seems to me that both Ailean and Prozacbear enjoy their playing and their gear, and why not?

To my mind, there's never been a rule that says 'you have to have played x number of years before you're allowed nice equipment'. And this is coming from a guy who had 1 guitar an an amp for the first 7 years of his playing.  :wink:

To clarify, I don't have a problem with it, I'm just wondering. If I could afford it, I'd have a bleedin' Steinway even though I can't play piano.

That's fair enough, I wasn't having a go or anything. It's just that I've run across a lot of people in real life (as opposed to online) who reckon somebody shouldn't be allowed something gear-wise cos they haven't been playing long enough, which I think is a weird position to hold.

I think that it's a lot to do with the world that we live in - we're generally far more afluent than we ever have been, and decent gear is pretty cheap these days.

I still can't afford any of it, mind you...
