along with number you need.

Sorry I missed this bit.

I need n+1 guitars, where n is the number I will have when the next one turns up.

:lol:

I'd sig that, but its too big :(

Fits if you take out the italics.  :)

Not with the quoatation though. It'd look like I said it. Cant not give someone credit for their funnies

how is the ethical irrationality of my enjoyment of philosphising about GAS connected to the application of a universally applicable truth?

As your response contains an admission that there is "ethical irrationality" within your philosophising about GAS, it would not be too taxing for one to elucidate the deontological maxims transgressed. Should one have the inclination.
As I do not, I am trusting you will engage in a process of intellectual reflection (guided by the issues discussed thus far) in your efforts toward discovering the epistemological foundations of GAS.

There was no such admission, merely a refference to your implicaiton that there were, and subsequent queery as to what ethical transgression buying guitars because I want them commits.

Here is your answer there are on average around 25 wall hangings pictures mirrors etc in an average house if all of these are replaced with guitars you would only need a floor mount for three.

This average doesnt take into account the area taken by each wall hanging, and thus space freed for guitars by their removal, and that I refuse to use such contraptions so the neck isnt under load.

Okay I Just thought of a simple solution

How many guitars do you own and play

How many guitars do you own

The difference between these two numbers can be taken as fitting the identified category and it's easier for MDV to understand!!!  :lol:

11 + whatever I can get my hands on

11

And you clearly mean harder for me to pick holes in :)

What is the impact of neck load that you describe ? Surely the action is a minor counter tension to the string load on the neck and therefore ostensibly beneficial.

And boy is this a hot thread !!!

The weight of the guitar pulling down on it. Its equivelent to roughly an extra string thats not always there, and while the effect isnt that large, I prefer to avoid it.

And, no its not. Theres that pesky imposition of the mindstate of the reader on the tone of text ;)

The weight of the guitar is acting against the strings.

Oh yeah. Then reverse what I said - its a string less. Either way, dont like it.

I was worried about using hangers but I think i've had my hercules ones for (roughly) 2 years now and have been great. No noticeable difference in my guitars as of yet..

E) I have to have a range of colours and styles to match my shoes and shirt I can't possibly be seen with a guitar that clashes

as denim'n'leather once said to me: "get out of here poseur!!"

i don't know how many guitars i have any longer, but i'd like a 70s V, a V XPL, and a Hamer Vector KK... at least

i'm not that much of dick to say its just about the style, but its nice to have one that suits your mood. i usually wear black anyway ;)

I just dont trust it, but duly noted.
