Dilemma: I really have bought a bit much what would you unload?

[coloradoman25]

I am having a dilemma here. I am in love with these ibanez's i bought and all the other toys. But I really have kinda over spent recently and need to even the flow out a bit. I either have to sell 2 of my stars one other axe or one star and 2 of my other axes. I can get pics if neccessary but this is kinda where I am at.

Option 1:

PRS CE 22 Holoflake
Holoflash Star
Dimartini strat I just built


Option 2:
Holoflash Star
Jackson USA Hydrographiced Vintage Star
Di Martini Strat


I have a couple others that were already going to even this out but I just seriously spent like almost 6k on shit in the last month since I got my shoulder back in order. I really dont want to sell anything but those are the guitars that spend more wall time than play time. I still have a bunch of other stars and also have a dimarzio Star I am working on plus the 2 customs coming so its not like it would "kill" my star collection. The holoflash star I could easily build again so that isnt so painful, but the CE22 and the Jackson star are uber rare. Not sure what to do but wife is gonna kick my ass if I dont. Normally she doesnt care what I buy but 6k in a month is kinda excessive.

I dunno what to do here. I need to win the fuckin lotto so I can keep this shit instead. Someone buy my damn fishing rods in the other post.

Are the options listed what you'd sell or what you'd keep? And damn dude, I need your finances where spending $6k in a month is even a remote option. ;p

[coloradoman25]

THats what I would sell. And im not rich im an idiot with a credit card lol

[coloradoman25]

ive got plenty other gear but thats stuff I'm not willing to sell

[SausageofPower]

If it was me, I'd go option 2. Though I admittedly have a weakness for PRS guitars. And I hear ya on the credit card front. I did that a few years back and am almost done paying for it. Ah, to be young and stupid with good credit...at least I didn't dig myself too deep of a hole.

[coloradoman25]

I can cover it its not that i couldnt keep myself above water, but with a family it was kinda irresponsible of me lol. I just was so fuckin excited that I am getting to play again I went fuckin balls to the wall. I havent felt this good in a decade, and that combined with actually gaining feeling in my fingertips on the left hand was enough to make me just go apeshit.

I can't really say. Everyone's taste in guitars is different.

[SausageofPower]

I'm not judging dude. Granted, I'm single and have no kids, but I did similar crap. Every time I got some extra cash that I should have thrown at car payments or credit cards to get closer to being out of debt, I got a guitar or two. Nothing as nice as yours, but I love my guitars. Either way, it's a tough call. Personally, and this is what I've done when I've gone nuts, is just tighten the belt for a few months to even it out. I hate selling stuff.

[coloradoman25]

I dont mind unloading stuff as I always manage to find more cool stuff but a few of these are a bit more near and dear to me as I was getting down to those. I still have way too many freakin guitars its an addiction lol

[SausageofPower]

I know the feeling dude, too well. It's actually a good thing I ended up getting in a tight financial spot, otherwise I'd have kept buying stuff on credit. As it turned out, things went just about perfectly. Next year when my car is done though I'll probably go nuts, just without tapping credit. Gotta live on cash and keep out of trouble. Or get the girlfriend to chip in. :P

[coloradoman25]

I make sure i can always cover the statement balance and I can do it this month but dont want to short the family on other stuff. Just got a bit caught up and was inconsiderate lol But the wife agreed i had a right to be a bit selfish after the shoulder stuff.

[j2379]

line them all up and choose which ones would be the hardest to replace, keep those. and that not just based on what it is but how it plays.

[coloradoman25]

You'd cry if you knew how much I spent in the last 60 days. I know I almost could.

I need to get off my ass and sell some stuff too. Can't really function tripping over guitar cases and amp heads
