Should I sell some guitars

    Sounds good - I guess you can get all of these on a single guitar stand.  I find I don't tend to bother opening up cases to play things, so I keep to what I can fit on a single 7 way multi stand (I have guitars and basses on it).
    Curently got 5 Wall hangers, a 5-guitar rack and a three-guitar stand, so If I can get down to 5 on the wall and one lent against the amp, I'll be all good :)

    Make sure you sell the stands as well :). Or at least the 5-way rack, if you use the stand for gigging.

    That way you will feel foolish if you're ever tempted to buy enough guitars that you have to buy another one ;).

    You're not hiding a few acoustics from us are you? :)

    Not many, honest :). Just two, ones a little parlour guitar that lives in the lounge so doesn't count, the others my only one I really play.  Before you ask, only one bass:). Just need to start a 'should I sell some keyboards' thread.  Only kidding, one piano, one synth

    Yeah that'd be great.  Would regain a lot of floor space!

    I can't do wall hangers as I've got a bunch of broadband acoustic panels hung up.  But having de-cluttered the room it's just much nicer to be in and I don't miss owning 10+ guitars at all

    She's not the issue, certainly not getting nagged in to selling any.  Saying that, I'm open to offers ;)

    Yes, looking forward to it too, and maybe a track day car with the proceeds :)

    I actually grabbed a Les Paul case to put it in and found an Edwards Les Paul in there, so make that 16 :)

    Sounds like you should get rid off all of them except the silver jet  15-1. Sorted.

    This is always hard, I've often sold off guitars and regretted it.....now I have 12 and most of them just get the occasional strum/tune up......but I know if I sold one I'd regret it.....I'll only sell now if I REALLY need the money

    I'm like that.  I have around 15 including acoustic and basses, but I'm fickle and regularly fall in and out of love with them, so I know I'd regret selling any.  Also, the most expensive one I own is a Squier CV Tele, so most of them just wouldn't be worth selling.  I'm not short of space so it's not really a problem.

    I've sold lots over the years - well into double figures.  There's only one I kind of regret selling.
