Wisest answer!  I do at least occasionally use all the ones I've kept.  Otherwise what's the point?

(No offence to the collectors out there of course.)

To paraphrase that advert for poncey overpriced watches: you never own a guitar, you merely look ater it for the next generation.

Therefore my answer is 0:0:0.

Real working instruments: 2:1:2

Plus 4 x £50 ebay dogs (and some random necks) that are my amateur luthery test-beds. One will be a decent guitar when I stick the nut back on (yam pacifica 112v - I'll probably sell that) . The others are in the process of being re-fretted and randomly hacked about.

I thought he’d simplified his counting methods to number of completely full garages these days
