Quote from: des0free on August 07, 2024, 01:26:12 AMI just had a thought - maybe I can buy a new "Bass" because maybe it wouldn't be classified as a "guitar" by my wife?  After all, most people just call it "Bass" not "Bass guitar" right? In fact, screw those people who say "guitar". It ain't no guitar, its a BAZZZ, and I'm gonna buy another one and it won't count against my "guitar allocation", OK?

all is fair in love of guitars and war...

What my friend does is buy the guitar put it in the corner of the garage by the band stuff leaves it for a couple weeks then pulls it out in front of the wife if she says anything he says this one from my old band stuff

I'm well into double figures for guitars, I'm struggling to play the ones that I have - I'm probably maxed out. However, if "the one" pops up, I may just have to ...

I said to my wife;

-by the way, I'd like to buy a Baroque Lute.

she replies, slightly annoyed

- another guitar! but you've already got 24!

I reply
- no, 25, but a Baroque lute isn't a guitar

and she adds, relieved
- ah well, that's okay then

These days I merely dabble at being old and wise.
But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.

I'm assuming you lied
about having 25 and currently have 24, so now you can buy 1 lute and 1 guitar. Then when she counts your guitars, after you remind her the lute is not a guitar, she will verify that you still have "only" 25 guitars.  ;D
