Due to long term addiction status I've had my hands on some nice stuff over the years. I've bought way more than I've sold. Currently have around 20 guitars including some custom, small shop builds and some decent vintage stuff.

A few of my favorites include...
- Suhr Classic
- Suhr Classic T
- '83 Fender Strat '62 Reissue (one of the early US built ones)
- '49 Gibson ES-125
- '65 Gibson ES-330
- '77 Less Paul Standard
- Collings OM1
- Huss & Dalton OO-SP

Most of them were purchased prior to having kids 15 years ago.

I also have an early '90s Fender P-Bass for laying down bass lines in the studio.
 
I have to update the pic as there have been a few additions since, but here's my collection. About 30 years of collecting stuff and hardly selling anything.

Well, if you ever do get into the selling mode, that Ric is just begging to come to my house.

What is the LP copy in back, next to the Pignose? Looks very Matsumoku (mid-80's Japanese), which I would be interested in.

I have, for the first time in 35 years, actually downsized a little. Of course, it wasn't voluntary. A pawn shop ended up getting to keep 3 so far. Never ask 'How could things get any worse?' You'll get your answer.
 
The black guitar near the Pignose is a 1980 Ibanez AR-50 BK (I think that's the right #). Thickness of a Les Paul, but double cut away like an SG. Bought it for $20 at a record store when I was a kid. And the Rick is a 77 Burgundy. Got it for $200 at a pawn shop in the early 90's. I've been very fortunate.

I don't really have a collection (not much of actual value) - more an accumulation of mostly $300 guitars that are solid workhorses. Like many on this site, I'm a hopeless Gear Slut, who checks Craigslist at least 3 times a day.

You know I hate you, don't you?

It's not enough you have the amps and the pool and the warm weather...
