I'm at a point where I own more instruments than ever before in my life. I was having a dilemma a little bit back about why I even played music. All I ever did was look for cooler gear, as if someday, if I had enough cool then I would magically start writing baddass tunes. I have enough pedals to make as much noise and drone as I could ever dream (minus a couple effects, like chorus, flange, and oddball shit). But what really holds me back from just sitting my ass down and writing is tone searching and finding the right strings and tunings. Having a bunch of guitars makes me want to tune them all differently, which would be fine, but...... all this leads to having too many choices. More choices means more decision time which means less creativity.
I want less superfluous crap so I can just think about writing songs instead of which instrument I want to play and why.
So this is a really long way of saying that I'm thinking of selling my baritone that I built but I'm not sure if I should or want to. I don't play it very much at all these days, and I'm probably getting a guitar this season sometime that will kill all my future guitar GAS for a looooooooooooong time, and probably basically make me forget that I even own other guitars for equally as long. But I built the baritone myself. I'm also wondering how to price something like that, where I spent a lot time making it and got good parts for it, but they're all kind of modified and in a couple places kind of blemished.
Thoughts?
