What a collection! I usually keep it to max 10 guitars, it suits me as a person. Don't have the ''wife problem'', she always supports me in getting another one as long as everything else is paid in terms of bills and necessities. I'm super lucky!

“Ibanei” sounds the most horrendous out of the options for the plural form of Ibanez and therefore must be correct. Thank you for coming to my ted talk

I think you should upgrade your homemade school project guitar, put the highest end gear in it that you can and then make a Black Metal or Blackened Death Metal video lol.

Ah there we go! The lights came back on!

2:35 I wish a pinch harmonic played whenever I dropped the F-bomb

Talkin bout ibanez apex U bar: munky & head used it mostly for the follow the leader album and yes, they used it a lot! even in the issues album, kinda freaky tremolo sounds they got in many songs

That's a cool collection. All because of passion and hardwork! Love it. :)

This video makes me feel less guilty about my short (comparing to yours) amount of guitars. Happy new year mate.

Sweet collection

At this point, my laughter couldn't be contained anymore 😂😂😂 (2:21)

I did a similar thing with my Ibanez guitar, only I don't like the look of no knob on the volume pot. So I too a narrow knob off of a pedal and put that on it, looks way better than leaving the pot without a knob imo.

Fender sixty six is one of the best guitars I've played. One of my favourites. Also Pete I joined the 7 string gang a few days back so I'll be looking to you for some riff inspiration

I buy a guitar, and when I find something better I buy it also. After reaching 17 guitars, I started selling them because I didn’t want a collection. I only want what I’m going to use.

soooo everyone on youtube did a "look at all my guitars", on the same week.

I was waiting for this video after getting the notification the first time

I like being given options and choosing the best one in my opinion, so... if I had the ability to add one of these guitars to my collection it'll be the... Ibanez RG8327 J Custom I would've chosen the PRS SC but I already own one :P

8:13 On the Harley Benton website, it says that the Amarok guitars come with a WSC HPS-7 Custom hardtail, not a hipshot bridge.

Pete says “I have to many guitars” Rob scallon and Jared Dines leave chat

It's a shame Ibby made a 7 string, fixed bridge version of that black, single hum Prestige model...but it was exclusive to the Japanese market and you can't even find ones used anymore.

"Ibanez" is a Spaniard surname (it's actually "Ibáñez") so it has no plural. It's just "several Ibanez guitars."

Happy new year ! Every new year here is the same dream: To have other guitar 😂

regarding the tremol-no in the Ibanez, I used to have the same stuff in my FR equipped guitar, and I noticed you need to tighten the screws reaallllyyy hard, like almost to the point of breaking them for it to hold properly, but once I found the sweet spot it worked like a charm. This things also vary in their "gripping" part, the shape is different for different styles of trems, maybe the one you have is not the best fitting one?

Jeez. I've only ever had 2 in my whole life.

I lowkey love K guitars and have been dying for one ever since I saw And The Kids playing on NPR Tiny Desk Concert.

The guitars your ''aren't so sure about'' could be some fun idea for a collab with Philip McKnight! Let them get some new life!

how would you rate from 1 to 5 the Ibanez apex 1 custom? is it a great guitar?

Monkey and Head used the u-bar for tremolo. It's to block the small tuners on the floyd rose. They used to jiggle to Floyd with their hand for that kind of effect but it would knock the stings out of tune. I remember reading about it in an old Total Guitar when the custom model came out.

I have an Ibanez RG8 that's heavily carved, painted and stickered, an RG7 also carved, painted and stickered with no strings, an SRM6 also carved, stickered and painted, a cheap 5 string acoustic bass from Amazon that's becoming heavily stickered, and an old 6 string classical acoustic that's heavily stickered, painted, with a modded cutaway for upper fret access, and converted to a 7 string with a homemade polymer plastic bridge. The only other guitars I want are a classical or straight acoustic 8 string ( I'm kinda mad I missed out on a model they were selling on Amazon a few years back ) and an acoustic 6 string bass.

So if you did an amp collection video, I'm picking it would be pretty short?

I actually really like you're homemade guitar,cool shape,cool headstock .

4:35 I've had a similar experience with a Tremol-No. Just didn't do what I thought it would. Real shame, 'cause I'd like to be able to go from standard to drop tuning without the hassle that usually comes with Floyd Rose bridges but oh well.

Get all the guitars you need for tone or playability. Once you’re buying guitars you don’t need just because they look cool you have too many guitars.

PRS Singlecut - what is this model?

Right now I just have a Schecter c-1 Platinum, which for 399 USD new was a hell of a deal. Grover tuners (non-locking) and emg pick ups. Set-thru neck. Only thing I really want to change on it is the 81/85 pick ups. Just not my thing. I really want to try the hot 70's retro-active set like what are in the Amarok's you have.

Ps.. Love the videos 🤘🤘

Hi Pete, didn't you have a red jackson before ?, I think it was a demmelition.

The U-bar on the Korn's signatures guitar was because to protect the fine tuners, the way Munky and Head plays live they alway hit the tuners with the palm.

I miss my Ibanez RG2610E. I sold it towards an Ibanez JS1000 which I still have and its a beast but now looking back I wish I wouldn't have traded my RG towards the JS1000. I ended up coming across a couple of years afterwards in the classified ads but didn't have the money at the time to get it back. I'm still looking for one but they're quite rare. I did manage to obtain another even rarer Ibanez this year though, a VBT700. They supposedly only made about 500 of them before a lawsuit caused them to stop production.

OMG! I just got that Blues Box Guitar from a family friend for Christmas! LOL It's not great, but it's fun to fiddle around with. I've never played slide, and I sound terrible. :P

I used to think that I would be a minimalist in my guitar wishes... however, I like my floyd rose guitar a LOT, and I wish that I had guitars ready and setup to immediate grab for writing in different tunings (Drop D... Eb-Standard... Drop-C#... D-Standard... etc.) Might need a couple more basses with some capos to match. I guess too many guitars would mean more guitars than useful tunings.

Happy 2021! What a collection, nice! Ever feel the need to do some fun/interesting/crazy/downright absurd modding on stuff you don't use anymore, hit me up :D And there is never such a thing as too many guitars... of course.

7:48 as a coffee drinker i know this is a coffee spot on the right bottom :D

Love that 66

In answer to the thumbnail question: rationally I'd say 3 guitars is petty much the point where dismissing returns probably set in. Yes yes, you can argue: "acoustic, 4 string bass, 5 string bass, Tele, stratocaster, 6 string, 7 string, 8 string, Hollow body. That's already more than 3! Let alone all the woods and pick up configurations!!". True. But really the sound of a guitar is for the most part, especially when playing heavily distorted sounds, determined by the pick ups and the amp/FX. So you get a guitar with the most strings you'll ever use that has the best playability for you. Now get another one of those in another color for a different tuning so you don't spend too much time returning. And then you get a cool "specialty guitar as a third. For a live gigging band that doesn't have someone backstage to retune to different tunings I can defend like 1 or 2 more guitars. Now irrationally there is absolutely no limit. If you like the look, or the brand, or an artist that uses a specific model, or the color that's all valid irrational reason to expend that collection. But from a "playing" perspective I think 3 is the rational sweetspot for a skilled guitar player. For me the limit is 2. A bass and a electric guitar. As my skills in both are... Well... Close to none existing 😂 But this way I have 2 chances to find an instrument that works for me 😂😅

pete pls keep doin wat u're doin, u did a good job over the years!! also, pls, keep using windows. don't use mac, ever... thank u

i have a jackson jdr 94, an extremely rare guitar, and i think its neck is thinner then your rg550, dont get me wrong just saying. awesome guitars and an awesome video like the others.

I have a guitar for every drop tuning from drop D to drop G# (except drop C#, I don't play that much in that tuning so I use my drop C guitar for that when I need it) yeah I'm a lazy f*ucker and I refuse to retune my guitars.

Rabea has this black and gold burl or some kind of birds eye topped guitar with brass fittings on it that just pushes all my aesthetic buttons. He doesn't play it often, but in many of his latest videos Ive seen it on a stand in the background. It looks the way a chocolate orange tastes. If more guitars looked like that I could see how collecting would be a problem for me. XD

I have a ibanez gio and a squier bass

And my wife says 14 is too many. Pff. I’m hitting amateur numbers there. All the best for 2021, Pete. Thanks for the years of riffage!

I dont think 26.5 is considered baritone. I think 27 and above is considered but maybe I'm wrong. If so my bad.

You’ve answered your own question. I always feel that if you have guitars that you don’t play...ever...either sell them or give them to a beginner. You should do some giveaways and hook some subscribers up. There are lots of people out there with Squire, Epiphone, HB etc guitars who could use an upgrade.

I would say anything past 20 and up is too many. You can have one guitar for every single tuning (I group standard with dropped as something you can do on 1 guitar if it's only one step), 2 Acoustics; 1 for standard, the other for lower tunings, 2 Bass guitars for the same reason, a 7 string, (2) 8 strings; one for standard, the other for Rings of Saturn tuning...and that's pretty much all you need. Everything I just mentioned will put you at 17. Add/swap 3 more for preference.

Damn, if I'll ending up buying the Blood moon, it'll be aaaaall your fault!!! 🤩

Single pickup single knob- Kramer Baretta Vintage. Perfect. Bought one new in 1985. Flat mount Floyd. Dives only. No float, no pulling up. Best neck- Jackson Soloist. Ibanez about the same. 6 strings only. 7 string guitars should be banned. BC Rich Mockingbird. Spalted Maple Exotic with Ebony fretboard, 24 frets, and Gibson Les Paul stop bar tail piece. Untouchable.

❤❤❤❤❤

I feel like the only guitar player alive who only wants one good one with all my preferences, and sees no point in having more.

Next time I find a guitar I want, I’ll convince the Mrs to let me have it by showing her video!

I only have 5, good lord dude!

came here to see what the purple guitar was, purple guitar was hidden (ltd sc 607b???)

Idk if it has already been said, but be careful with that open wire on bridge pickup on Ibanez Apex, cuz you risk destroying said wire. Take care bruv

One is too many and a million is not enough. Musical equipment can definitely become an addiction. I'm an addict myself. Hey, there are worse problems to have.

Unless you NEED to get rid of any of them, you should keep. There are only 2 guitars I've ever sold, that I don't regret selling. Every other guitar I've sold, I've regretted selling.

Lucky for me, I SOLD two guitars last month! And then, I used that money to buy another one.... 10 guitars in total....WTF am I going with my life?

JEALOUSSSSSSS. Wish I had half that many.

Please. Take proper care of that APEX. It's an absolute beauty and deserves to be maintained a bit better.

For me, anything that does not get played for more than 1 year goes, although I am hanging onto a couple good ones for my grandson. I generally keep anything that gets played at least once a year.

A lot of great guitars. Just gotta say, 26.5 is not a baritone scale though. 27 and longer are baritone. The Sixty Six, amaroks, and the Tremonti se hardtail are my favs.

Dang Pete, I have only a fraction of what you have and sometimes I think I have too many... Time to open a reverb store? 🤔

Check out Dave Jennette's video on how many guitars you need :-)

I had the same luck with trem-no. Could have been engineered way better. Think precision, adjustable, two way, sealed hydraulic cylinder... In all fairness the tech at the time they made it was not there yet, not sure what's stopping anyone today tho... :)

Never Enough man!

If you ask me. You can never really have too many guitars. But that's because I also own a few. 16 to be exact (electric, bass, and acoustic). 😂

Funny story, I also have an Ibanez RG350DX with a broken trem. My buddy has the exact guitar in a different color. Also with a broken trem.... Yeah, I'm starting to see a pattern here.
