I'm just coming down from a decade-long eBay-enabled GAS bender. I have multiple electric, acoustic, and bass guitars... as well as many amplifiers. A lot of the guitars are good Japanese copies of vintage models (Tokai, Fender Japan, Yairi, Asturias, Takamine). I also have a couple of Martin 16 Series acoustics and a U.S.-made Larrivee. And a couple of Danelectro basses, plus a Danelectro 12-string electric. My best amplifiers are a 1965 Supro Trojan and an old Roland Jazz Chorus 77.
Since I became afflicted with UAS a couple of years ago, I have acquired seven ukuleles. Although, my most recent purchase -- a Kiwaya KTS-4 (MIJ, solid mahogany, featherweight replica of a vintage style 0 Martin) -- is so good that it's really diminished my new-uke cravings. I think I'll be satisfied until I can save up for a KoAloha or Kanilea tenor. (Well, maybe I'll buy a Firefly in the meantime... especially if I can find a used concert model for a decent price.)
The only guitars I'm still drooling for are a Rickenbacker 12-string electric or a Martin D-35.
