Yeah...I'm getting to that point. I've bought 5 guitars just in the past year...
I'm goin' with these questions here on out. If I can answer 'em to my satisfaction...then sure, get the guitar...
1. Can you really afford it in light of the other bills that you have?
2. What will this guitar/gear give you that you already don’t have now?
3. Do you want this guitar specifically for cosmetic reasons alone?
4. If you bought the guitar, how often would you actually play it?
5. What would you have to sell if you got this other guitar?
6. Would your family members be sympathetic or antipathetic over another guitar purchase?
7. Do you already own a model of this guitar or something like it?
8. Is the price worth it in terms of the quality vs. the features?
9. Sonically, what does this guitar offer that the others do not? (Tone wise, etc.)
10. Do you already own guitars that you rarely or never play? Why don’t you play those guitars?
11. Have you tweaked out guitars that you already own to play and sound as best as they can?
12. Have you played the guitar or something like it prior to considering this purchase?
13. If you're considering the guitar as an investment, would you be able to sell it at a profit after purchasing it and making minor adjustments to it?
14. Do you really "need" this piece of gear?
