Re: Guitar Acquisition Syndrome

Currently have one of those (hoick-ptui) plastic bodied semi-acoustics in the loft, A Crafter. https://live.staticflickr.com/8614/16240828160_607f41817d_z.jpg I must ge...

Does that make me a bad person for buying a guitar as art? It's on a minimalist stand in the living room. I might get aro...
