Wife out, kids in bed...... let's get the mistresses out and play!!!!!
I left one out though, my Vigier Expert.
I wanted to go through these 4 as they have some overlap and some similarities - and obvious differences.
I only have a modest "collection" - I don't feel that's quite the right word for 5 guitars, but feel very lucky. Lots of fun and variety there.
Also...... these guitars have very different price points..... yet they all can hang out on an even level.
Some quality time with the mistresses.....

I note you are a man of good taste (in my book), because you only use proper leather straps

Almost......
I own one vegan (read vynil) couch strap on my Vigier..... and the blue Aria Pro II RS X80 has a cheap nylon strap, but it sorts of fits the guitar.
A while back I tried a friends guitar with a nice comfy leather strap.... I was instantly converted!
I also believe each guitar must have its permanent strap.

but mine are a random mish-mash, and NONE of them leather... I did finally quit letting my kids pick them out though.
And I also have 5 guitars (LP1, LP2, LP3, Firebird, Accoustic) and I like to refer to it as "my selection" of guitars, as it is certainly not a real collection.

Selection..... i like that concept....Dark Helmet wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2017 4:49 pmI like to refer to it as "my selection" of guitars, as it is certainly not a real collection.
I'd heavily recommend you try a nice 2"/2.5" wide padded leather strap.
They really are super comfy. If the under side if the strap is made out if suede leather, it also presents them sliding too much. Ideal to prevent headstock dive if that is an issue.
But either my 3 leather straps or my couch vegan vynil strap are very comfy, miles head if any classic fender or nylon weaved strap.
Go on.... treat yourself!!!!
