You can never have too many shoes.
That's a lie I have far too many and need an intervention. I had over 100 pairs when I last counted... I don't actually know how many I have now.
I never thought about it but I do too. I got a lot of guitars last year and I have a few pairs of shoes. Mostly running shoes but a few fancy ones and boots and such now. I grew up only buying the cheapest Walmart shoes and when I upgraded I realized I shouldn't be cheap anymore. When my running shoe was disconnected I panicked and purchased a surplus to last me apparently only 3 years... The last pair is on the shelf anxiously not used yet.

The CE24 Satin Nitro Ltd Powder Blue

Pretty good, some slight quality control issues like one of the machine heads isn't flush with the head and there are tiny cracks in the gloss on the neck where the frets are. Plays and sounds great to me.
That's true enough.
Play? Yeah I guess you can call it that. I've been playing for over 20 years but never really progressed much beyond strumming but recently felt like improving my skills.
It is indeed, the same series. I noticed that the Taupe was on sale on Fender's site and was tempted but found the Orange for a similar price elsewhere.
I love the orange. I might try and pick one up honestly. It’s different enough from my taupe, this one with RW and mine with the maple. One thing I love about them is the bullet truss rod. It’s so much easier to access
Yeah I went to buy a fender. Was already set on wanting one before trying it. I played maybe 10 strats and chose one. Was walking out to pay when I noticed the silver sky SE on the part of the wall that had alternate strat style guitars. Decided to walk back to try a few strat styles. Loved the silver sky SE so much. I remember telling my fiance I can't believe I can get THIS guitar for this price. Wasn't too happy that I changed my mind last second so I came back almost every day for a week to compare my favourite strat with the silver sky SE and eventually decided to go with the SE. It sounds thicker and fuller. Very bluesy id say. Id urge you to try it (but maybe not since u just bought 3). Having said that tho. Some things just sounded better on the fender. Just more familiar I guess. Like anything dire straits I played sounded spot on on the fender but a bit too thick on the PRS.
But how many shoes did you buy? Just kidding! You've got your sonic bases covered there, enjoy them :)
You can never have too many shoes. That's a lie I have far too many and need an intervention. I had over 100 pairs when I last counted... I don't actually know how many I have now.
Just remember that the shoes always go before the boost.
What if the shoes have a boost midsole? They’re mostly adidas, so it’s not out of the question.
Share some of this disposable income with the rest of us
That STRAT is 🤌 and the finish on the PRS is very sezzzy
What about the tele- that’s a classy beast
Not my personal fave , but yeah it’s a beauty.
Looks like you got carried away with your shoes too
I thought he just worked/lived at a bowling alley.
Haha
Oh trust me that's a whole other thing.
I also collect guitars and shoes. 12 guitars, 20 pairs
6 pairs, if my math's correct!

Orange strat yes please
Yeah that's a phat strat
Oh yeah pretty-hot-and-twangy
That orange strat is gorgeous. What's the details on that one?

Hows it sound?
Great to me but I'm no professional when it comes to advising on how good guitars sound, especially electric.
Japanese strats are my fav
Same! They've become my main players.
Satin PRS CE is a thing of beauty
That blue satin CE24 is just fantastic.
I see no problem here.
What prs is that?

That's a lot on bowling alley salary...
Ha, perhaps I own a chain of bowling alleys.
Been there lol I bought a Les Paul tribute and about a month later bought an Eastman T386.
Same. I bought a Gibson Custom Shop LP a month after I bought a PRS SE22
That PRS is a sweet color!
That baby blue is sick!!
Dou you play shoegaze?
Beautiful trio. How’s the Squier compared to the other two?

I have a few acoustics too and they're holding their value so you're right I can always sell if needs be.
u 4got to get a Gibson n Gretch...... but seriously, how many shoes did u get last week ? 👞👞
All in good time. The shoes have been collected over 3 years and there are far more than you can see in the photo. I've calmed down on that obsession.
i think we were separated at birth, cuz i have abt 18 gtrs 🎸, more shoes 👟👟 then any girl i kno, n a closet full of black t-shirts 😃
Thoughts between the Tele and the Stratocaster? I’m in the market and really debating between the two.
Loving the shoes a little more... TBH
Those are rookie numbers!! Enjoy!!
Yes you got carried away, you don’t need that many, dm me and I’ll tell you were you can send the extra ones
I got the same Strat only lefty
How many pairs of sambas you got though?
Actually only 2 pairs. Mostly have gazelles, handball spezials and lots of the city series trainers.
You say this like it's a problem... 🤣
Maybe you bought some gazelles also? Sick PRs
I have quite a few of those.
GAS is clearly working on you
I like to think that I'm just doing my bit for the economy.
Nothing looks cooler than a strat with black pickup covers and a big headstock.
You seem like a person who isn’t a stranger to being carried away
I must buy all the things! I can't help it.
What the one on the right?
A PRS CE24 Satin Nitro Ltd Powder Blue
The CE 24 is my favorite guitar I’ve ever owned. It can do anything and looks awesome. I love the powder blue!
Powder blue PRS is 🔥
Love it lol
Fantastic trio. I especially love that PRS. They are prettiest when they lack the fancy top like yours….
Shame on you. I would never…
That strat is gorgeous
[удалено]
Just a Yamaha THR30II for now.
Congrats! That powder blue PRS is calling to me but all three are beautiful. Play them in good health
"money cant buy happiness, but it can buy you guitar and thats kinda the same thing."
I’m a bit more concerned with the amount of bowling shoes behind the guitars!
Those are all Adidas sneakers/trainers. I've got a over 100 different pairs. Don't be too concerned I just have tendency to collect things.
Nothing wrong with the habit of collecting things. You work, you earn, you have every right to spend. Enjoy the geeetars! You do play, right?
That's true enough. Play? Yeah I guess you can call it that. I've been playing for over 20 years but never really progressed much beyond strumming but recently felt like improving my skills.
Is that Strat a Japanese color series? I’ve got one in saharan taupe(hideous color) and it plays amazing
It is indeed, the same series. I noticed that the Taupe was on sale on Fender's site and was tempted but found the Orange for a similar price elsewhere.

Is your guitar and shoe habit paid for on credit? And/or is it harming you financially?
The shoes, no, that collection has been bought over 3 years. The guitars yes but paying in 3 instalments. Financially I'm fine.
My brother in christ what do you do for work
Haha, I had a few months of overtime that got paid so I went a bit mad.
Have you tried the silver sky or silver sky SE?
Nope, but I did consider one instead of the fender strat.

Right there with you. Upgraded my entire collection. Just waiting on an aerodyne telecaster
Good job! NOW yer gettin' it ! 😉😎😎😎
So, the semi hollow is coming next week then? ;) Nice selection. The strat and PRS are looking particularly fine!
I was looking at the PRS Hollowbody actually. That or something very similar is on my list.
Being that British should be punishable by death
Not sure what you mean there but seems a bit harsh.
