Default Need Help figuring out if I need another Guitar

This one is easy. No. None of us NEED another guitar.

That said, if you want another one, and can acquire it without putting yourself in hardship, get it. Life is too short.

But...Get pro set-ups for all those other wonderful guitars you already have first!

Default Try Vintage

One thing I noticed is you have a very fine collection of fairly recent, very fine steel-stringed guitars and no classic models from the '30s, '40s, '50s, 60s. ... If you must purchase another guitar you may want to consider getting a vintage year model, such as an early '40s Martin dread or a '50s Gibson J-45 or J-50. I want a classic Guild M20 from the '50s or '60s made in Hoboken, New Jersey, which is still affordable, or an old Martin 0-17 or a Martin 0-28 (the model Ian Anderson played in Jethro Tull concerts in the '70s.)

Vintage Martin 0-28 played by Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull (song is "Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day") :
