If you have 3 or more sets of new guitars strings you're waiting to try

If each of your guitars has its own special strap

If each of your guitars has its own capo matching its fretboard radius

If you scream "Martin D-18!" while making love to your wife, you might be a guitar freak.

If you spend more on strings, straps, cases, capos, polish, etc etc than you do on lessons.

If you’re thinking about your next guitar purchase while driving home from the guitar store with your new guitar in the back seat....

..or at least that’s what I’ve heard.

You name your children Martin, Gibson and Taylor - irrespective of sex.
And your two dogs Huss and Dalton.

If your youtube history and recommendations consist of guitar instruction, guitar songs, guitar construction, and guitar gear.. you might be a guitar freak.

And yes my YouTube recommendations tell a tale of guitar/nirvana mayhem.

If you have more guitars on your couch than pillows I suppose you’re a guitar freak.

If you have more guitars than food items in your house...freak.

If you spend more time Toneriting your guitar than playing it.
