Or, applying what I have termed the "Snark Theory", you could get 45 $100 guitars.

Cheap enough to throw away if they break. They would get you close to sounding like a real guitar.

There are enough followers of this method, so show your support.

If I had $4500.00, I would pay off my daughter's braces, pay off my van, add a bathroom to my house, and get a $500 guitar.

Now, who's sending me $4500?

I thought I made up my mind to buy the $4.5K a few years ago. About a year later, I scraped together the cash for one the $1.5K.

My experience aside, get the one 4.5K.

As much as I would love to have a $4.5 guitar I would choose 3 guitars that equaled $4.5.

I don't play well enough to justify spending $4,500 on one guitar. So I'd go for 3x $1,500.

Huh? That actually makes sense to you? How about, "I don't play well enough to justify spending $1,500.00 on three guitars, so I'd just go for one at $4,500.00."

Makes as much sense to turn the statement backwards.

Sounds like some folks on here prefer polygamy to monogamy. I am not in that camp. Give me one fantastic wife/guitar and I'm satisfied. And that pretty much sums up my experience. One fantastic wife, one fantastic guitar. And this bolo paddle. That's all I need.
