I've bought lots of guitars over the years.
Some new, many used.
It's fun to have a factory fresh guitar... knowing you're the first to plug in and play it... and the shiny finish, frets, electronics and so on.
But there's a higher cost to new guitars, they often depreciate quickly in value, and if you grow bored with them, you'll almost never recover the initial cost.
So, for me, I'll mainly be acquiring used guitars. Sometimes I will need to do a minor upgrade or repair... but that cost is typically minor. Usually, the used guitars I end up buying are fine and don't need anything.
Plus, they already have mojo!
How 'bout you?
