Excellent observation. I realized this about myself a year or so back... I'd collected a lot of guitars, some reasonably rare, but most of them weren't getting played, and were sitting in their cases or on the wall. Given the amount of free time I have, there's no way I can really play a dozen guitars. I'd turned into a collector rather than a guitar player. So I'm in the process of selling most of them, leaving me with one of each type - 6 and 12-string acoustic, National resonator, a lap steel and an acoustic bass. And the weird thing is that I'm playing more and thinking about the music more and the 'stuff' less. I have a strange relationship with recorded music. I find I know stuff off by heart after 3 or 4 listens, and it lasts in memory. I can replay tracks in my head, separate out the separate instrumental parts... I could sing you the bass lines to any tune from 'Heavy Weather', even though I haven't listened to it for years. And this remembered music plays pretty continuously on my internal player, whether I want it to or not - anyone else find that? There are a few tunes/songs that are in some way 'perfect'... I can listen to them endlessly and they have a physical effect, but they are few and far between.
