@gogachachi, my philosophy on this runs very parallel to that of Poundhound. If you are not taking food off the table; if you're not risking the mortgage (or rent), why not?!?!

I am, like you, probably mediocre at best. And in my case even that is generous.

but I disagree with those that saying more or better guitars won't make you a better player. No, it won't directly. But every time I get a new guitar the enthusiasm promotes my practicing or playing more and, at least for a while, I'm improving.

Go for it! Enjoy!

ditto

In fact, the older I get, the more I believe this general philosophy should be applied to most things in life.

And, I firmly believe that "better instrument" = easier to play = more fun to play = GOAL!
