I admit that if I was not married to a conservative businessman I would probably have reached this point in my life without a penny to my name (despite the fact I have always had a career).
However, it also means I have to somehow justify spending a LOT of money (even if I keep my budget to 1K) on a very SMALL instrument when I've already spent a lot of money on 2 guitars. Said spouse (a practical man not driven by passions so cannot empathize with MAS) while very supportive of my duo endeavor, will not understand why a gigging guitar player would want/need to pursue a less common instrument (at which she will probably not be very proficient).
For those of you partnered with non-musician mates....how do you keep explaining/justifying the need to explore another avenue in your personal musical journey?
I'd love to buy a $3000 instrument but I am wondering how I'm going to even explain the $1000 choice.
