Members GAS Man Posted November 15, 2007 Members Share Posted November 15, 2007 As you know IQ is Intelligence Age divided by Actual Age (X 100) So for HCEG, none of us here could be too intelligent , so we need to measure our Guitar Acquisition Quotient Number of Guitars divided by Actual Age I'm at 140, that would make me a border line genius if it were an IQ score but maybe the higher the number on a GQ, the less bright you are, but POST YOUR GQ! Let's see how many "over 100s" we have here and how many smart people we have here with a score that's still under 100 We can maybe certify members with the 100+ GQ membership, like a Mensa club for GAS'rs.

Members Pillimees Posted November 15, 2007 Members Share Posted November 15, 2007 We can maybe certify members with the 100+ GQ membership, like a MENSA club for GAS'rs. FYI, Mensa members need to score in the top 2% of an IQ test, rather than pass a fixed threshold. My GQ is 26.1. Bbreaker should calculate his. I bet it's over 200...

Members GAS Man Posted November 15, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 15, 2007 Should be no frowny faces on lower GQs. That just means you're not as badly afflicted with GAS and you can proudly proclaim, "The Tone is in The Fingers!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Prages I included 2 basses. Left out other stringed instruments (banjo, mandolin, ukelele). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fluoreszenz Posted November 15, 2007 Members Share Posted November 15, 2007 8/27 x 100 = 29.6 200 would be real hardcore, so to keep up, it's like 2 guitars @ 1 birthday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members keNz Posted November 15, 2007 Members Share Posted November 15, 2007 Here's a random thought: Wouldn't it make more sense to divide by the number of years we've been playing? It's not like we were buying guitars at age 1 (except Bbreaker). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mike.sartori Posted November 15, 2007 Members Share Posted November 15, 2007 Ok, I guess I got a 23.9 - still pretty low, but my pedal Q is 52 - which is still pretty low? I guess I need more gear:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roy Posted November 15, 2007 Members Share Posted November 15, 2007 As you knowIQ is Intelligence Age divided by Actual Age (X 100) No it aint, but anyway... 10 guitars (counting acoustics) totaling 346 years, I'm 50 GQ = 346/50 x 100 = 692 Did I do that right?
