Is BAS as prevalent as GAS?

I've owned 100s of guitars, amps, mandolins, accordions, saxes and, yes, even banjos since 1963.  I sold my A+ collection when I moved back from Tokyo in 2000 so I could buy a house.  But I still I keep some accordions, guitars, a mandolin, two fiddles and a bass around the house to keep me entertained.  GAS= guitar acquisition syndrome. 

 

How about the same disease for banjos -- BAS?  Do you folks who have played a while keep a stash of banjos?  Do you have some for one tuning and or another?  Last banjo I had was a Rich &

Taylor back in the '90s.  Weighed a ton.  I had some Stewart banjos in the '60s but the honkytonk life took me away from acoustic music most of my following years.  I saw a Tubaphone for $4K and after hearing one on youtube thought maybe that would be a cool axe to have.

 

So... if you were to have, say five banjos including your current rig, what would they be?  (And for those of you with way more than five, my apolgies.)
