Nothing wrong with that, unless you're gigging. At an absolute minimum, you need a second electric as a backup. I never play without a backup, even in church. And if I have a really big stage I might even bring a second backup.

And being unable to play more than one guitar at a time doesn't erase the distinctions between ceramic pickups and alnico, humbuckers and singles, Strats and Teles, 6s and 12s, etc. It's fun to have a lot of different types to play.
