Please tell me that you play the instruments in your collection, not just a collection for a collection’s sake.

Collectors (too often not players) put them in cases for the world to see (calling captain irony - they exist for the world to hear).

I know, I know, it’s a free country, but how ‘bout leaving us players some of the good stuff.

I play every Sunday morning from 11:00 to 12:00. There are intermediate, profesional, premium grade and presentation types of guitars. I play a G&L Strat and Fender Tele on Sundays but there are some presentation guitars you just wouldn't take the risk of putting a ding in them to take them out of the house. Somebody said something about playing in a padded room i.e. 2004 Martin D-100 Delux (first 50 after hitting the one millionth guitar-$50k to $55k).
