I own a guitar repair/mod/setup shop and every single guitar that comes in gets videoed start to finish. I'm one of the only guitar techs that videos client jobs that I know of. I also have a fabulous reputation. Interesting fact: I was able to start my guitar business with a hefty donation from a Leeds fan I never met on another Leeds United forum. He was an ex-pat living in Thailand and had just come into to a hefty retirement package. For anyone interested, this is my channel (Fret Friend Guitar Workshop): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhC7Vph9_UM

Top man Victor. I recently saw that Cobain's guitar went for a small fortune!

Yeah it would do lol: people are daft! It's just wood and metal and some electriccy bits

Don't get me wrong, I love guitars, I love fixing them and I love modding them and I especially love the look on the faces of people's guitars I have restored but heck: get a grip ppl...

Lineage counts, like Kirk Hammet reputedly paying 2m for greeny. Nice to own a guitar played by Green and Moore though.

Yeah I get it: I just think it's a bit daft. I suppose if you've got the money then it's no problem. I own some amazing guitars. Funny you mention Moore as I also own a double-cut USA Hamer (it's a 2006 Studio in Aztec Gold) and it's next level. Gary was one of Hamer's most prestigious endorsers! Hamer USA guitars are (and have always been) my favourite guitars since I came across them in the 80's. I've owned 3: I have just the one now...

Selfish plug: me playing a stunning Peavey Rotor EXP Pro (Limited Edition) Explorer guitar I should never have sold. If this ever came back up for sale I'd buy it back in an instant! Here's a video of me playing it...

Ye had the Hamer on the cover of an album I recall. Probably my favourite player along with Jeff Beck.

Well that could be a thread all on its own. Who's guitar would you have, perhaps a top 3? I would have said Hendrix, but you'd be hard pressed to find one intact!
