NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

The cool thing about buying old Gibson guitars is, they already made their margin, waaayyyy back. I’m waiting for them to announce you can only ever buy a lease to “own” a Gibson. And any future growth in the value of the asset is theirs to take their share from. "I can't sell you this guitar,...

Quality control, etc.

Uniclo did some pretty cool ones a couple years ago:

I really like that flying v one

Fixed :wink: :wtf: :lol: Sorry. Couldn’t help it One of my favourite jokes involves someone asking the person at the DMV counter to make sure the spell their name Steven with a V Ok but wouldn’t it be pronounced Veven then? https://external-preview.redd.it/9Ig_S670Vi-V5mklqNDohHAlMto1CL9caDHCquVmtN...

I heard Hitler played one.

Guitars are works of art that also make cool sounds. So they are better than paintings, sculptures etc. Nothing wrong with collecting them. Says the guy who can't play and is thinking about buying another one. Sigh. To be fair though, its easier to ignore a painting if you don’t like it. :P :lol: A...

there's nothing wrong with not collecting them all. It's true, guitars are not Pokemon! But I am predisposed to want one of everything.
