And the Strat serial number 0001.

I'm glad the money is going to charity. It makes me a little sad when I see iconic instruments go into collections and not played by musicians. At least the money is going to a good cause.

That's a lovely article, thanks for sharing. Wow, I'm humbled by his attitude. I've been contemplating downsizing for a while, this may be just the push I need. The one who dies with the most guitars... ...is still dead! (To paraphrase the best band inspired by Pink Floyd--Marillion)

I've been actively downsizing for several years, but it's a long hard road full of pain and regret.

The woman is a saint and is the subject of worship for my daughters and wife. It's improving my life considerably!

What a great dude. These guitars will fetch a LOT of coin I'm guessing.

Hmmm, that does not sound so appealing

But I admire you for it...well apart from the blue and the no guitars beginning with 'g' rules.

Guidelines like that help to maintain the focus.

I think you could survive with the no guitars beginning with G, Mr Oleg, could you not?!

A fine attitude indeed Oleg; but you have no need to purge just yet.
You are still young.
And your guitars give you joy; not to mention your friends.
That is all that's required.

It's pretty interesting how unsentimental he is about those guitars.

Survive, yes. But I think I'll pick a different letter, since 'G' is your thing. 'X' maybe?

Not really; as he said, they are the tools of his trade. It's the punters who get all dewy eyed about the gear.
