In a display case. Not being played. Hanging next to a Silvertone. Am I the only one who wants to slap this fool? Peter | ||

Sorry for any confusion, Steve; the fool in question is, of course, Irsay. And I don't care if Django freakin' Reinhardt played it, it's still a Silvertone; doesn't belong with an Irwin & a Martin (unless, of course, all three were David Lindley's  ). Peter | ||

These guitar do get played on occasion. Irsay's hobby is collecting guitars. A friend of mine got to play them on a session Jim hired him for. He also owns a few of George Harrison's guitars. I'll post some pics of those. | ||

$$$$$$ It's all about the $$$$$$ Collectibles are collectibles. That's why people collect them. You think a Ferrari Testarossa wants to be in a museum??? Stephen |
