Looks like an interesting collection of Gibsons.
Lots of odd ones, too.
That collection is just screaming for an Ovation. If not an acoustic, a Breadwinner for sure. |

Location: Scotland | Those are Buddy Miller's guitars. He's great and likes the oddballs. I spotted about 6 or 7 examples I used to own, and don't really regret selling. But he's giving me serious Lap Steel envy. |

And a Guitorgan! |

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | My first reaction was, so what's the problem? Then I saw the wall of banjos, then the guitars got increasingly more wierd. It looks like a leper colony for guitars. I'm sure there are some real rare gems in there, but some of those models have got to be prototypes and experiments gone mad. Still fun to look at. I could give him some pointers on how to spruce the place up with a little neon. |

Said We don't have the room for any more. I'll have to try a different approach.

Nice collection fun to look at. I could have told you that the "Look, honey, I could be worse" approach wouldn't get you anywhere. Contact me next time. I probably can help you avoid another failed attempt. |

| When he was touring with Emmylou she commented on the fact he could get so many different sounds out of the one guitar that he was using which was good because it meant less stuff to transport.
So I kinda figured he had like one or two guitars and then I see this..lol |
