I don't really collect guitars.
I collect as many acoustic guitars as I need for a specific purpose. Acoustic guitars are really just tools for me.
I don't collect the way other people do. Some people collect rare guitars, like, 'I have a '54 Strat worth $50,000.' And I don't collect the way Nash does. Nash has Duane Allman's guitar and Johnny Cash's guitar. I bought guitars because they sounded good. I played them, they sounded unbelievably good, and I couldn't resist.
Some people collect this or that. I'm a musician; I collect guitars.
I don't really collect guitars like some musicians do.
I have a couple of nice guitars that I use, but I don't have anything that I collect. I collect a lot of dust in my apartment, if that counts for anything.
The artist is a collector. Not a hoarder, mind you, there's a difference: Hoarders collect indiscriminately, artists collect selectively. They only collect things that they really love.
I love to collect guitars made in the 1950s. I like preserving and playing them.
I collect Hot Wheels. I collect glass. I collect coins. And I collect cards.
I like to go hiking. I like to go rappelling, swimming, biking. I go boogie-boarding. I collect Hot Wheels. I collect glass. I collect coins. And I collect cards.
Little remnants from everywhere I've been are scattered around my home. I collect rocks in a weird way, with stones from around the world as mementos. I've also got three haranas, which are little guitars.
I don't touch electric guitars. It's just not my thing - I stick with acoustic guitars only.
Without question Gibson guitars are the finest, most revered guitars on the planet.
I collect dice and I collect coins. I travel the world so I love dice, I always have dice on me. I collect magnets as well.
I'm not too picky about guitars. I love to collect them, mostly oddballs, but I'm not married to any brand or model. Whatever guitar has the best character for the song is the one I want to use, because if you've got a style, you're going to sound like yourself no matter what guitar you play.
My philosophy is, honestly, never collected anything that I don't play. I know a lot of people that collect guitars, but for me, I want instruments that I play. And if I don't play them, I don't' want to have them sitting in a closet collecting dust.
