It would be a nice inheritance for my grandkids.

Like Kevin said, they probably wouldn't even sign it now days. I don't really see the difference in a ball player signing a ball.

I don't think I'm even going to try.



I guess it's the whole value thing. A guitar is more of a personal thing and having a famous artist sign your guitar can be taken as meaning that he's endorsing it.
Some artists might even be restricted from signing guitars cause they're under contract to a different company.
