Larryz Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Will do Riccardo! However, I'm not much of a world traveler. The museum looks interesting... Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEHpicker Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Wow! These guys (twin brothers Samuel and Michael Åhdén) have been on a mission for several decades to collect some of the rarest guitars on the planet. After exploring the website Don Riccardo posted, I am impressed. Very cool indeed! If I'm ever in Sweden....

whitefang Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 The idea of a guitar museum is intiguing. The instrument has gone through many different periods of change and improvement. Just a cursory internet search can show you how crude and unimpressive they looked( and probably sounded) back in the 19th and earlier centuries to today's high tech mapped out and executed assemblies. With many different models and makers, they make for an interesting art display. Can't much do that with, say, an OBOE museum! Whitefang I started out with NOTHING...and I still have most of it left!

Larryz Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 http://www.guitarsthemuseum.com/static/sv/80/ <--- here's a sample of the museum collection video..."WOW" is not a big enough word! They will have a restaurant, live venue, American style pawn shop, etc...the video is very cool too! Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
