Great to see these beautiful old instruments full of character and history. Got to say though, I was surprised not to see a single telecaster in there :0{

I love this kind of stuff ... sure it is all sitting in a museum, but it least it hasn't been lost in fires or other catastrophic ends many guitars suffer ... we'd all love to play these guitars, but at least we can appreciate them in a gallery or visiting the Hall of Fame in person, i know I plan on it

Dickey Betts and Hank Jr. - would have been great to be a fly on the wall for that "visit". But giving away a 57 Gold Top? That would have to have been a special "visit" and now it sits in a museum...what a "trip" - someone pass me the mason jar - fill it first please.

I hope those fine old guitars get taken out of their display cases and occasionally get PLAYED - because nothing is worse for a musical instrument than to be left untouched by the loving hands of a skilled musician. While it's nice to see them, it's also sad that they are displayed like dead, stuffed animals. These are beautiful, living, breathing things.

awesome gallery! I think I may be booking a trip to Nashville for soon to check the whole thing out myself!
