But when the baby boomers die, who will be wanting these guitars? This generation's kids don't appreciate these vintage instruments, and if you listen to the music they like, you'll see that they have no sense or appreciation for the finer/more subtle things in life. They like bright new shiny things.
"Hey mom! Check out what I found in the attic - grandpa's old guitar! Look, it's all beat up, probably not worth a lot. Why in the world would he keep in in a glass case? We'll sell it at the garage sale. And what's SRV stand for anyways?"
