Thanks for the heads-up. My daughter has inveigled me into taking her to NY this summer, and now I actually have something to look forward to doing while we’re there!

I love the Met and would love to go to this.  When I was there they had a "history of Martin" exhibit, including Clapton's 000 from the Unplugged concert. 



Interesting thy have some of the Stones' stuff - I saw that LP in Nashville last summer, having had it on my bedroom wall through my teens

And just seen they have the Edge Strat and Springsteen’s Esquire. 

I might need to go back to New York!

Take a spare cloth to wipe all the nose marks & drool off the cases.

I'm certainly not a fan of art museums - But I would enjoy a trip around that museum

Is the Guitar Museum still open and running in Sweden ? - Anyone know - Anyone visited it yet ?

Looks fab. I'd only want to pick up and play the things though! That '58 burst. Maybe a quick smash on Ringo's $2m drum kit

I saw that last week actually.  It's much smaller collection than you'd expect.

Interesting selection, but the attraction is limited for me if you can’t play them. Of course that’ll never happen.
