My Fender Stratocaster Ed O'Brien edition. Probably the last electric guitar I'll buy in this lifetime.

  Indeed. I bought mine maybe 25 years ago and still play it all the time. I could probably sell it for a lot more than I paid for it, but I’m not going to do that. I’m trying the same thing with a Les Paul now. I’ll let you know how it goes in 20 years.

    That's exactly it, they are all pieces of art regardless of who manufactured them, etc. I'm fairly certain they all appreciate in value, though that's not why I do it. Guitar playing (as well as, probably any and all other instruments) is just good for the brain.

  Guitars in general are a great answer. I have a 72 Gibson acoustic I bought used. Sounds and plays amazing. I see no reason why it wouldn't be passed on to my kids and grandkids eventually.

    I always perceive guitars to be timeless things and there is just something magical about them. I understand that people with greater means and resources will literally accumulate them until the end, but I think I have the right ones. Two steel strings, one nylon string, and two electrics including the aforementioned one.

      5 guitars is a lot! I'd consider that well into accumulation territory.
