I wonder how many species are extinct due to the tropical forest logging required to provide him with his many guitars.
A bit of irony here.
No doubt his collection will raise substantial sums for sane climatic causes. That should prevent stumblebums like maggot from acquiring any.
Poor little prat is struggling with a Pacifica. Haw, haw............haw.

Don't they do their concerts at night? A lot of that electricity that they use is generated by coal.

There are actually no species of guitar tone woods that are extinct. Some of them are very heavily controlled though. The most seriously endangered are Madagascar ebony(for guitar fingerboards)and some species of mahogany. Luthiery is NOT responsible for the endangerment of these species, these are beautiful woods in high demand for many purposes.

What it boils down to is, Gilmour said he did this to hopefully have a future where children could play those guitars and sing songs. The future of those guitars is in a vault in some millionaire's basement, where every once in awhile he'll pull one out and continue his 45 year quest to learn Stairway to Heaven, or maybe he'll get into the investment side. And 1954 Stratocaster #0001 belongs in an American museum!

The only interesting thing about that post was the fact that you had to edit.
You "defy me?" That's basically your raison detre LOL
You expect me to know off hand what desirable woods grow in those rain forests sting is always crooning about, yet you didn't.
Practice tip: Your hatred and envy always gets you out over your skis. Have a point before making it.
Or you could simply admit or at a minimum let pass the obvious irony of a rich old albeit thoughtful genius doing good by selling his hardwood guitars to help the ecology.
Think of it as mushroom cap & trade.
well....If you are sitting on piles of cash because you were jetting around the world filling huge stadiums with people to hear you play music loudly - and were also concerned about global warming - you should probably give all your wealth away
Dopey ignorant cunt, Gibson and Fender shit themselves when they realised just how good those guitars were in the late 70s.
