Hello,

If you should choose between the Gibson models which 10 would be the most collectible?

Thanks,
Jonas

For me,
1. Byrdland (Ted Nugent)
2. 335 or 345 (Alvin Lee)
3. Explorer
4. Upside-down Firebird (Johnny Winter)
5. Thundebird bass
6. Melody Maker
7. Tiger top Les Paul
8. 6 / 12 Twin Neck (Jimmy Page)
9. Dove Acoustic
10. Any Mandolin

Thing is, they're not for looking at, or for "investment", THEY'RE FOR PLAYING!!!!

What about the double neck 12 string, six string like jimi used in the song remains the same?
