Rick Neilson of Cheap Trick has over 250 guitars. Joe Perry has over 150 and Steven Seagal YES that Stevan Seagal has one of the most impressive collections of importance out there.He has ALBERT KINGS 59 FLYING V-his Lucy flying V-and his 60s flying V.He has STEVIE RAYS-Firebird that has STEVIE RAYS,MUDDY WATER,and ALBERT KINGS names carved in it.HE also has guitars owned by BO DIDDLEY,BUDDY GUY,HOWLIN WOLF,STEVE CROPPER AND HENDRIX.Theres a great article in Junes Vintage Guitar mag with Billy Gibbons and Seagal and they show you a lot of his gear and talk guitars .I had known he was a player and collector but not how much he is into it he plays with all the old blues cats and is friends with them all and has a collection worth a couple of million who the hell would ever think that.KEEP ON ROCKIN
