I tend to agree with Richards. Owning and/or playing a guitar with somebody else's name on it does not make you cool. It does, however, reflects lack of individuality and blind worship for another mortal, and does nothing to improve your playing ability.


The Gibson Les Paul is a signature model. I don't think people that play it were thinking of blindly worshipping anyone, but having a cool guitar.

The same for Strats and Hendrix (or the Strat player of your choice), despite it not having his name in the headstock. Not everyone that got a Strat after him got it because they wanted to copy the man. To me, personality is in the player not the instrument.



Apples and oranges. You are irrationally comparing a manufacturer and their standard models with a copycat facsimile endorsed by a celebrity. My previous response stands on its own merit.


Oh really? Great for you. I don't remember saying your opinion is not valid or calling it irrational though. As I stated "for me..." I just don't see what's the problem in someone buying a guitar with someone else's signature on it if they think it has good features. Who am I to say what people should buy or not? "IMO" goes a long way here...
