Yeah I agree entirely, it's more the thought of them, just cool to see a quad you can tell has been together for awhile. I actually recently did get an amazingly underrated hollow-body Gibson from '73 I think...I'd call it vintage, but it is in such unbelievable shape I ask myself if it's counterfeit. It's not crisp like it's new, but it's almost flawless. Didn't have the original case, and is not one of the "desireable" models, but I hit the jackpot with it! I really am not into the vintage craze though, by far the oldest musical instrument I've bought, but it's ok since it's like new :wink:
