It is important to note that each of these guitars were either store bought prior to getting autographed, OR, purchased directly off an artists website OR paid for and obtained directly from the artists at a “meet and greet”.  None are stage used.

Many consider a signed guitar the “Holy Grail” of a celebrity autograph.

I always considered guitars a pain to carry and getting in the way of other items so much easier to get signed. Further, holding on to a guitar stands me out in any crowd. Though celebrities quickly judge that the guitar “must be” a resale item and will often (especially now) not sign a guitar or guitar parts, I really for the most part no longer deal with or collect signed guitars.

Its just not worth the aggravation.

(unless paid through a concert Meet & Greet or similar)

Personally signed by Robin Zander at the Wiens Winery on Friday September 12, 2014, in Temecula, Ca., during a solo concert of “The Robin Zander Band”.

Robin, though a bit reluctant at first thinking that this guitar would end up on Ebay, did agree to autograph it after some convincing (and begging) and seeing my wife’s honest face and pretty smile. Robin Zander continues to show why he is one of R&R’s most generous and friendly autograph signers.

OBTAINING A SIGNED GUITAR was never an easy autographed item to obtain.

Due to the size and weight of the item, even back during the 1980’s and 1990’s when many celebrities were willing to sign them, it always was a burden to get signed.

Now however, it is almost impossible to receive a signature on a guitar. Most celebrities and their staff feel it is an automatic resale item on Ebay OR the celebrity sells guitars themselves, official and first hand reproductions/signature guitars, through their website.

Official signed and signature guitars sold through an artists websites are indeed a very nice piece of memorabilia to own, but can be extremely pricey. Thus, the reason most will no longer sign guitars for requesting fans.
