Collectibles signed by musicians. What do you have?


After getting a new equipment rack, I needed to change the wall decor.  I found a good spot to hang a guitar on the wall.  

This guitar was signed by the original members of Collective Soul in 1995.  It's been verified by the band.  I had posted a photo as a comment on their Facebook page. Both Ed and Dean Roland liked the post. I thought that was pretty cool. 

I found the guitar at a Guitar Center in Las Vegas.  It's a decent Mexican Telecaster.  It's not something that they sold to the public.  Probably given as a prize, etc. 

I don't have much else.  A Triumph album signed by Rik Emmett. 

I bet some of you people have some cool signed items and stories to go with it.  I would be interested in hearing about it if you care to share.

This isn’t signed, but I own the Suhr guitar shown in the video linked below. He starts playing it around 35 seconds into the video. I think Kevin Skaff got a contract with PRS, so he sold the Suhr. Sweet guitar.

That’s fantastic! You guys have some cool stuff!

Over the years, I’ve acquired a few artist signed things, mostly from being at their show and seeing or meeting them afterwards. 
A signed CD from Mark Wood, CD signed by Amy Helm, a couple of albums signed by Beth Hart, a ticket stub signed by Elton John, a drum stick signed by John Mahon (Elton John Band) that he threw to me, Big, Beautiful Book of Bass book signed by Geddy Lee when I met him, a ticket stub signed by all 4 members of Lake Street Dive, a signed tour poster from the Tedeschi Trucks Band, a photo signed by photographer Lynn Goldsmith (Feet of The Beatles), Pete Best’s signature in a book “Beatles Gear” also signed by author and Chesterfield King member Andy Babiuk, a couple of photographs signed by photographer Baron Wolman when I met him at the site of the original Woodstock concert, and, I don’t know if this counts, but I bought an album from Tim LeFebvre (Who’s Hat is This?) that he was supposed to sign, but forgot. But, I’ve got the mailer he sent it to me in that he had wrote the address!
