I have a pix of him with what looks like the Hofner and Mississippi John Hurt, Hurt's wife at a festival - the guitar has a pickup.

Knowing a bit about Fred's personality I reckon he would have preferred to have had his guitars played and appreciated than stuck in some dusty museum.

Knowing a bit about Fred's personality I reckon he would have preferred to have had his guitars played and appreciated than stuck in some dusty museum. Jeez I don't know about that. He left the gear to his wife. I would think if he had a preference for it to be played by others after his passing he would have expressed it, giving some instruction. IMHO his musical instruments were a part of his identity and hope whoever they wind up with with shows respect and preserves the instrument. I would prefer that it were in a museum so no else could be identified with it, and curated, and available for viewing to a larger audience than private ownership is going to allow. Only one person in the world I want to hear on Fred's gear and he's gone. RIP.
