Last year I went to the Songbird Guitar Museum on Chattanooga TN. It was pretty cool - didn't have all the off beat stuff but I'd had no idea Fender and Gibson (and others) had so many variants.
Some beautiful instruments but I was horrified by the Firebirds that just had necks bolted on.
But the T-Bird bass guitars were something to see. The curator was a master of detail and anecdote.
