At that rate they could flog them off at the gate after the show.

But if he sold all his guitars the value of each would drop markedly.

And I, I am feeling, a little peculiar

He's already done it :)

But yes you raise a valid point, and one that needs to be factored into the equation.

I was thinking you could make a formula on celebritywowrarecollectibleness of a celebrity owned gat - sort of like:

If we use a scale of 1 to 100 as a multiplier scale for the value factor that it is multiplied by after the said Eric/Steve/Richard/Keith plays it. Let's call it a Jimi and assume say Jimi has a ranking of 100.

Then we'd have to factor in the health of the artist - from vibrantly alive to dead say 1 to 0. We'd have to call that a Keith. Obviously if somebody is nigh unto the point of death and scoring 0.1 Keiths then the likelihood of there being no more celebrity gats from this person becomes high and the wowrarecoleectibility factor becomes higher. We'd also have to have a factor indicating the silliness of youth that encourages one to do things that result in potential spontaneous demise. Call that Y, for both Youth and the chromosome.

So:

Assuming
CelebrityWowRareCollictible factor = CWRC
Initial Value =v

we have

CWRC = v * (J - (K * 10 - Y))/100

Simple really

Don't forget to add in the 'colonials' factor - ie the Yanks. This is O for OTT * T for too much money * J for keeping up with the Jones'. Thus the multiplier is OTJ, which is normally a W factor.
