Who's got the oldest s**t?

I used to own a '68 Framus Studio hollowbody probably oldest guitar gadget besides a '78 MXR dis+, I don't even really use it much but I paid $25 for it when i was 13 and like having it haha.

My dad has an 1890s Remington Model 4 from his father.

As far as musical stuff goes, I have a '66 Fender Precision bass, '66 Fender Duo-Sonic II, and '67 Fender Bassman head.

I got the Duo-Sonic and the Bassman before vintage prices shot through the roof (early '90s), and I got a phenomenal deal on the P-bass because it had been poorly refinished with what appeared to be house paint and a crappy aftermarket pickguard. I stripped it and refinished it with black nitrocellulose lacquer and installed a period-correct tortoiseshell pickguard, so now at least it looks like it should. Always played/sounded awesome though regardless of what it looked like.

Forgot that I had this:



It's iron, coated on both sides with porcelain.

I got some rocks in my back yard that are pretty old.

It's not about how old your shit is.
It's about where you have taken it and what you have done with it.

I got a 1959 edition wife. Not so old to me because I'm also a 1959.

Old Kodak and Zeiss folding cameras, a 1950's Burke & James Press 4x5 camera, some old blacksmithing tools that my maternal grandfather had made before the war. WWI that is, the one he served in with the 21st Engineers, in France.
