I just had Joni Mitchell sign my old D-28 with a marker. I want to
preserve it the best I can and still play the guitar. What should I do
to keep the guitars value and still be able to play it? Finish over
it? Get one of those clear pickguards or something similar to that and
cover it or what? I need help. In case your wondering how I got this,
I stood outside a small show that she played at in Chicago tonight for
about 7 hours until she came out. She was very gracious to all of us.

Why would you want to deface a good guitar with *any* signature. I wouldnt let
J.C. himself sign mine..............

I believe he was talking about Jed Clampett.

I have an 73 D-18 with about 60 signatures on it.... Guy Clark, the Everley
Brothers, CSN, BB King, Emmy Lou Harris, John Prine, Jackson Browne, Willie
Nelson... Townes Van Zandt... Many more you've heard of, many you haven't.
Don't let anyone tell you a signature on a guitar isn't a good thing.... My
criterion for signing? He or she knocked me out with music...
I've always used a Sharpie... so far, so good. No fading or such... I'm
concerned about Townes signature, though. It's directly under my arm when i
play it, which isn't often.
My experience with most of these folks is much like yours... gracious,
decent, willing to take a moment to chat. Willie, Townes and Guy lead the
league in this dept. email me if you'd like a nearly complete list... I
can't make out one or two....

However, if you were able to get J.C. to sign your guitar could you
trade it for the last home run ball (autographed of course) hit this
year by Mr. McGwire or Mr. Sosa?

Willie Nelson claimed in an interview in Acoustic Guitar, if I remember
correctly, to have "about 100" autographs on his Martin classical, "Trigger".
Also, though not an acoustic guitarist, Joe Osborn, an A-list LA studio bassist
since the '60's, has had many of the stars he's recorded with sign his Fender
Jazz bass. Guess some folks just like to collect autographs on something other
than paper! =:-)

Towards the end of his Presidency, Jimmy Carter flew on his helicopter
to Merriweather Post Pavillion (Columbia, MD) to sing "Amazing Grace" with
none other than Willie Nelson.
