and the guitars all sold for more than what the expected price ranges were. They estimated that the famous strat would go for about $20,000. I think the acoustic used on Wish You Were Here went for around a million dollars. There's a ton of history on that black strat
Ringo had a big auction a year or two ago for charity. Think Irsay snagged the original drum head from Ringo’s Beatles kit with the trademark dropped T logo.
I appreciate that he appreciates this stuff, but boy, it must be great having NFL owner moohlah.

but when in Seattle a couple weeks back I visited the Museum of Popular Culture founded by Paul Allen and was seriously impressed with the collection of guitars on display there. If you have the opportunity and like seeing these choice instruments, I highly recommend it.
A lot of the guitars mentioned on this thread are there. Plus so many amazing others, from Berry to Jimi to Jimmy to Duane. Guitar geek heaven! Guitar Heaven - ( New Window )

Doesn't mention it going to Pete Ham in the article below, but at that price, I'm guessing it's the same one.

Same guitar George later gave to Pete Ham? If so, guess the Ham estate needed the cash... Hope they got a great price for it.

Sounds like a good price for Irsay considering the history of the guitar.
Haha, I kinda agree, but which one? Any of them?

Ha. Any of them, but I was referring to the black Strat in particular.
