You Are On TITANIC With Your Guitar Collection...
Alright, you are aboard TITANIC with all your guitars. Obviously, the ship's crew will allow you to take only one guitar with you in the lifeboat.
Which one?

My 25 year old Strat.
She has been with me the longest and always seems to do everything right. Incredible guitar.

The heaviest, most solidly built guitar i got, to use as a battle-ax to clear the deck of a life boat……Argh!

Water is cold.

Time to think outside the boat...

They float. So lash them together and tow them behind the boat

This thread is absolutely ridiculous, there are many people on board that can not fit on the life boat. Get each person to bring one of your guitars into the lifeboat. Then push all the people off of the life boat, problem solved and innocent lives saved.

well im somewhat honor bound to save my six string banjo, for one i inherited it from a WWII vet who wanted me to have it and its survived 100 years on this earth so far (it was actually made a year before the titanic so it couldve actually survived it ) so it kinda deserves to make it on that boat, but i would be hard pressed to leave my epiphone masterbilt acoustic behind, i kinda hated that guitar but i fought it and conquered it and now it is probably one of my best sounding instruments. this is an unsolveable dilemna that would require me to push someone off the lifeboat
