If you Sell a guitar - that means you can buy another, right???

I remember GE Smith playing a Blonde Epi Sheraton on Saturday night live but can not find a clip or picture of him playing it.
This is supposedly that guitar or one of the same year:

Just found this - which is the GE Smith owned Sheraton:
GE Smith's 61.jpg
Whether or not you like GE Smith it was the first time I ever saw one of these - which was on Saturday night live.
I think he now owns a 62 in Red.

Amos Garrett played an Epiphone Sheraton of that era on that phenomenal original lead cut on "Midnight at the Oasis"
Super tasty riffs on that cut - hec even the chord work.

Funny how many of us seem to buy guitar we used to have years ago.
Here's my Sheraton from way back I regrettably let go.

Beautiful guitar, F-30. I always recommend to folks that they hold on to their early purchase(s) or family guitars because of sentimental reasons. I would even say don't sell it/them to fund another, as likely you'll have some remorse someday. E.g., I never play my mother's Favilla C-5 classical anymore, but I learned on it, and I know I'd regret selling it. Also, I would never sell my Ibanez Artwood 12 string even though I've got a bunch of great 12-strings in the collection now -- because it was my first new purchase!
