Yeah, Gretsch bop kits end up with the same people who buy (or maybe they're priced out of their reach now, too) late 50's Les Pauls or a full set of accurate Beatles gear in their man-cave. It's a sensible place to park some of your diversified investment portfolio, and it's more stable and fun to have around than gold bars. One of these will sell for $25k in the next 5 years, or I'll eat my shoe.Maybe they were into music before they took over the hedge fund, maybe they own it and never even see it.There are a few lucky guys here who have these and may have gotten them for a working-man price, but the next owner probably ain't gonna be some starry-eyed aspiring kid with a lotta moxie and a wicked press roll.But nobody is schlepping a RB bop kit on the subway going to a hip jazz gig at a little dive in the East Village. That world is gone.
