    Oh yeah, have I not spoken about this before? Maybe I didn't!

    Anyway, those are old friends of mine! I went to the museum a couple of years ago, and I was lucky enough that one of the twins was there to give me some juicy details on some of the items. So many stories, man!

    It's worth going there for sure - if you are in Europe, make the journey up north and behold the incredible collection of vintage gear (not just guitars).

    Fredrik, who is in the video as well, is a former band member of mine.

    Yeah I took some photos while I was there. I'll see if I can locate them and share.

    One cool thing about the twins is that they do play these vintage instruments too. One of them said, "Well, good guitars should be played regularly. That's the fun part".
