    1. Yes, it is “a second hand guitar with a whammy bar” – you can see it in the photo. All Strats come with whammy bars except for the “Hardtail” Strats designed for better tuning stability. (And, yes, I know you were joking!).

  1. It’s too bad the collection could not be kept by the Irsay daughters and displayed in a new museum. It would have been one more reason. for visitors to come to Indianapolis.
