Famous Collectors: Take A Peek At John Mc Enroe’s Guitar Collection





John Mc Enroe, the seven time Grand Slam singles winner and for four years was the number one ranked tennis player, is also a guitar player and guitar collector.

 John Mc Enroe is known more as an athlete. His foray into the music scene, singing and playing guitar together with his band known as the Johnny Smyth Band led him to spend many years touring and performing in several clubs around the world.

He picked up the guitar as a way to kill downtime during his tennis pro days. His first guitar was an off-the-rack black Les Paul custom. He had played alongside everyone from Carlos Santana, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood of the Rolling Stones.
His involvement with music resulted in one of the most impressive guitar collection an individual could own.

Investment value is the main factor when it comes to buying and collecting guitars according to John. He first and foremost wants to buy something he would want to play.
