From newer guitars, I do believe that private stock PRS guitars will increase more easily then other guitars. While there are over 6,000 built already, that by itself, is a tiny number, compared to the total guitars being produced, and due to the special woods, and care in building that the PS guitars get. And, to produce a PS guitar, the cost to the buyer will only rise over time. We won't see this happen, but it is possible that future generations might. anything is possible.
When civilisation collapses and the power goes out permanently your guitars could be very valuable... as firewood...
While this IS a possibility, if one has a generator and gas, it may not be over even after it's over, at least for a little while longer.
As opposed to a generator and GAS, which could mean guitar sales could continue...
By the way, I can play the accordion, so if you want to form a "no one plays these instruments any more" band in 20 years, count me in.
Will people even be playing guitars in 20-30 years?
I hope not. I'm a cheap m@therf@ckin' low-roller-dirtbag.

I think there will be a large element of this. Just being private stock isn't likely to make it valuable - it will have to be a private stock with specific characteristics that are in demand - perhaps wood that is no longer available.I think PS guitars are even LESS likely to appreciate in value - since each one is different (not really, but it IS a "custom" guitar, so I think that's the perception), they will be seen as individuals rather than "the pinnacle of PRS guitars".
I concur with all the posts with this line of thinking. There are always models that "speak to me" more than others -- perhaps those?I think there will be a large element of this.
