The Collection: Charlie Starr of Blackberry Smoke

Today, we are grateful to venture off the beaten path to meet up with our friend and true Southern storyteller, Charlie Starr - the charismatic frontman for Blackberry Smoke and, lucky for us, a connoisseur of some fine vintage guitars. In this new episode of Gibson TV’s “The Collection,” join host Mark Agnesi to get a close-up look at the guitars Charlie has amassed in his world travels and learn his one rule for collecting: every guitar is meant to be played on stage.
