However, they also come to see the product of twenty-five years collecting vintage instruments: Dave Roger’s personal collection, which is open to the public to view. This ever-expanding collection includes over 300 vintage guitars and approximately 100 amps, and it features a stunning array of custom color Fender Stratocasters, Black Guard Telecasters, dot-neck Gibson 335s and so much more. For instance, the collection includes a 1959 flame topped Gibson Les Paul, a very rare find, for which current market value is somewhere between $300, 000 to $500, 000.
The general, guitar-enlightened public isn’t the only demographic that knows the magic and reputation of DGS. An impressive list of guitar legends and nationally (even internationally) known recording artists and performers has visited or purchased guitars and amps through the shop. Some of these notables are Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Joe Walsh (Eagles), Eddie Vedder (Pearljam), Rodney Crowell, Vince Gill, Michael Martin Murphey, Elliot Easton, Faith Hill, members of Pink Floyd, Kentucky Headhunters, Little Big Town, Everclear, Night Ranger, REO Speedwagon and Def Leppard. The Rolling Stones once bought an amp for Keith Richards, and in 2004, at the original Crossroads Show in Dallas, a 1954 custom Gibson Les Paul was sold to Eric Clapton. It was a particularly proud moment for Rogers, an accomplished blues guitarist himself, who has always held up Clapton as a favorite influence and personal hero.
