Don’t know if this oldest, it’s a mid 80’s Yamaha SE-350. This was my first guitar, I got it on my 12th birthday in 1990. It was originally pearl white but when I was 16 I sanded it down to the wood. I was going to paint it but never got around to it.

Honestly, I don’t really play it anymore, it needs new frets and the electronics need re-soldering. I just can’t seem to let it go.

I’m not :100: sure on the manufacturing date. But that thing is about 150 years old.

@HoofHearted beautiful guitar Dan - i do like the wood look — maybe a little restoration and it could make a come back :thinking:

@acromouse I do love the antique pieces - you’ve kept it in great condition.

I got this for the wife a few weeks ago. The lady I bought it off had it in the family a little over 40 years. So this is now the oldest thing we own

A hope chest (an actual chest) from 1860’s. It was made for a bride who married into our family line and it’s been passed down as a keep sake ever since.
