I agree that stewardship is the angle you’re best to approach your collection from. My favorite instruments are ‘well worn’. One can see the hours put into them. I treat them as a tool, whatever their initial pedigree or cost.
I gotta say, tho, my Hammond definitely could use some stewardship. Goddamn, I have neglected proper service for too long. And I am too lacking in time to properly service it myself. Fortunately, my piece is not so sacrosanct that I need worry much that I am neglecting an irreplaceable heirloom.

They are tools. They move air and/or electrons. I use them to make noises that appeal to people.

Of course!
What a wonderful world, where movements of air can effect a whole conglomerate of folks.
Q should have predicted this. @srayzie
