Since a studio has so much specialized and custom equipment, a CMEA with some knowledge of and experience with the music industry was given the assignment.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">During the appraisal, the appraiser noted a glass case with a guitar on display. The guitar had been signed by Jimi Hendrix and had a certificate of authenticity. However, the guitar didn\u2019t belong to anyone who worked there, nor did it belong to the owners, so it was considered part of the studio\u2019s equipment.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">That led to a conundrum \u2014 how to appraise the guitar? The instrument itself wasn\u2019t particularly rare, a white Fender Stratocaster. It was vintage, so it would be worth more than the same type of guitar off the rack today. But it had Hendrix\u2019s signature. That definitely drove the value up, but had he owned it? Had he played it? Or had he just autographed it?<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">That\u2019s where the CMEA\u2019s research skills came into play. Using the guitar\u2019s serial number, he was able to determine that Hendrix had indeed owned it. There was no way to be sure whether or not he\u2019d ever played it, but the CMEA did further research to determine the value of such a collectible, and factored it into the appraisal.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A CMEA has a number of noteworthy skills, but chief among them is the ability to perform specialized research.
