I bring an acoustical guitar each year that I keep in my tent. It's never been stolen or damaged from the heat.
It only cost $100 brand new but it sounds great for the money. I would never bring an expensive instrument. I have a $800 Ovation that I leave at the house. The $100 guitar is for "bumming around". It wouldn't be too much of a loss if it did get stolen or damaged.
So don't bring an instrument you can't afford to lose or get damaged.

^^^pretty much nailed the nail on the head
I've brought my drum past couple of years and I've had freinds that brought they're cheaper acoustic guitars and just locked them up in the car during the day, never had a problem.

I'm always afraid to lock my guitar in the car because I'm afraid the heat would warp it. I guess you guys didn't have any trouble with that?

Crack your windows. The only reason it would warp from the heat is if it was being baked in your car, and as long as you have your windows cracked then their should be some airflow, and no warping

I thought about cracking my windows but then I have to worry about really skinny wooks. ;D

Bring a cheap guitar, keep it in your tent not your car.
Thanks, i think this is what I'll do....can't say i will play it much but I'm sure somewhere through out the weekend i'll have a moment of inspiration and would hate not to have a guitar if that moment should arise ;D
I'll be bringing my swinette. It's just a pig, but I blow through its ass.hole and play different notes using the snout and mouth. It sounds terrible.
Edit: My pig's name is Keith.
We have to get together and jam. The swinette sounds great when accompanied with a baboonica, it's a stringed instrument made from the tautly strung nuts of a striped-ass baboon.
I don't care what you say about me, just spell my name right---P.T. Barnum "As I was walking up the stairs I met a man who wasn't there He wasn't there again today I wish to God he'd go away."
There are very talented musicians at the farm. We're all paying good money to see them. Please leave your acoustic guitars at home - I don't need to hear some hippie warbling an off-key and poorly-played version of "Uncle John's Band" at 5 AM.
While we're at it, let's just leave the drums home too, okay? I think it's about time we all admit that drum circles are generally just unorganized noise. If I want that, I'll go to the Animal Collective show.
ppsshhh..I'll play you the whitest version of the Redemption Song you ever heard and you'll love it

Great idea. Just watch out for those exotic animal laws. I don't know the specifics for the striped-ass.

Porbably true that you won't play them much, but one of my favorite campsite memories was when two guys at a nearby site played some great instrumental tune with guitars and harmonicas. When they were finished, all the neighbors in the other camps (about 30 people) broke out into applause. The guys looked a little embarassed because I don't think they thought people were paying attention to them, but they just blushed and stood up and took a bow.

This is a call of arms to live and love and sleep together.
i'd love to hear that....
