Plus, he had a newer PA that will probably go to me... I don't want to sell any of this stuff because it was his. Blah!!!

Holding onto your old man's gat is waaaay understandable though, especially since he literally earned his living to support you guys with it. Sentimentality doesn't get much more legit than that. You should never feel any doubt or hoarder guilt about that even if you never play it.
