I picked up a 1991 Heritage Mark Slaughter at my local GC a couple months ago....I later found out that it was one of Marks personal guitars!
 
I reached out to Mark and he was quite intrigued that this guitar had re-surfaced long after his ex-wife had sold it.  I told him that I was going to be attending his concert in New Buffalo, MI on the 31st of January....Mark was kind enough to invite me backstage after the show so he could check out his old axe!
 
Slaughter is touring in support of Great White and the show was last night.   Both bands sounded great!  I had never been to this venue before (casino venue) it was really nice...about 2400 capacity, sold out.
 
After the show, my good friend Chris and I went back to meet Mark.   Mark was very welcoming and hospitable.   A super nice guy!   He was pleasantly surprised when I handed his old guitar to him....he went on to tell everyone in the room the history of the guitar.   Luckily, another patron in the room took video of the entire thing!
 
I asked him to sign the back of the headstock....and he did so with pleasure.   He hung out for quite a while, chatting and signing autographs for everyone.   It was a great night!
 
When Mark was getting ready to take off I pulled him aside and told him if he would like to have his old Heritage back that I would more than happy to let him have it.   He said, "Brent, I have so many f****ing guitars....you keep it and enjoy it."
