The family of deceased rock guitarist Ron Asheton changed the locks and hired private security to monitor his Ann Arbor home following a dispute with his personal assistant over the removal of guitars from the house, according to city police.
Asheton's sister and his personal assistant both called police after the dispute broke out in his home.
The personal assistant, who also identified herself as Asheton's girlfriend, told police that Asheton's sister assaulted her during the dispute.
No one was arrested, and the assault allegation remains under investigation.
Officers told both parties to leave the guitars in the home, and their ownership will be determined by either a will or probate court.
Police did not have a dollar figure, but said the guitars are likely quite valuable because of Asheton's notable career. Rolling Stone magazine ranked him 29th on its "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time'' list.

And so the dispute begins. Let's hope it doesn't grow here, but likely it will.
