Neal Schon Net Worth $30 Million
Neal Schon was lucky to be born into a musical family – his father Mathew Schon was a famous musician and mother Barbara Schon sang in a band. So Schon picked his first guitar at the age of five years, and starting at early age is usually a way to success. His first career steps started at the age of 15 with the band Santana, in preference to joining Eric Clapton in the band Derek and the Dominos, and debuting with some vocals on Santana’s album Santana III. Being such a great musician at such young age with the possibility to choose between two iconic bands, he went on and started making his money. He also played for Azteca but very briefly.
In 1973 Neal Schon formed his now legendary band Journey. He subsequently released five solo albums, and fourteen studio albums with the band. This must be the main flow into his net worth. Importantly, he is the only band member who has not changed through the years. He has taken part in every tour of the band, and sang on all their albums, so no doubt this longevity with Journey has increased the overall amount of Neal Schon’s net worth as well. Apart from this, he has also collaborated with famous musicians such as keyboardist Jan Hammer, Sammy Hagar and Paul Rodgers on short-term projects.
Neal Schon is as great a vocalist, as he is a guitar virtuoso. Two talents double the money earned, does it not? Let’s talk about his musical influences, of whom there were plenty. He has said that he was highly influenced by the 1960’s, musicians from that era such as Gladys Knight and Aretha Franklin. Then he put some blues to the mix, namely B.B. King and added some guitar-based influences, including of course Carlos Santana and Eric Clapton as well as Wes Montgomery. This is probably Neal Schon’s key to fame – adding the best ingredients from different musical eras.
Schon was always proud of his guitars. He started with acoustic Stella guitar followed by Gibson ES-335. At present he became interested in Xotic guitars. Schon was inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame in August 2013, which made him, if possible, even more famous. This is considered to be an accomplishment of a lifetime for any musician.
In his not-so-private personal life, Neal Schon has married five times, first to Tena Austin(1976-86), then Beth Buckley(1987-92), Dina Gioeli(1993-99), and Amber Kozan(2001-08). In 2013 he married Michaele Salahi. He has five children.

John Frusciante Net Worth $23 Million
His both parents had musical careers but at the early age they separated and John grew up with his mother and later, stepfather. Throughout life they were moving quite a lot to different states and cities. However, at nine years old his family settled in the Los Angeles area and that was when he started playing guitar. At first his interest was fixed on punk rock music, later he focused on famous guitar players, like Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, David Gilmour and Jimi Hendrix. When he discovered Frank Zappa, he could try to reach the same level of mastery for hours. Around 1984 he discovered the band Red Hot Chili Peppers and instantly became a fan. At sixteen he dropped out of high school and moved to L.A. to work on his guitar playing skills. He tried studying professionally at the Guitar Institute of Technology but dropped out understanding that academic studies were not for him.
John Frusciante became member of Red Hot Chili Peppers at eighteen and this was the beginning of his professional music career. By the way, he was the youngest band member, gapping about twenty years from others. This did not stop him from winning the audition and bringing fame and money to the then not very popular band. The first album they produced was called “Mother’s Milk” in 1989. In 1991, a very successful album of the band was released titled “Blood Sugar Sex Magik”. The band gained overwhelming success and because of it, John Frusciante left the band one year later after the release of the mentioned album.
Knowing the history of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, you could understand the reason why the young guy got into drugs. The band’s lead singer, Anthony Kiedis describes their past time activities in his biographical book “Scar Tissue”. Being so young and inexperienced, John got instantly addicted, was practically thrown out of the band and started his solo career. During that he burned down his house and had many visits to rehab. The solo projects he released during that time were called “Smiles from the Streets You Hold” and “Niandra Lades and Usually Just a T-Shirt”. In 1998, it was announced that 16 million copies of his solo records were sold. Today he has 10 solo albums released. Drugs did not stop him from getting near the money.
Besides solo career and Red Hot Chili Peppers, John Frusciante has also collaborated with many other acts, such as Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, The Mars Volta, Josh Kilingoffer and many more. The collaborations, of course, also added up to his net worth.
