wow...I like most martins, but that is a WASTE of ANYTHING used to build guitars...I'm sure they could've built something WORTH $100,000 with that..

whoever the fuck pays $100k for a guitar needs to be dragged out into the street and shot.

This is another reason why taylor's are better with martins.
They don't flood their stock with a bunch of cheap-ass or horrendously looking 100,000 dollar guitars.

this would be an ugly guitar on stage, but for decoration, it would be great to hang out or mount somwhere, but I wouldn't pay that much for it. But, having it in a glass case above the mantel or something, that would be very nice, but for stage no way.
