Priced up twice as high, just to keep up with the competition!

Talk about air guitar! That one looks like about 1/4 to 1/2 air ...

What is the resonant frequency of the area "inside" the sound hole?

I think the Moody Blues may have already answered that, sort of...

I recall quite a number of years ago a Pete Townshend owned Guild jumbo being sold at auction. Pete had smashed it in a fit of rage during a recording session. What was left of it sold as-is for a pretty hefty price tag. Shortly after it turned up at at a celebrity memorabilia store in Aspen. The price tag was double the auction price.

Perhaps if Guild (Fender) wanted to offer a really authentic PT signature guitar, they could have Pete personally smash each one. Then they could really crank up the price!

And wouldn't Pete enjoy that after all? One would think so! Not a bad job for him, that.

I'm still not getting the Moody Blues song yet, Charly... hmm...

Pete's selling a music software program now. How well do music software programs smash?

Music programs don't smash... they crash!

Especially if they are run using a Windows OS ...
