"To celebrate Strummer’s fierce sense of individuality, "

buy a guitar just like his!

This is the ultimate irony, IMO. I am a huge Strummer fan, and I would love the artwork collection that comes with the guitar, but I would be ashamed to be seen with this guitar.

I love you, Joe. Sorry they're trying to market your ghost, brother.

(hate to see this sort of relic, faux-worn, tribute rubbish)

I agree Joe wouldn't enjoy this.

He would probably prefer they bloody leave him alone and go sell these:

If you want a beat up guitar that makes you look like you've been banging away on stage for years, then quit your job, divorce the wife, disown the kids and hit the stage. After 20 years of gigging every night you'll have a guitar that looks like this, too.

Remember, kids, you can't buy cool and cred; you have to earn it.

That goes for you Harley riders, too.
