You won't believe this one. Guy went at it with everything he had except taste and common sense.

Abominable. AND it's got 20 bids!!!

Looks like he took coarse steel wool and a belt sander to it......nasty!

And a shotgun...and a blowtorch..and a barbecue grille.

How 'bout that gouged pickguard? What could he have been thinking?

Worse part is, at the price it's going to go for, it isn't worth putting back right...

Oh come on now! THAT is a primo relic job! Who would even want to put it back right? That's gotta be the case, otherwise why would the idiots people be willing to pay so much?

Yeah, that''s the best phony relic job, no one would ever mistake that for the real thing.

It's an Ashtray.

Notice how the words on the headstock and the serial numbers are 'pristine'......so realstic considering the 'wear' elsewhere!

Because they're suckers enthusiasts?

what the hell is THIS?




I can't even figure out what he is trying to replicate.....pick wear? Kids...don't do drugs.

Oh come on, it's obvious! That's from deflecting a bullet at one of those wild "gangsta" concerts (or whatever they call 'em)...

Yeah, the picks go in but never come out!

That's a crying shame...Japanese offsets are really nice instruments. To heck with driver's licenses and gun registration, there needs to be serious restrictions placed on the sale of power tools!!

Maybe that's the Willie Nelson Jaguar?
