horrific, but oddly intriguing. like a car wreck, or an old woman's vagina.
certainly looks better than a Fender Coronado.

WHAT ARE THIS WEEK'S LOTTERY NUMBERS, OH STRANGE MYSTIC POSTER?

Which lottery my friend? If the fact that guitar costs $20 000 is normal for you, yes I'm very mystic, cause for me it is one of the mysterious riddles in the the world. If the fact that guitar costs $20 000 is normall for you, you don't need lottery, do you? You can buy if you want a guitar that inlaid with diamonds and trimmed with fur and an amplifier with the ashes of Jim Marshall inside it, but a boy with the guitar that doesn't stay in tune will be brighter than you on his worst show. So to avoid such unpleasant situation request warranty from a seller that guitar(amplifier, pedal etc.) will write incredible songs and will play at least no worse than Chet Atkins, in a case of default you will be able to take your money back.

This is a better deal, it comes with an amp for $25,000

That's a bargain, amp itself costs around $20,000. If my memory serves me, it is famous brownface Carton 500, it was beloved amp of 4-year old Clapton.
