Gee. I thought “hey I wonder if it’s the same year as my ‘96?” and then, “no, probably not huh.”

they can't be serious with that estimated value. it's way lower than it should go for.

Silly, really, as if its value is in any way related to its function as an instrument.

exactly. the fact it's a verified played instrument by one of the biggest names and is so pristine looking (to hang on the wall(s)l it inevitably will for the rest of its existence) makes it difficult for me to believe it won't go for anything less than $100k. like, didn't that sweater of his from unplugged go for $300k+? his dingey, smelly, sweater?

If I was a midsize local bureaucrat I'd probably buy it. Or my children would. One of those kids who lives alone in an empty building on Manhattan, which belongs to his family, and who has dual citizenship, will buy it in between playing War Zone and eating cereal.
